Many things in your life will let you know, loud and clear, when they’re having a problem. It might be as small as your coffee maker or as large as your car, but when you hear it making a strange noise, you know something’s wrong. HVAC systems also may make odd sounds when they need service. What does that noise indicate? What kind of repairs do you need? Let’s take a listen.
“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” It’s one of the truest clichés when it comes to the care of your home. Any time that you can stop a problem from happening in the first place, do it! It’ll save you a much greater expenditure of time and money later on. And this time of year, when you’re considering prevention, your furnace should be at the top of your list.
Whether it’s gas or electric, brand-new or many years old, your furnace requires annual maintenance. This will help it to run more efficiently, and to keep your home more evenly heated. It’ll stop serious safety hazards from developing. Perhaps best of all, annual furnace maintenance will massively reduce the frequency of furnace repair needs. Here’s how it works.
Oh, no! Do you have a plumbing problem? How serious is it? Do you need to call a plumber? You might have a hard time answering those questions. And that’s okay: most people are not plumbing experts.

When you know or suspect that something is wrong with your plumbing, it’s important to get it resolved quickly, because water damage can be horrifically costly to repair. But what exactly should you do? We’ll give you an easy plumbing problem troubleshooting checklist. If you’ve got a plumbing concern, check these things first.
The summer is in full swing. Have you had professional AC maintenance done yet? If not, do you still need to do it? Many people wonder if they’ve missed the window for maintenance, if it can only be done in the spring, or if they should put it off until next year.
No! Neglecting your air conditioner can have serious consequences. If you haven’t had AC maintenance yet this year, schedule it now. Here’s why.
Your sewer line is the central location where all the drain water and waste leaves your home. It carries it away to the municipal sewage pipe, which brings all the waste from your neighborhood to the sewage treatment facility.
Clearly, the sewer line does a very critical and not particularly pleasant job for your home. You don’t want anything to go wrong in that process, or you’d have a big smelly mess on your hands! Sewer line cleaning is a plumbing service that can ensure waste drains easily and your sewer line stays in good condition. But how often should you have it done?
If we tell you to picture a plumbing emergency, chances are you’re imagining a geyser of water spraying from a broken pipe. But the exact opposite type of problem can also be an emergency: a lack of water.
What should you do if you turn on a faucet and little to no water comes out? We’ve got the answers for you.
Heating your home is expensive enough at the best of times. In fact, it’s one of the biggest expenses that American families have to shoulder. The last thing you need is wasted energy costing you extra money! If your home has ductwork, there’s a good chance it’s leaking your precious heated air and costing you a bundle. Here’s how that happens and what to do.
You might have experienced furnace problems in the past that involved the furnace not coming on. That’s a big problem, because you simply won’t get any heat! But there’s another symptom of furnace problems that’s pretty much the opposite: the furnace not turning off. What could be making your furnace run all the time? What should you do about it? We’ve got you covered.
Your sewer line has a big, unpleasant job to do! It carries all the wastewater from all your drains away from your home and connects with your municipal wastewater system.

How can you tell there’s a sewer line problem in time to get it professionally cleaned out without a disaster? Here are the key things to look for.
