Protect Your Home and Your Neighbors
If your facility or condo complex has lived through the nightmare of a water leak from an HVAC unit, or if you are proactively looking to avoid one, we have the solution for you!
Because a large number of units were constructed at the same time, Plumbing & HVAC failures tend to run in batches. This can easily result in an insurance nightmare from successive claims.
Multiple-unit insurance claims are also the norm when one unit’s water leak quickly spreads to involve neighbors on all sides. The hassle of handling the cleanup, mold remediation and required repairs pales only in comparison to irate owners and tenants.
One of the most common problems homeowners face with their air conditioning systems is sudden and seemingly inexplicable leaking. When a central air conditioner begins to leak large amounts of water all over your floor, it can lead to major damage. This can be catastrophic for a multi-family, multi-level living development like condos and high-rises.
What’s Normal Condensation & What’s Not?
If you see a small amount of water coming out of a pipe leaking from your air conditioner when it is on, this is probably normal condensation and is nothing to worry about. If the water is coming out from somewhere other than the drain, or if it is excessive, then there is a problem.
Running your air conditioning system while it is leaking water will only worsen the problem and reduce the efficiency and lifetime of your central air system and may cause serious damage to your property and others.
DID YOU KNOW:
Did you know that in 2013 the average HVAC related insurance claim was $3,659 per residential claim and $20,459 per commercial claim. A staggering number (34% of these system evaluated) were ultimately diagnosed as “wear and tear”, not “damaged” or “claim withdrawn”.
We can help you avoid these issues by installing a Safety Switch on your air conditioning system to elimate leaks and floods. See our flyer for more details—> FSSafetySwitch2013
