Plumbing & Heating FAQ
Why Should I Hire a Licensed Plumber?
Licensed plumbers have demonstrated that they’re qualified and knowledgeable enough to make sure that their work is in compliance with plumbing codes. Unlicensed plumbers may be able to get a job done, but there will no be way for you to know that the work you receive is up to par, or that it’s reliable.
When you hire our licensed plumbers, all of the work we perform will come with a guarantee and a warranty. We’ll make sure that you’re completely satisfied with every aspect of our work.
Can I Do Plumbing Work On My Own?
Before you decide to tackle plumbing repairs without professional help, ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you need to buy or rent any tools?
- Do you have adequate experience to complete the job?
- Do you have time to complete the job?
- Do local codes require the work to be performed by a licensed plumber?
Before you decide to take care of a job on your own, you should compare the cost, time, stress, and quality of the work that you’ll be able to do with that of a professional.
What Regular Maintenance do Heating and Air Conditioning Systems Need?
The most important part of maintaining an HVAC system is to keep the air flow unrestricted. Your filters should be regularly changed or cleaned, and you should keep the heat exchanger and coils free of restrictions.
We recommend a yearly tune-up for your heating system in the fall and your air conditioning system in the spring. Tune-ups will ensure that your HVAC system functions efficiently, helping control your energy costs, and they’ll help prevent serious problems.
How Long Does a Typical Furnace or Air Conditioner Last?
Furnaces and air conditioners last for around 10-20 years. Sometimes, it’s a good idea to replace the units sooner in order to make them more energy-efficient. The lifespan of this equipment will also vary greatly depending on the frequency of maintenance and repairs that your heating or cooling unit receives.
