Now that the weather in the Central Valley has started to warm up, it really is starting to feel like spring. Although it’s still not hot enough that you’ll need to run your home’s air conditioning system quite yet, you can use this time to arrange for an all-important job: scheduling professional AC maintenance in Fresno, CA with our team of experienced professionals.
We talk about HVAC maintenance often during the year, with reminders in spring for ACs and in fall for heating systems. This isn’t just because we want to get your business. It’s also because we know how beneficial professional tune-ups and inspections are for heating and cooling systems. Maintenance is one of the best services you can have for your air conditioning system. Here are a few reasons why.
The Central Valley experienced heavy rainfall over the winter, and this is one of the reasons we want to discuss rain gutters in a post. Your home’s rain gutters serve several critical purposes, and you may not be aware of some of them.
Because of the recent heavy rains, you may find yourself in a situation where you need to have new rain gutters installed. We’re going to look at why rain gutters are so important for your house and property so you’ll have a better understanding of why professional rain gutter replacements are sometimes necessary.
One of the big benefits of having a tankless water heater instead of a standard storage tank water heater is that a tankless water heater can last longer and require fewer repairs during its extended service life. This is because tankless systems have reduced stress from the lack of a tank and only expend energy when there’s demand for water rather than the steady energy use of tank water heaters.
Unfortunately, these benefits can sometimes lead homeowners into believing that a tankless water heater requires less maintenance. “It shouldn’t need maintenance every year. Maybe every other. Or even only every three years.” But this is absolutely not true! Tankless water heaters are precision devices that require expert regular care to make sure they stay precise. If you want to avoid water heater repair as well as an early replacement for your tankless water heater in Fresno, CA, don’t forget to schedule maintenance for it each year with our trained professionals.
This month record snowfall blankets the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the outlaying areas of the Central Valley. Central California is experiencing record rain, snowfall, ice, wind, and even blizzard warning conditions. Fresno and Madera Counties and our entire Central Valley have been hit hard with wildfires that have devastated homes and the natural surrounding areas and led to lengthy power outages. When you add our current record winter to that damage, we are faced with people being stranded from snow and possible flooding. All of this can lead to more lengthy power outages and emergency situations.
The furnace has been the most common type of home heating system for many decades. As with anything that’s been around that long, a number of myths have gathered around the furnace that many people still believe. Although the internet allows for rapid debunking of many of these misconceptions, it also allows for the misconceptions to continue to spread.
We want you to know the truth about your furnace so you can get the most out of it and enjoy safe comfort every year. You can trust our team for professional furnace service in Clovis, CA or elsewhere in the Central Valley whenever you need it.
With erratic weather, wildfires, and electrical grid trouble, extended power outages are becoming increasingly common in California. This has caused more people to consider getting generators for their homes so they’re ready in case of an emergency. Having a steady power supply is more than just a convenience: there are situations where it can be life-saving.
We definitely recommend you consider getting a generator in Oakhurst, CA or wherever you live in the Central Valley. Our technicians are generator installation experts and can help see that you have the right system for your needs.
This may be the winter when you realize that your current gas furnace is approaching the end of its service life. You’re seeing higher gas bills when you run it, and the idea of paying a high cost to repair it the next time it breaks isn’t appealing. These are all good reasons to invest in a heating replacement in Fresno, CA during the coming spring. (Or even right now if your heater simply fails on you.) But is this the year to invest in a high-efficiency furnace? These heating systems cost more than mid-efficiency gas furnaces, but there are many reasons to give them serious consideration.
Northern and Central California are seeing a large amount of rain at the end of December and the start of January. That’s good news in some ways, since it helps to ease drought conditions. But it can be rough in other ways—such as on your house.
Protecting your home from rainfall is one of the jobs of rain gutters. Like any part of a home, rain gutters will wear down over time and eventually need to be replaced. With all the rain coming down in the Central Valley, it’s a good time to check to see if you need to replace your rain gutters in Fresno, CA.
Nobody wants to get up in the morning and discover that the hot shower that gets them prepared for the day quickly changes into a lukewarm shower … or even a cold one. It’s especially a trial during the winter days!
If you’ve run into a problem where your water heater is delivering hot water, but not as much as it used to, then you’ll certainly want to have something done about it. Below are five common causes of this problem that we can solve for you.
Gas furnaces work on a basic principle: lit gas flames heat air that is blown through the furnace and into the rooms through ductwork. But gas furnaces are complex devices that have several safety features and mechanisms that allow them to work correctly and without creating hazards.
One of the key components for the operation of a furnace is the furnace limit switch. You don’t need to know all the details about this part, but understanding the basics will help you know more about how your furnace works—and why it sometimes doesn’t work.
