How to service or repair your boiler or air conditioning system affordably

As a home or business owner in New Jersey, you probably get a lot of use out of your boiler and air conditioning systems throughout the year. Although they work behind the scenes, these systems play an important role in keeping your home or office comfortable as well as functional. Here’s how to make certain these systems stay in great working order.

Boilers heat water, providing steam or hot water for heating systems in many of New Jersey’s homes and offices. These systems are integral to keeping buildings warm in the cold winters and, if not serviced and repaired, can easily fail exactly when you need them the most.

While it’s advisable to replace your boiler every ten years to guarantee your heating system functions reliably and that you keep up to date with recommended efficiency ratings, regular services are needed on an annual basis – preferably in the early autumn months. In addition to the risk of them failing, boilers which are in bad condition can leak, causing damage to your home or business and will run far less efficiently, causing a significant increase in your energy bill.

By committing to these services, you actually save money in the long run, avoiding expensive repairs to your building as well as the system itself. The same can be said for your air conditioning system, which can easily become clogged by dust and debris over time and become worn – reducing its efficiency and eventually resulting in a complete system failure.

At Crosstown Plumbing Supply, we can either assist you with choosing a high-efficiency, low maintenance replacement for your boiler or air conditioner (including central heating and air and ductless air conditioning systems) or provide you with an extensive range of plumbing supplies to replace necessary parts in your current systems. As we are a wholesaler that offers an additional 3.5% reduction in sales tax on all our prices, we can make your repairs and services the most affordable in town. Our sales consultants are highly experienced and happy to assist you with finding the right part for your needs and we work closely with reliable, affordable plumbing professionals if you prefer not to go the DIY route.

The Best Plumbing Suppliers in NJ

A recent study found that 87% of home or business owners initially attempt to confront the problems with heaters, air-conditioners and furnaces themselves.  And 78% of those folks find they are unable to fix their problem without ultimately calling a professional. Let’s face it folks, plumbing requires profound experience and years of practice. Dealing with plumbing problems without expert advice or help can be hazardous and highly expensive as well.

OK, But How does that Apply to a Plumbing Supply Company?

Essentially, expertise and customer service mean much the same thing in our industry as they do for a plumber. In today’s world, no one wants to hire the guy with his butt crack showing who shows up 3 days after he said he would. Finding plumbing suppliers in NJ focusing on customer care and satisfaction and who provide good value is more than just common sense, it can actually save you thousands of dollars. Such professionals will focus on quality of service and provide quick and on-time solutions that meet your needs and budget. In addition, they will assist the owners with valuable and sensible advice free of cost.  All plumbing supply houses say they do this but trust us, the big box chains are playing a volume game your salesman probably hasn’t spent much time under a leaky sink.

Why is Crosstown Plumbing such a Unique Plumbing Supply Company.

How the right heating and air conditioning systems can make 2015 the year you save money

If you have an older air conditioning or heating system in your home, you may have noticed your energy bill is slowly creeping up. Installing a new heating or air conditioning system may seem like a big step to take, but it’s one where you spend now and save much, much more later – here’s how:

  • Improved performance: Modern HVAC systems are at the cutting-edge of technology and designed with a focus on efficiency. By using less power to give you even better results from systems designed to last, your energy bill benefits directly from cheaper heating and cooling for years to come.
  • Improved design: These systems have come a long way even in the last 5 years or so and that’s due to an emphasis on expert design and installation. Heating and cooling systems are no longer one-size fits all, so you can find a product that exactly fits your needs. Without having to stress an inadequate system by heating or cooling a too big area or deal with a system that is too powerful for your space, you can meet your home or office’s needs without unnecessary wear on your system or costs on you bill.
  • Energy rebates: New Jersey’s Clean Energy Program has a list of incentives for home and business owners looking to increase their energy efficiency. This includes rebates for heating and cooling through the COOLAdvantage and WARMAdvantage programs. Additionally, homeowners can get up to $5,000 and 0% interest financing towards energy efficiency upgrades through a Home Performance analysis.

At Crosstown Plumbing Supply, we provide home and business owners with high-end heating and air conditioning systems at affordable, wholesale prices – allowing you to benefit even more this year. We can offer you a comprehensive range of energy efficient ductless mini splits and central air systems as well as boilers, water heaters and much more. In addition, all purchases are subject to a reduced 3.5% sales tax, giving you even more value for money.
