Indoor comfort level – we will check dry bulb and wet bulb (humidity) readings in your home at various locations to view the consistency of comfort conditions.

Check living space for carbon monoxide – we will use one of our professional grade carbon monoxide detectors to sample the indoor air to make sure equipment is venting properly (at time of inspection).

Estimate age and condition of your equipment – this will allow you to have an idea of what to expect as far as your present system is concerned in regards to efficiency and estimated lifespan.

Check integrity of ductwork and/or piping system – make sure all insulation, damper, and valves are in place and operational (as long as they are accessible).

Verify that your system is reasonably airtight and water tight.

Label and/or tag all electrical and water shut-offs to your HVAC system.

Check cleanliness of ductwork – we will cut a removable access panel in your main ductwork to visually inspect the cleanliness of the air delivery system. This will give us a “bird’s eye” look at what is inside. If you are not available, we will take a Polaroid picture of it and leave it for you. We leave duct cleaning to the experts and if your ducts are I need of cleaning we will refer you to them (main trunk duct must be accessible for this).

Check basement humidity level – we will take a wet bulb reading (humidity) of your basement to see if you need to run a dehumidifier or if your present unit is doing the job.
