Peering Inside the Engine Room: What We Examine
Let’s pull back the paneling and see what makes your home tick:
- Heating, Ventilation, & Air Conditioning (HVAC): We put your climate control systems through their paces. This means checking the furnace or boiler, the air conditioning unit, and all associated ductwork. We’ll look at filter conditions, assess ventilation pathways, and test thermostat responsiveness using precision tools. We want you to feel comfortable no matter what the Brooklyn weather brings.
- Plumbing Pathways: From the main water line in, to the drains out, we follow the flow. We scrutinize visible pipes, whether they are sturdy copper or flexible PEX, looking for tell-tale signs of leaks or corrosion, sometimes using moisture meters for hidden issues. We assess your water heater’s age and performance and test faucets and fixtures for proper pressure and drainage – a key point in an area prone to water concerns.
- Electrical Network: Flickering lights or frequently tripped breakers can signal deeper issues. We delve into your electrical panel, identifying the types of breakers and wiring—checking for older aluminum wiring or robust copper. Using multimeters and testers, we check outlets, including GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets in kitchens and baths, and switches for correct operation and grounding.
Knowing the status of these fundamental systems isn’t just about avoiding disruptions; it’s about understanding the property you live in.
