HVAC and Plumbers Homer, IL

Performed HVAC maintenance and a furnace safety inspection. Cleaned the interior and exterior of the unit and tested all components to manufacturer standards, ensuring the system is operating safely and efficiently for the winter.

Cleaned the furnace burner assembly, pressure ports, and condensate trap to restore operation. Inspected heat pump and filter. Recommended burner replacement soon to prevent heating failure and ensure reliable system performance.

Pulled and cleaned corroded burners blocking propane flow to resolve furnace not heating. Verified gas pressure at 10 in. wc, restoring proper heating. Recommended routine furnace maintenance to prevent future ignition failures.

Cleared a clogged toilet by using a toilet auger to remove a waste buildup blockage. Verified proper drainage by flushing multiple times to ensure the bathroom plumbing is fully functional and draining efficiently.

Cleaned boiler and mini-split systems for heating maintenance. Checked drains and scoped sewer lines, finding no obstructions. Inspected water heater, noting minor corrosion on dielectric fittings. All HVAC and plumbing systems are functional.

Replaced the combi boiler's faulty circulator pump, purged air from the heating system, and verified operation to restore hot water flow to all household sinks and showers.

Diagnosed failed run and start capacitors on the sanctuary air conditioner. Installed a Turbo 200X capacitor wired to 80uf to restore compressor function. Removed old start capacitor; returning soon to replace it.

Cut an access panel to service shower valves. Flushed out heavy scale buildup by cycling the valve stops, successfully restoring proper water pressure and functionality without needing a costly valve replacement.

Resolved an AC freezing issue by completing a thermostat replacement. Replaced a faulty Nest thermostat that failed to send a fan signal with a Honeywell T6 thermostat, restoring proper airflow and cooling system performance.

Completed HVAC maintenance: replaced air filter, cleaned condenser, and flushed drain. Also flushed water heater, tested water pressure, and inspected sinks, toilets, and valves to ensure peak system performance.

Replaced 12x20x1 air filter, cleaned outdoor AC coils, and checked electrical and refrigerant systems during bi-annual HVAC maintenance. Inspected plumbing by dye-testing toilets and verifying water pressure and stops.

Diagnosed error code indicating a faulty pressure switch. Temporarily installed a functioning switch to restore hot water and ordered a warranty replacement part to complete the water heater repair.

Cleared a main sewer line blockage with professional drain cleaning. Rodded 120 feet of pipe using a 3/4-inch cable and R4 cutter, then camera-inspected the line to the city main to verify PVC and SDR pipe conditions.

Completed troubleshooting for a propane water heater repair. Replaced the thermal cutoff, pressure switch, gas valve, and burner. Determined the issue is likely a propane supply shortfall, as the home furnace also failed to ignite.

Verified system voltage, tested static pressure, and replaced a broken electrical disconnect on the basement outdoor unit. Measured supply and return temperatures to ensure balanced airflow and proper HVAC system performance.

Replaced 16x20x1 air filter and checked system pressures during HVAC maintenance. For plumbing, adjusted water heater temperature down from 139°F for safety, verified sump pump operation, and dye-tested toilets for leaks.

Resolved error code 3 on State power vent water heater. Confirmed no vent blockages, disconnected pressure switch tube, and cleared debris from ports. Reassembled and tested to restore proper hot water operation.

Replaced a section of kitchen cast iron drain pipe in the crawlspace with 1.5” PVC. Cleared downstream blockages using a drain cleaning rod to resolve the clog, tracing the line to an old grease trap to ensure proper sink drainage.

Inspected 6” clay basement drain with a camera, finding no structural issues. Investigated water intrusion in the northeast corner; identified potential footing tile damage and sinking dirt outside caused by a past water line installation.

Cleaned outdoor AC unit, verified refrigerant levels, and checked system airflow for HVAC maintenance. Inspected plumbing shut-off valves, checked water pressure, and conducted a toilet dye test to ensure system efficiency.

Conducted post-installation HVAC inspection on new 3-ton AC and 80k S9X2 furnace. Verified gas pressures, static pressure, and refrigerant charge (15° superheat/8° subcooling) to ensure efficient heating and cooling service.

Replaced 20x25x5 filter, treated condensate line, and cleaned condenser coils. Diagnosed a faulty UV bulb in the air scrubber. Verified static pressures, refrigerant levels, and a 23°F temperature split to ensure efficient cooling.

Cleaned mini-split filters and treated condensate lines during HVAC maintenance. Inspected residential plumbing fixtures; advised water heater replacement or gas valve repair due to corrosion and overheating issues.

Diagnosed AC blowing warm air and found the system completely out of refrigerant. Provided a detailed quote for a new air conditioning installation to upgrade the home's cooling system.

Resolved AC not cooling by evacuating and recharging R-410A to factory specs. Increased indoor fan speed to correct a poor airflow issue causing the system to short-cycle. Restored proper suction pressure and cooling performance.
