What’s the Difference between Commercial and Residential HVAC?

Monday, April 30th, 2018

rooftop-commercial-acEvery building in the area needs to have air conditioning, and that applies to commercial buildings as well as homes and residences. In fact, most of us probably spend the heat of the day in an office or commercial space of some kind (schools count, since they have the same requirements as commercial spaces). That means that commercial HVAC systems need specific care when they run into trouble. You can’t just call a residential AC repair service and expect the results to be the same. Commercial systems differ from residential systems in a number of specific ways. We’ve listed a few of them below.

How Do Commercial HVAC Systems Differ from Residential Systems?

Monday, April 16th, 2018

rooftop-commercial-acEvery building in our part of the world needs a reliable heating and air conditioning system to function. Summer is just too hot and humid to go without reliable air conditioning, making it as much of a necessity as your electricity and plumbing. That applies to commercial space such as offices and retail stores as well as homes. And it should: we spend most of our daytime hours in such spaces, after all, and we need to stay just as comfortable when we work, go shopping, or study our lessons.

3 Things to Consider with New Air Conditioning Installation

Monday, April 2nd, 2018

HVAC-system-installationIf your air conditioner is on its last legs, now is the time to get a new one installed in your home. Spring has officially arrived, and summer won’t be too far behind. Hot temperatures seem to come sooner every year, and often linger well into the fall. If you have an old, worn out air conditioner in your home — one that struggled to do the job last summer and might not be up for another marathon of temperature control — replacing it with a new one can provide a number of benefits.

New air conditioners tend to turn much more efficiently: cutting down on monthly bills, reducing the chances of breakdowns and giving you the peace of mind that comes with reliable service. A good technician can ensure that your new system is functioning as effectively as possible, and ensure that your home is covered for high temperatures the moment the thermostat starts to rise.

Get Air Conditioning Repairs Before a Breakdown

Monday, March 19th, 2018

air-conditioner-upgradesWe’re moving out of heating season and into cooling season, and that means your air conditioning system is going to be put to increasingly frequent use over the next few weeks. Soon enough, you’ll be running it every day in order to keep your home cooling in the face of stifling temperatures, and in order for it to do that, it needs to be in peak running condition. The last thing you need is a sudden AC breakdown just your thermometer clears 100 degrees.

A good air conditioning repair service can move quickly and take care of issues with consideration and care. But frankly, you don’t need to wait for a breakdown to treat an issue with your air conditioner. Jumping on a repair issue early can save you a lot of trouble, and likely a fair bit of money as well.

Schedule Heating Maintenance This Spring

Monday, March 5th, 2018

heating-repairs-repalcementWe’ve officially entered the last few weeks of winter, which means we’ll soon be turning off our heating systems and turning on our air conditioners. We strongly recommend scheduling a maintenance session for your heating system sometime soon. The warming weather means you won’t have use of the system for much longer, but you have likely been running your heater quite often in the last few months. That can build up a huge amount of wear and tear, which will eventually lead to a serious breakdown if you’re not careful. A maintenance session is just what the doctor ordered.

What to Know about Well Irrigation

Monday, February 5th, 2018

well-irrigation-servicesWe handle a lot of well services for local clients who live in rural areas. Private wells or shared wells make an excellent means of providing safe potable water from a home that might otherwise struggle with its water supply. Private wells can also be used to provide irrigation, either for farming or simply to provide the greenery in your yard with sprinkler water. Either way, that might mean digging a specific well, called an irrigation well on your property. A trained expert is absolutely necessary when planning and conducting such an operation.

Proper Well Drilling Ensures a Safe Water Supply

Monday, January 22nd, 2018

water-well-drillingIf you live in a city, your water is handled by a municipal water service, which takes care of safety issues like contamination and bacterial infection. If you live in the country, however – and a number of people in the area do – then you need to rely on alternative water supplies. This can often involve a well, either one dug directly on your property or a communal well which you share with a number of other households.

Either way, such a well needs to be drilled by a company that knows what it’s doing and has the proper credentials to handle the job the right way. In so doing, you’ll guarantee that your water supply remains safe, and that no critical detail gets overlooked.
