Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average life span of HVAC equipment?
Most systems have a lifetime of 10 to 20 years. As your air conditioner or heater gets older, its efficiency can decrease dramatically. You may notice that it gets noisier and needs repairs more often. When a unit begins to show its age, you have two choices. You can overhaul the system or replace it. Because heating and cooling technologies improve over time, a new system designed with newer, more energy-efficient equipment makes sense, especially if your system is 10 or more years old. We can estimate the cost of a new system as well as a payback schedule that will show you how newer technology will pay you back in lower energy usage.
Why should I purchase a service agreement?
Without warranty coverage, a breakdown can mean significant expense in parts, labor, or both. However, with one of our service agreements, you avoid that unexpected significant expense. While no warranty can guard against every possible problem, we can explain the broad range of protection our service agreements afford.
Why should I buy ENERGY STAR® labeled equipment?
The average home spends about $1,900 annually on energy bills. Heating and cooling accounts for as much as half of a home’s energy use. The Environmental Protection Agency provides important recommendations for energy-efficient equipment, including proper sizing, quality installation and maintenance, and other home improvement considerations to help you get the most out of the heating and cooling products you purchase, save energy, and save as much as 20% annually on your total energy costs.
ENERGY STAR-qualified products prevent greenhouse gas emissions by meeting strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the EPA and U.S. Department of Energy.
What does the Energy Factor on my water heater mean?
The water heater Energy Factor is a measure of the overall efficiency of the water heater. This is determined by comparing the energy in the heated water used daily to the total daily energy consumption of the water heater. The EF can be used to compare the energy efficiency of water heaters. Water heaters with higher EFs will have lower annual operating costs than comparable models with lower EFs. A higher EF signifies a more efficient model. Water heaters with high EF ratings may cost more initially but save energy and money in the long run. Eventually, they will pay for themselves through a lifetime of energy savings.

Job Locations and Reviews
Installed a complete Lennox heat pump system, including the outdoor condenser unit set on a pad with a flexible-conduit connection to the exterior electrical disconnect, with plumbing support from the crew. Verified system performance with a digital manometer, recording pressure readings of 0.08 and 0.12 to confirm proper operating conditions.
Responded to a no-heat call on a Trane XL80 gas furnace. Inspected the furnace, flue venting, and the Trane wall thermostat to diagnose the cause of the unit failing to start. Documented equipment condition and the surrounding installation with photos for the service record.
Responded to a no-heat call where the furnace failed to start when the thermostat called for heat. Inspected the Honeywell Wi-Fi thermostat, removed the faceplate, and verified the backplate wiring and terminal connections (R, W, G, Y) for continuity and proper seating. Photo documentation shows the thermostat displaying a "USE HOME APP" screen, indicating a Wi-Fi/app-lock or setup state that may have prevented the call for heat, and a cracked mounting surface behind the backplate.
Installed a Bradford White AeroTherm heat pump water heater in the utility space, completing the potable water connections, T&P relief valve with discharge piping run to the floor, and electrical supply per the unit's wiring diagram. Verified proper installation and operation of the new tank; residual moisture from the previous unit remains on the concrete floor at the base.
Performed seasonal heating maintenance on two systems, including the pool heat pump. Inspected the return air grille and filter area, noting dust and debris buildup. Opened the equipment cabinet and used a clamp meter to check electrical readings and verify proper component operation, with wiring and connections inspected.
Performed annual heating maintenance on the crawl space-mounted furnace, inspecting the blower wheel and finding it clean with only light dust accumulation and no signs of rust, cracks, or damage. Inspected the connected GeneralAire unit, plenum, and drain piping, and noted creased foil-faced duct insulation with a small hole near the top of the plenum that may warrant sealing or repair to prevent air leakage and energy loss. Applied service sticker to the plenum for future reference.
Performed a plumbing estimate for a recurring floor drain overflow that occurs whenever the washing machine discharges. Inspected the washer standpipe and drain connections along with the floor drain strainer, which indicated a probable partial blockage or restriction in the branch drain line serving both fixtures. Recommended snaking or hydro-jetting the drain line to restore proper flow and prevent further backups.
Responded to a service call on a recently installed furnace, inspecting the outdoor condenser unit and verifying thermostat operation. The condenser fan guard was found covered with leaves and debris, and the thermostat was confirmed operating in Heat mode, following its programmed schedule with a 69°F setpoint. Parts warranty coverage was reviewed for any repairs due to the original installer no longer being in business.
Installed a Lennox heat pump with matching evaporator coil and ran the electrical supply, with the range circuit updated to a 4-prong configuration per code. Worked within the existing service panel, which had congested, loosely routed conductors and unsecured wire-nut splices at the enclosure bottom, and verified the new circuit connections. Confirmed the wall-mounted thermostat/control panel was in place for system operation.
Evaluated a 1993 furnace with a failed control board that would not fire, leaving combustion operation unverified, and recommended replacement based on the unit's age and condition. Inspected the 2010 1.5-ton R-22 condensing unit and the wall-mounted digital thermostat as part of the heating and cooling system assessment, and documented equipment data and existing conditions for the replacement proposal.
Performed an on-site estimate for a water softener installation, assessing the existing water heater closet and mechanical layout to determine installation requirements. Inspected the electrical panel, which was clean and properly labeled with no signs of corrosion or damage, and documented the water heater's condition, piping configuration, and surrounding space with photos for proposal preparation.
Performed a furnace assessment on a newly purchased residence with unknown system type and age. Inspected the wall-mounted RTH110B digital thermostat, which showed the heat mode active with the flame icon displayed, and verified the Heat/Off/Cool and Auto/On fan switch settings. Photographed the thermostat and documented its condition for the customer's records, with further evaluation of the furnace unit and fuel type to be advised.
Responded to a callback for a leak that had worsened since the original repair, which was attributed to a manufacturer defect involving cross-threaded fittings and excessive system pressure. Inspected the affected connection and associated components, then corrected the leak. Documented the unit's condition, including a heavily soiled condenser coil and localized fin damage.
Installed a complete Lennox heat pump system, including the outdoor unit set on a level composite pad with a weatherproof electrical disconnect and conduit connections, and sealed the condensate and line-set wall penetrations. Verified system operation and performance using a digital thermometer to confirm proper temperature readings, and left the unit running with no visible damage or leaks.
De-winterized the electric water heater by confirming the cold water supply valve was open, filling the tank, and purging air from the system at hot water fixtures until a steady flow was achieved. Inspected the temperature and pressure relief valve, discharge piping, and supply connections for leaks, and verified the unit was properly operating. Noted heavy dust and debris buildup around the unit and recommended periodic cleaning and a future tank flush.
Performed scheduled heating system maintenance under the CCH Basic monthly plan, inspecting the Honeywell Home ProSeries thermostat (Heat mode, Fan Auto, Permanent Hold, 67°F current vs. 80°F set point) and cleaning accumulated dust from the unit and wall plate. Reviewed and updated the maintenance history log stored at the air handler; the 20x25x4 filter was not included in this visit's scope. Noted that the thermostat's Wi-Fi connection is currently offline.
Performed a seasonal tune-up and pre-winter inspection on a Janitrol gas furnace for a new homeowner. Inspected the furnace cabinet, venting, and gas supply connections, and verified the Honeywell digital thermostat controls for proper heat, fan, and system mode operation. Furnace was found ready for heating season operation.
Performed A/C service on both cooling and heating systems, including a replacement of the 14x20x1 pleated air filter, which was heavily loaded with dust and debris. Measured supply air temperature with a digital thermometer, recording 73.0°F, to verify system operation.
Performed a second-opinion inspection of the under-structure drain, waste, and vent piping, which was found to be undersized and improperly supported, with failing couplings at multiple joints that prevented the fixtures from draining. The restricted-access crawl space area was evaluated and photographed, and a scope of work was prepared for replacing the undersized piping with correctly sized DWV piping and fittings to restore full fixture operation.
Responded to a no-heat call on a gas-fired furnace and performed diagnostic troubleshooting of the ignition and control sequence. Inspected the 16x20x1 return air filter slot and found heavy dust and lint accumulation restricting airflow, a common cause of limit-related lockouts, and serviced the filter compartment accordingly. Verified gas supply and shutoff valve, flexible gas connector, condensate/vent piping, and electrical connections, and confirmed the unit was restored to normal operation.
