Sometimes it's hard to know if you should call in a pro when your furnace is making a funny sound or seems to be less efficient than usual. Some tasks should only be left to a certified professional. In other situations, a few troubleshooting checks can reveal that you worried for no reason. However some furnace repairs should be left to the pro's!
Heating and air conditioning contractors are as different as the systems they sell and maintain. Being licensed to do business is very different than delivering quality, and experience counts for a lot. Choosing a heating and air conditioning contractor with deep knowledge and solid business practices pays big dividends, whether you’re shopping for maintenance or have decided to upgrade your HVAC system. Here are things to consider:
A storage water heater is a generally reliable unit, but any piece of equipment can have issues and losing hot water is an inconvenience no one wants. Before you call a professional, here are a few tips to help you narrow down the problem. You still might not be able to fix your water heater on your own, but you will at least be able to describe the problem if you do have to call for services.
If your old water heater has seen better days, you may want to look into the option of a high-efficiency tankless water heater. A water heater with no tank? Yes, the tankless system technology heats water directly without a storage tank. Pretty cool, eh?

Whether you're hiring an HVAC contractor for a new installation or to repair current equipment, your choice impacts the comfort and safety of your entire household.
