This is the time of the year to be thankful for all that you have in your life. Your family, your friends, your co-workers, and of course your customers.

I am fortunate and thankful to have a so many great family members working on our truly “Family owned and operated business” including my father, my sister, and my brother-in-law. In addition, I am thankful for hardworking and self motivated employees. From our sales force to our service technicians, everyone has a desire to provide outstanding customer service and the highest quality craftsmanship on every project we perform.

Finally, I am very thankful for each and every customer we serve, and every customer we have the privilege to serve in the future. We are truly blessed and look forward to 2012 and beyond.

Yavapai Plumbing & Heating held a Prescott Valley Chamber of Commerce Mixer at our facility on Wednesday, September 28.  A really nice time was had by all who attended.  I would especially like to thank all of the staff of Yavapai Plumbing and Heating who attended, Wildflower Bread Company for some fabulous food, our non-profit sponsor for the evening Mingus Mountain Academy, and finally the PV Chamber for allowing us to host this event.  We look forward to the next opportunity to host a mixer!

We have heard so much lately about conserving energy, high efficiency HVAC systems, hybrid cars, triple pane low-e windows and the list goes on and on. Sometimes we need to go back to the basics and remember conserving water can be equally as important to a sustainable future.

If you are living in a older home there is a chance some of your plumbing fixtures could be using more water than necessary. Did you know toilets manufactured in the 1980′s or earlier use 3.5 gallons per flush compared to newer toilets that use only 1.6 gallons per flush?

In addition, older shower heads would flow up to 1.5 gallons per minute where newer heads are restricted to .5 gallon per minute. If you are unsure about your fixtures, one call to Yavapai Plumbing and Heating and we can come out to analyze your homes water usage and make recommendations that are right for you and the environment.

Repair vs. Replace……

Before considering going through with an expensive repair to your current Air Conditioner, Furnace, or Water Heater you should evaluate the advantages of replacement. 

Four things to consider before making a repair are as follows:

1.  The cost of the repair.

2.  The future cost of repairs over the next 5 years.

3.  The utility cost savings of new equipment over the same 5 year period.

4.  The cost of inflation of a new system now vs. 5 years from now.

You may find that investing the money you will save by not repairing your old and out dated equipment will make a nice deposit towards a cleaner, quieter, energy saving model that should give you trouble free operations for years to come. 

Yavapai Plumbing & Heating will do a full energy evaluation and recommend a system right for you and your budget at no upfront cost.

What does a Full, One Year Unlimited Guarantee on the purchase and installation of any Heating, Air Conditioning, or Water Heater mean to our customers?  Simple, the risk of buying a service from a contractor has been shifted from the owner and back to the contractor where it should belong.  Why is it so hard to purchase a service from a contractor?  Because you don’t know what you are going to get until the job is done and worse yet, it could be 6 or 8 months down the road when something goes wrong. 

How much purchasing ‘brain damage’ could be relieved from the consumer by offering this type of guarantee?  A ton, and this why Yavapai Plumbing & Heating has decided to offer this very guarantee to our customers.  We believe strongly in our commitment to quality, training, and customer service and have no problem passing on that commitment to our homeowners through our ‘Unlimited One-Year Test Drive’ on any Heating, Air Conditioning, and Water Heaters purchased and installed through our company!
