FAQs
Do I need a new HVAC system or just a repair?
Depending on the severity of the troubles it’s causing, you may only need a repair to your system. A technician can inspect your air conditioner or furnace to determine the best service.
Why is good indoor air quality necessary for your home?
Your home’s indoor air quality can be significantly worse than the air quality outdoors. Dust, allergens, and pollutants can be circulating throughout your home. This can be because of dirty air ducts, clogged air filters, or poor ventilation. Because of this, your family’s health could suffer if your home’s air is contaminated.
What should I do if there is a leak under my water heater?
First, check to see if the drain valve is closed completely. If the tank is still leaking, the valve may be loose. However, suppose there is excessive water dripping from the unit, or you’re noticing a pool of water under your water heater. In that case, a professional must repair your water heater. This could indicate a crack in the tank, or a pipe could be corroded. Call a plumbing professional to assess the situation to see if your water heater needs repair or if it needs to be replaced.
