Linda from the Wycombe Heights neighborhood called us on a frigid February evening when her 12-year-old gas furnace suddenly stopped producing heat. “I tried calling three other companies first, but nobody could come out until the following week,” she explained. “When I reached Central Plumbing at 9 PM, they had someone at my door within 45 minutes.”
Our NATE-certified technician quickly diagnosed a faulty ignition control module and had the replacement part in his truck. Within an hour, Linda’s home was warming up again. “The technician didn’t just fix the immediate problem—he noticed my air filter was completely clogged and my ductwork had some loose connections that were wasting energy. The upfront pricing meant no surprises, and I felt like they truly cared about getting my family comfortable again.”
Mark, a property manager for several rental homes near Central Avenue, had been struggling with frequent furnace breakdowns that left tenants without heat. “I switched to Central Plumbing’s maintenance program after another company left one of my properties without heat for three days during a cold snap.”
Since enrolling in our comprehensive maintenance plan, Mark hasn’t had a single emergency furnace failure. “Their thorough inspections catch problems before they become emergencies. Last fall, they identified a heat exchanger issue that could have been dangerous. The money I save on emergency calls more than pays for the maintenance program, and my tenants are much happier.”
