PEX on slab, 200 amp service, builder-grade equipment that reaches end of life across a whole street at once.

What follows is every hvac problem we cover that concentrates in this era of construction. Age does not mean worse — it means a different set of failures.

• Whole street replacing systems the same year
• Upstairs runs hot no matter the setting
• Control board fault on a communicating system
• Smart thermostat installed and the heat now runs oddly
• Condensate pump buzzing or backing up
• White PVC vent pipes outside stained or dripping
• House feels stuffy in a new build
• Fifteen degree difference between floors
• Loud startup thump from the outdoor unit

Back to Hvac.
