When our local water company started adding Watts No. 7 dual-check backflow preventers to all water services, we soon discovered water heaters were failing at a rapid pace, with gas fired models exhibiting telltale signs where the cold/hot water lines skewed off making them look like a bow-legged cowboy! 

A top-notch heating and/or air-conditioning system that delivers comfort and economical operation performing at peak efficiency is relatively easy to accomplish but seldom seen. 

Radiant heating can often be a hard sell when uneducated potential customers have an unrealistic expectation of the installed costs. 

We are a non-union mechanical contracting firm, so I’m always a bit uneasy when we end up on large construction jobs where all the other contractors are union shops.

Design-build projects often present interesting challenges, and Tiller’s Garage Service Center would prove to be no exception, except for the unique and unpleasant challenge presented near the project’s end.

As a mechanical contractor, I appreciate bidding jobs when an engineer has provided specifications and will be inspecting the installation for final approval.
