Heating & Cooling Systems Inspection

What we look for...

2022-9-24-35_edited.jpg

Age of Appliances

Nothing lasts forever, so the first thing we check during the heating & cooling portion of your inspection is the approximate age of the appliances. We can compare with appliances' average life expectancy to provide recommendations as needed.

Fuel Source

We will check the source of fuel, which is typically natural gas or electric, but may also be propane, oil, or geothermal. Each type of system has it's own pros/cons, and we'll help you to understand how your system works, and how to maintain it.

Repairs & Modifications

Repairs are inevitable, but how they're carried out is important. Improper repairs can be cause for a closer look, while quality upgrades can bring peace of mind. 

We'll help to show you the difference.

Installation Defects

Sometimes things just aren't installed correctly, or are not up to modern standards. We can help you to understand the state of the property, and prepare you with the info to make a judgement on further actions.

Deteriorated Components 

Nothing lasts forever, and that's okay. We are trained to spot signs of deterioration and in common causes, ensuring we know where to look and how to interpret what we see. 

Rusted Furnace Duct. Ducts are prone to collecting condensation which can rust and deteriorate, often at low-spots. Here the heat is escaping through a rusted section and causing surrounding paint to peel. 

And much, much more!
