Plumbing Backing Up
We addressed a recurring drainage issue with the laundry drain by running a drill auger several times to clear any blockages. Following this maintenance, we conducted tests with two loads of laundry, ensuring that the drain functioned efficiently without any further problems.

No Hot Water
A malfunctioning gas valve was identified as the issue affecting the water heater’s operation. We installed a new Honeywell gas valve, ensuring it is properly set to position A. The water heater is now fully operational and providing hot water efficiently.

Plumbing Backing Up
A blockage in the branch line drain from the wash box required immediate attention. We utilized a sectional drain cleaner, running a 70-foot line with a spade head attachment to effectively clear the obstruction. After the drain was cleared, we filled the washing machine three times to ensure proper water drainage and confirm the issue was resolved.

Preventative Maintenance
We addressed the HVAC system's performance by cleaning the condenser and checking the filter to ensure optimal airflow. We cycled the system for both heating and cooling, inspected the condensate drain, and balanced the charge. Capacitors were measured within ±5%, and the drain was flushed to maintain efficiency. This thorough maintenance helps ensure a reliable and comfortable home environment.

Out With The Old In With The New.
The aging furnaces from 1980 were no longer efficient, leading to increased energy costs. We replaced both with modern, energy-efficient furnaces that significantly improve heating performance and reduce utility expenses, ensuring optimal comfort for the home.

Main Line Clogged
Roots were causing blockages in the drain, impacting proper flow. We utilized a jetter to effectively cut through the roots, ensuring a clear passage. A camera inspection confirmed that the problem areas were spot cleaned and fully resolved.

Winter Change Out
Replacing aging AC components in winter can prevent future headaches, so we installed a new Goodman coil and condenser for a 2-ton system located upstairs. This upgrade ensures optimal performance and comfort for the residential home.

Hvac Install
The upstairs system was struggling to maintain comfortable temperatures, prompting the need for an upgrade. We replaced the existing 2-ton condenser and coil, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency for the home. This installation enhances the overall cooling capacity, providing a more comfortable living environment.

Sewer Camera Inspection
A clogged drain was causing issues in the residential property, so we utilized a jetter to effectively clear the blockage. We also employed a camera to identify and spot clean areas affected by root intrusion, ensuring all obstructions were removed. This thorough approach allowed us to restore proper drainage flow efficiently.

Leak In The Master Bathroom
We successfully repaired a leaking pipe by replacing a 3/4 inch galvanized pipe union with a female adapter and adding a foot of new copper piping. After testing for leaks and ensuring the meter read 0.00, we completed the job by filling in the hole.

Coil And Condenser Replacement
We replaced a restricted and half sweating coil with a new 3 ton Goodman condenser and coil for a residential customer. The installation included a 10 year parts and labor warranty for added peace of mind.

This company is the best.
I needed a plumber yesterday to repair washing machine hoses, a job I could normally do myself were it not for the hoses being almost impossible to remove. I randomly picked American and they were so attentive. A time was scheduled that met my need and two very nice guys showed up and fixed the problem. I would recommend this company to anyone needing plumbing work. No one likes to pay for things they could normally do, however, sometimes you need a little help.
I called American HVAC for a second opinion on an issue another company quoted me $1500 for. The owner of American HVAC came out to check out my unit. He was very professional and quick, told me there was nothing with my unit that needed replacing, and saved me $1500. American HVAC immediately earned my business from here on out.
This is our second time using this company in a month- the first, we needed a new hot water heater at our current house. Sharon had someone to us within an hour and within 24 hours the unit was completely replaced. Jessica was punctual and very professional. Currently, Jeff is at our new house helping with old piping in our bathrooms. Again, Sharon and the team were able to expedite the service and had Jeff here an hour after the initial call. The repairs will be completed same day. Overall we are very pleased with our experiences and will continue to call for any plumbing/HVAC issues we have in the future.
American HVAC and plumbing gave me a competitive price and showed up to do the job when they said they would. The installation went smoothly. They cleaned after themselves and left the job spotless.
