Our technicians are skilled in troubleshooting issues across all makes and models of furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, and other HVAC equipment.

Common HVAC problems we address in the St. Louis area, including Clayton, include issues like clogged condensate drains, which can lead to leaks; low refrigerant levels affecting cooling efficiency; duct leaks that waste energy; dirty air filters restricting airflow; thermostat malfunctions causing inconsistent temperatures; motor problems in fans or compressors; moisture buildup leading to mold or system failure; and unusual smells or sounds indicating underlying mechanical issues.

Expert HVAC Installation & Replacement in Clayton

Whether you're building a new home, undertaking a major renovation, or your existing system has reached the end of its lifespan, our HVAC installation and HVAC replacement services in Clayton provide reliable, energy-efficient solutions. Choosing the right system for your property is crucial, especially considering the unique characteristics of Clayton homes.

For homeowners in older Clayton properties, we understand the complexities of working with existing infrastructure, including ductwork or historic features. We can recommend and install systems suitable for these challenges, such as high-velocity systems, space-saving mini-splits, or traditional forced-air systems integrated with care. For properties with hot water radiators, our expertise extends to Boiler installation and replacement, ensuring your heating needs are met with reliable, efficient equipment.

Our installation process is meticulous. It starts with a detailed consultation and site assessment to determine the ideal system size and type for your specific needs and property layout. Proper sizing is paramount for efficiency and comfort – a system that's too large or too small will not operate effectively. We guide you through the selection process, considering factors like energy efficiency ratings (SEER, AFUE), fuel type, system features, and budget.

Our certified technicians handle the installation with precision and professionalism. They ensure all components are correctly connected, sealed, and calibrated according to manufacturer specifications and local codes. We take care to protect your property during the installation and leave the work area clean and tidy. After installation, we test the system thoroughly to ensure optimal performance and explain how to operate your new equipment effectively. Investing in a new, high-efficiency system can lead to significant energy savings, improved comfort, and enhanced indoor air quality over the long term. We also offer Financing options to help make the investment more manageable.

Proactive HVAC Maintenance in Clayton

Regular maintenance is key to extending the lifespan of your HVAC system, maintaining its efficiency, and preventing unexpected breakdowns. Our HVAC maintenance services in Clayton are designed to keep your heating and cooling equipment running smoothly season after season. Just like a car, your HVAC system has moving parts and filters that require routine attention to perform at their best.

During a maintenance visit, our technicians perform a comprehensive check and cleaning of your system. This includes inspecting electrical connections, lubricating moving parts, checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, checking thermostat calibration, and ensuring safety components are functioning correctly. For heating systems, we clean burners and heat exchangers; for cooling systems, we clear condensate drains and check airflow. These tune-ups catch potential issues early, preventing them from escalating into costly repairs.

Regular maintenance not only helps prevent breakdowns but also ensures your system operates at peak efficiency, which can lower your energy bills. It also contributes to healthier Indoor Air Quality by ensuring filters are clean and components are free of dirt and debris.

To make maintenance easy and cost-effective, we offer a Maintenance Plan. This plan typically includes scheduled tune-ups for both your heating and cooling systems annually, providing peace of mind and priority service.
