Do you need a HVAC condensate drain water leak repair, service and maintenance company?
Saturday, February 19th, 2011
Our recommended actions to take when you find a condensate water leak.
-
Turn the thermostat of the system to the off position.
-
Use a bucket or towel as needed to sop up the water dampened area.
-
Inspect the air filter for water.
-
Call a qualified, licensed and insured company to inspect the system and recommend the proper repair steps to be taken.
The most common cause for a HVAC system to leak from the condensate drain or air handler drain pan is algae buildup causing a blockage. The second most often found cause is ice built up on a frozen air handler coil.
Most condensate water leak repairs are fairly inexpensive and can be corrected in a short amount of time.
However, the best protection for you is prevention. One thing all of our existing maintenance agreement holders already know (besides priority service and saving 10% on labor for any repair) is the importance of having a water safety float switch installed in the condensate drain and condensate drain pan. This way when the condensate line or condensate pan back up the system is automatically shutdown.

Self-Contained, Ceiling-Mounted Air Conditioners: A Cost-Effective Solution for Server Rooms.
Wednesday, February 9th, 2011
As businesses become more and more dependent on computers and telecom equipment to keep their critical operations running 24/7, they face a new challenge that often takes them by surprise:
How to keep their server or telecom room cool when the building’s central air conditioning system is inadequate or is otherwise turned off—such as during off hours, weekends and holidays, or during cold-weather months, when the HVAC system is in heating mode.
Adding to the difficulty is a lack of floor space. A relatively new class of self-contained, ceiling-mounted air conditioners can provide a cost-effective, space-saving solution.
• Self-contained, all-in-one units have lower installation costs than mini-splits or precision cooling systems
• No penetration of wall or roof required
• No outside condensing unit to maintain
• Compact size fits easily above drop ceiling, takes up no floor space
Contact Aloha Air Conditioning sales team for details.

White-Rodgers Thermostats Recalled Over Fire Risk
Monday, January 17th, 2011
Aloha recommends Nest the Learning Thermostat. Yes, you can replace your White-Rodgers with a NEST.
If you opted in to an energy demand reduction program that allows a power company to control your home’s thermostat, you better check to see if it’s been recalled.
White-Rodgers of St. Louis recalled almost 200,000 programmable thermostats sold through energy conservation programs nationwide and in Canada because the AA batteries that power its clock can leak and risk sparking a fire, said the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The company received three reports of minor property damage. What happens is the thermostats constantly charge the backup AA batteries, which can make them leak and short the circuit. So far, no one has been hurt, the CPSC said.
More than 40 utility companies and various HVAC wholesalers sold the China-made thermostats to consumers from January 2005 through August 2010 for about $150 each.
About 180,000 were sold in the U.S. and 8,300 in Canada, mostly in Ontario.
The recall involved all White-Rodgers programmable thermostats with model numbers 1F88-XXX and 1F85RF-275 and the date codes beginning with 05, 06, 07, 08, 09 and 1001 through 1039.
The model numbers can be found on the thermostat’s front pull-down panel door. The date code can be seen inside the removable front cover.
Consumers should take the two AA batteries out of the thermostat and call White-Rodgers for a free repair kit at (888) 624-1901 between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. Eastern, Monday through Friday.
You can also register your thermostat with the company. In some cases, removing the batteries can cause the furnace to turn off. If that happens, replace the batteries and contact your utility provider and White-Rodgers to schedule service.
In December, more than 2 million electric portable heaters sold through Walmart were recalled after 21 incidents including fires that injured four consumers.
