October 3rd, 2022

Oftentimes, homeowners aren’t aware that their sump pump systems actually require pretty routine inspections. Our Home Performance Experts are here to help with this service, and include it as part of the plumbing plan of our Silver Shield Membership, which you can read more about below. 

It’s also important, however, that you check your sump pump on a seasonal basis as well, plus every time the sump pump gets used. This basic homeowner check should include:

  • Visually checking your sump pump for any signs of cracks or leaks. 
  • Dumping water in the pit to ensure it activates properly. 
  • Cleaning any debris out or around the sump pump system. 

Read on as we uncover why sump pump inspections are so important, and what common problems you may be able to avoid with routine sump pump maintenance.

What You Should Know About Duct Cleaning and Aerosealing

September 5th, 2022

If there is any part of an HVAC system that people don’t give a lot of thought or attention to, it’s ductwork. Air ducts are typically installed in hard-to-access areas such as attics, crawlspaces, and beyond drywall. We wouldn’t expect you to think about this component often, but that doesn’t change how important it is. 

Your ductwork is what allows the cooled air from your air conditioner and warm air from your furnace or heat pump to get distributed into the various rooms of your home. Dirty or damaged ductwork can lead to a number of problems for your household, which we’ll get into below. 

If you suspect you may have a problem with your ductwork, or want to learn about our ductwork services, please don’t hesitate to contact our Home Performance Experts! 

Also, check out our Silver Shield Membership! Our HVAC plan includes a WholeHome™ Performance Assessment includes a full air duct inspection and members can save up to $200 on duct cleaning or Aeroseal duct sealing. Read on to learn more about these services and their benefits.

How to Prevent Drain and Sewer Line Problems

August 22nd, 2022

If there is any problem that is pretty common among homeowners, it’s the problem of a clogged or dirty drain. Whether your drains are sluggish, completely backed up, or have a lingering odor to them, it’s not something you can ignore. 

Of course, you might think the answer to addressing these troublesome drains is that bottle of store-bought liquid drain cleaner you keep on hand from the store. Unfortunately, however, this might only exacerbate the problem. Ironic as it is, the materials used in these “drain openers” only dissolve some types of clogs, and can actually create blockages of their own. 

Additionally, the chemicals used in these “solutions” are caustic and can actually start corroding your drain pipes. Lastly, if you have multiple drains clogged, this is actually pointing to a problem much deeper–with your sewer line–and store-bought drain cleaners aren’t going to do much, if anything, for this kind of problem. Read on to learn when you should call on the pros for your drain and sewer issues.

July 25th, 2022

More and more homeowners are electrifying their households these days, but that’s not the only way people are embracing electrical power. Electric vehicles have grown in popularity throughout the country recently, and our area is no different. 

Of course, a vital part of owning an electric vehicle is having an easily accessible Electric Vehicle Charging Station also called an EV Charger. Sure, you can get a basic charging package with your vehicle that plugs into a standard wall outlet, but this is a slow and inefficient way to charge your vehicle. 

You need only turn to Barron Electrical for a better option–a residential Electric Vehicle Charging Station.
