"My 1950's furnace gave out a few days after Christmas and a friend referred me to Carini. They came to give me a quote within a few days and, due to another job canceling, they were able to start on the work the very next day. I think it took two or three days to get me back up and running with heat. While they were at it, I had them add A/C to my old house so now I'm ready to stay comfortable in summer months too!

Hydro jet uses water at 4,000psi to clean the inside of the mainline drain which connects all the home's drains to the city's sewer system.
Using a snake we can go through the cleanouts on the side of the house.
With the cleanouts snaked, and the blockage located, we can send the hydro jet through the sewer vent and flush out the blocked drain.

"I've sent him to a few properties to give me quotes on repairing or replacing both AC and Heating units. I feel like always thinks about the client first. He's great about finding the issue and resolving the problem quickly and as afforable as possible. I've used him for many projects and he'll continue to be my first call with any HVAC needs."

"Workers came prepared with gloves and face masks. Very knowledgeable and quick workers. Fixed both solar and hot water heaters and pressure reducing valve. Pablo even went on roof to inspect my panels and noted missing flashing over roof penetration, assisting me to visually inspect the issue. Would highly recommend."

"I had a brand new water heater installed 5 months ago. It began leaking on Saturday night just as I had a house full of guests staying for the weekend. Disaster! The good old boy plumber that installed it has refused to return phone calls and text messages. Gone. Didnâ t care. . So I was stuck with calling someone who I didnâ t know and get them to do a replacement on Sunday morning. Over a dozen plumbing companies declined. Fortunately I found this company. They came out Sunday morning. Removed the old 75 gallon unit under manufacture warranty and finished the job by late afternoon. ARS did a great job. Morghon Liddel was a real professional. Very neat install. So happy I selected this company. I learned my lesson about hiring a good old retired? Guy, never again. I am very satisfied with ARSrescue"

"From the introduction of the product and discussion by Alexander Hall to communicating with scheduling it was wonderful. Installation by their team was clean, thorough and they were truly knowledgeable. The unit works well with a quiet compressor and maintains a wonderfully comfortable home environment. Their follow up and service is truly very nice . I highly recommend the entire team if you are looking for an AC and Heater replacement"

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Often, the first issue you might encounter is a lack or loss of power—this could be caused by a tripped switch or a failed heating element. If your hot water is not producing enough power and its size is not the issue, you might need to replace one of its heating elements. A leaking water heater could be caused by tank erosion.

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

Water heater installation code requirements are in place to keep your family and home safe. Water heaters that are installed wrong can simply not work. However, that's an, if you're lucky, type of situation. More commonly, incorrectly installed water heaters pose a real threat from carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, water leaks, and even explosions. 

No, you’ll need to drain the tank before changing a water heater element, as the water heater element sticks through the side of the tank and uses a gasket to prevent water from pouring out. However, you don’t always need to drain it completely. If you’re only replacing the upper heating element, you can drain the tank until the water line is below the element. If you’re replacing the lower element, you’ll need to drain the whole thing.

A well-maintained hot water recirculating pump can last 5 to 15 years. Pumps that run continuously may have a shorter lifespan than demand-controlled models. Hard water can reduce longevity by causing mineral buildup in the pump and pipes. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters, can extend the pump’s lifespan.
