3 Common Problems That Can Develop with Your AC’s Compressor
June 9th, 2015Your air conditioning system is comprised of a number of components, but there are three key components that are responsible for much of the work: the condenser, the evaporator and the compressor. Of these three components, the compressor would be considered the most mechanical, as it is responsible for pressurizing the refrigerant in your system. Compressors do a great deal of work, and operating day in and out under great pressure can lead to repair issues, particularly if your air conditioning system hasn’t been properly maintained. Any repair issues that develop with your compressor should only be handled by a trained expert to ensure that the diagnosis is correct and that the repair is handled properly.

Why Consider a Water Softener for My Home?
June 8th, 2015You don’t have to look far in Bucks County to find rocks, dirt and trees. In fact, one of the things that makes our county so attractive is the wide landscapes we have. However, when water passes through these landscapes, passing around rocks and through soil, it picks up a number of minerals that become part of the ground water, making the water hard. Hard water isn’t bad for you, but it can be tough on your plumbing system, water-using appliances and your clothes. One of the best ways to handle hard water is to install a water softener into your home’s plumbing system in Doylestown, PA.

Why Correctly Sizing Your Air Conditioner Is Important
May 25th, 2015When it comes to a new air conditioning installation, including replacing an outdated system, it’s very important to take a few steps before purchasing and installing your new system. One of these steps is determining what size of air conditioner you really need for your home. Many people go by the “rule of thumb” that you only need the square footage of your home to correctly estimate this; this is not correct. To correctly determine the right-sized AC, you need to determine what is known as the cooling load.

Stinky Puddles in the Yard? It May Be Time for Sewer Line Replacement
May 11th, 2015Your home’s plumbing system is pretty large and pretty complicated, but there are two main lines that make the whole system work: the main water line, which brings in the potable water, and the sewer (or septic) line that removes all the waste water. When there’s an issue with either of these lines, your plumbing system will develop problems. However, it can be challenging to know when something has gone wrong with either of these lines because they are buried under your yard. So if you have a sewer line problem, how are you going to know about it? Here are some tips from our Carney Plumbing Heating & Cooling experts.
