Services
Plumbing
We provide comprehensive plumbing solutions from traditional copper installations to modern PEX tubing systems. Our expertise includes custom fixtures, residential urinals, and complex commercial plumbing for water parks. We maintain showroom displays of premium fixtures and implement backflow prevention systems for safety and code compliance.
Heating
Our heating services feature radiant floor systems with Viessmann controls, hydronic baseboards, and high-efficiency boilers. We install American Standard HVAC products with variable speed technology and specialize in retrofitting older systems while maintaining historical building integrity during upgrades.
Geothermal
We design and install geothermal heating systems using Water Furnace equipment with closed-loop systems drilled to 1500 feet. Our systems achieve COP ratings over 5.0 and integrate with existing heating infrastructure for residential and commercial applications with 5-6 year payback periods.
Mechanical Piping
Our mechanical piping division handles high-pressure hydraulic systems for water parks, gas piping, and complex pool mechanics. We've completed major projects at Funtown USA including 60hp pump installations and pressure-rated piping systems capable of 2400psi hydraulic loads.
Thermal Imaging
We conduct thermal imaging diagnostics to identify energy losses, moisture intrusion, and electrical faults. This technology helps pinpoint air leakage points and insulation deficiencies, enabling targeted improvements that reduce energy consumption by 30-40%.
