Heating, cooling and ventilation for houses and businesses across Athens and north-east Georgia — and a site that points at the parts and tells you what each one does, so the next person who comes out has to talk to you straight.
Five things, in the order we check them. None of it is secret and most of it you can see for yourself from the yard.
Pin positions are illustrative and will be adjusted to the final photograph.
Houses, townhouses and student rentals across Athens, Watkinsville and Winterville. Breakdowns, furnace and air conditioning replacement, heat pumps, ducts, airflow and the humidity that comes with a Georgia summer.
Shops and bars on and around downtown, restaurants, professional suites, clinics, small offices and light industrial. Planned maintenance with a record per unit, rooftop plant, extract and make-up air.
The indoor half does more of the work and gets a fraction of the attention. Four things to know about yours.

A smell is usually the first warning anybody gets, and it is the one signal people reliably notice. There is a page on this site that takes the smell and when it happens and tells you what it probably is — including the one that means leave the building and call the gas company rather than call us.
Usually yes. A furnace collects dust all summer on surfaces that get very hot, and it burns off the first time the heat runs. It should clear within an hour and it should not come back the next day. If it happens every start-up, or it is there all the time, that is different — the smells page walks through it.
Leave the building. Do not touch a light switch and do not use a phone indoors. From outside, call 911 and your gas utility emergency line. Do not call us first — they are faster and they do not charge you for a false alarm. Once it is made safe we can look at the appliance.
Almost always because the system is larger than the house needs. It reaches the thermostat setting before it has run long enough to take moisture out of the air. Blower speed, return sizing and duct leakage are all worth measuring before anybody proposes new equipment.
Yes, on a schedule, with a record per property so a maintenance history exists when a tenant reports a fault. What we will not do is sign off a heat exchanger we are not happy with because a turnover date is close.
Yes — including extract and make-up air, which is where most dining-room comfort complaints actually come from. Hood cleaning and fire suppression are separate trades with their own certifications and we do not claim them.
