Our Workmanship

This is a 'Before and After' presentation of a typical
remodel that we recently worked on.

Before...

This is the origianal unit that we replaced. We found it
in pretty bad shape.  It was hanging crooked, falling
apart, leaking air into the attic, and the owners
complained of it being very noisy. Not to mention that it
never heated or cooled to their liking. Plus, their
electric bill was way too high.


This system was so
inefficient, the
owners had to add
a window unit to
their bedroom
because they were
not getting enough
cool airflow. This
was another reason
their elec bill was
so high.

This was the old indoor coil. It's job is to absorb heat
from the air that passes through it and send you cool
air throughout you home.  As you can see, it was very
clogged with years of dust in the air due to this unit's
poor air filtration.

The coil being clogged with dirt caused it to leak more
water than it could properly drain. This caused water to
leak into its emergency drain pan. (seen within the red
circle above) The problem was that it leaked into the
pan so much that it clogged the pan's drain line and
often overflowed, which caused water damage in the
ceiling. You can tell by the rust in the pan that this has
been happening for some time. You could have water
dripping into you ceiling causing expensive damage to
your home without knowing about it until it is too late!

The above two pictures illustrate how after a few years
of operation and without proper air filtration, dust starts
to accumulate throughout the ducts. This dust, dirt, pet
dander, and allergens will come back out into the air
flow. This caused a huge problem in air quality,
especially if there are those with allergy problems in
the home.

Some of the reason for insufficient air flow in a home is
caused by poor duct design and installation.  This duct
was crushed because it was put in the attic walkway
and got stepped on. The air wasn't able to flow freely
throughout the system.

Another air flow problem is at the unit itself.  Poor
installation caused this plenum to leak air right into the
attic, taking away from the total air going into the home.

An astounding discovery was made when we were
taking away the old duct system. After pulling away the
outer insulation, we found that this metal duct had
come apart long ago and air was just dumping into the
attic.

Conclusion...

The reason for these before pictures was to show that
there are several things that could go wrong because
of inefficient and low-quality equipment as well as a
poor installation.  Some problems you might never
know about until it is too late or until the system is
checked by one of our certified technicians.
But with the high-efficient, high-quality Trane
equipment and with Work Environmental's "Denton
County Famous" workmanship, all heating and cooling
problems can be detected and solved. And with a new
Trane system you can have a healthy, safe and
comfortable home. Not to mention a much lower
electric and gas bill!

After...

See how we remodeled the above home with a brand
new ultra-efficient Trane system. As always, we took
great care to design a precise system for this home's
needs and to provide expert workmanship.

Here is their new Trane system!  We made many
custom parts to accurately fit our system in their attic
without compromising the systems efficiency. We ran
much needed new duct, new exhaust vent pipe and
new drain lines with a condensate safety switch. We
also added an Electronic Air Cleaner to get rid of all
the dust and allergens, and we installed a germicidal
UV light to kill germs that could harm the family. We
made sure our installation was air-tight and
super-durable. Because even with good equipment, a
poor installation can still make for an inefficient system

Within the red circle is the  Electronic Air Cleaner. This
device helps to keep allergens out of the air.

Within this circle is the UV light. At the bottom middle
you can see the white condensate switch that we install
in order to keep any condensate water from
overflowing onto the ceiling.

Here is what our duct looks like.  It allows good air flow
and is sealed tight so no air is wasted by blowing into
the attic. It is very well insulated to provide the most
heating and cooling efficiency.

The End Result...

With our skilled design, quality Trane equipment,
proper air filtration, proper air flow, and expert
installation, the differences between the old system
and the new system were phenomenal!
Before, some of the rooms hardly got any air at all and
the air that did make it to any rooms was not adequate
for heating or cooling the home. It was also very noisy.
After we installed the Trane system, all the rooms
received the correct amount of air and it heated and
cooled very efficiently even by being whisper quiet.
The home owners were very surprised that the hottest
and stuffiest room in the house was "cool as an early
spring morning" when the cooling was turned on.  We
made sure that our system provided everything that we
said it would and more.  

That is why Work Environmental is famous for our
"Expert Workmanship"
