How the seasons hit Columbia Heights

Condo air handlers in Columbia Heights tend to run nonstop in August, and drain lines that have not been flushed in years back up and leak through the ceiling of the unit below.

How we handle it

We schedule tune-ups around your day and finish most in about an hour.

Columbia Heights condo tune-ups are faster when the air handler closet is emptied. Many of these closets double as storage, and we need room at the coil and drain pan.

Columbia Heights condo tune-ups also test the float switch in the drain pan. That small switch is what stops a leak from reaching the unit below, so we make sure it actually cuts power when the pan fills.

Getting to you

For condo buildings we work within building rules and coordinate roof or mechanical-room access with management when it is needed. We cover the 20010 and 20009 area along 14th Street, Irving Street, Columbia Road and 16th Street.

Columbia Heights condo tune-ups focus on the closet air handler: coil, drain pan, float switch and filter access. We also flush the condensate line, since that is the part most likely to cause a neighbor-to-neighbor leak.
