A boiler uses water to provide heat to a home. That’s the basic description of one. And where water comes in contact with metal, corrosion can result. However, you shouldn’t expect to see corrosion forming along the parts of the boiler in your house—at least not for many years. Boilers are designed to resist corrosion for most of their service lives.
If you do see corrosion along your boiler, does it mean the boiler has reached the end of the line? Is now the time to call a HVAC company in Clovis, NM to schedule a new boiler installation? Possibly. We’ll look into this a bit deeper so you’ll be informed before giving us a call about what needs to be done.
You use hot water in your house almost every day. In fact, the only time you probably don’t use hot water in your house is when you’re away on a vacation. Hot water is necessary for showering, cleaning, cooking, and more. During winter, it’s even more important—because taking a hot bath on a cold day is one of the best feelings ever.
When it comes to plumbing troubles that can affect your house during the winter, you most often hear about frozen pipes. That’s rarely an issue in the Clovis area. Our winters can get cold, but not cold enough where there’s a high danger of pipe freeze.
December is the first official month of winter, and it’s also when you can expect to have your gas heating system (such as a gas furnace or boiler) run regularly. This is a good time to address a concern about using natural gas in your home. Natural gas isn’t automatically dangerous—as long as gas appliances are maintained and repaired by licensed professionals, they operate at the highest levels of safety and will do so until they’re ready for a replacement.
We have a history working with water heaters and boilers—we know all about circulating hot water around a house to either supply water to taps and appliances, or to provide winter warmth for the rooms. Today we’re looking at the boiler system and the different ways it can send heat into your house to keep your family comfortable all through winter. If you’re interested in installing one of these 
Do you have a special list of emergency numbers and a special emergency kit set aside? You probably do, since this is one of the basic household planning projects. But do you know where the shut-off valve for your home’s plumbing is located? This is an essential bit of knowledge for plumbing emergencies that threaten flooding—and it’s something you and all the adults in your house should know. You should also know how to use the shut-off valve, which isn’t always as straightforward as it sounds.
Low water pressure may not feel like a major emergency. Not compared to having no water in your house at all. But low water pressure is a problem that few homeowners understand. It makes everyday tasks much more difficult, such as getting a decent shower or trying to hand-wash anything in the kitchen sink. Low water pressure may worsen over time, eventually leading to no water at all.
At some point, the AC cooling your home will need to be replaced. The end point for many air conditioners is when the compressor dies. Because the compressor is the literal heart of the system—the component that causes refrigerant to circulate and allows it to evaporate and condense—when it goes, it often means the entire AC needs to be replaced. Although a new compressor can be put in, the more money-saving option is to go with a new air conditioner. Or even a complete HVAC system replacement.
When you decide your old, clunky, money-gobbling air conditioning system just went through its last summer, you’ll have a few big decisions to make. One of the first is to choose when to have it replaced. Although we’re heading into the end of the year and colder weather, we recommend you don’t wait for the spring to have your new air conditioner installed.
