Owned by a Mechanical Engineer, Villanova alum, and career Navy Veteran, I provide independent assessment of residential and small retain mechanical systems health. Not governed by HVAC equipment sales and repair quotes.
Mech-Rx was founded on a basic principle: property owners deserve non-biased and thorough analysis of their HVAC systems without hype or pressure.
In the current HVAC business model, system issues often lead directly to recommendations for equipment replacement. These recommendations may range from $5,000 to $50,000. My expertise it to systematically and calmly aid a home owner in navigating the maze of unfamiliar areas where most have limited experience yet face big decisions. I fully support and applaud the expertise of HVAC servicing and installing companies by providing an independent and non-biased assessment. This works to provide peace of mind and may result in better value decisions for repairs and eventual equipment upgrades.
Mech-Rx is owned and operated by a Professional Mechanical Engineer with the P.E. designation. Having worked in industry for over 30 years, my experience combines formal seducation and wrench-turning practical experience in mechanical systems. This expertise, along with honesty, empathy, and integrity are how I work to support clients.
I earned and maintain mechanical engineering licensure demonstrating competency and adherence to high professional standards.
Academic foundation in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and HVAC system design and operation.
Extensive career experience with much large systems such as data centers, commercial chiller plants, and commercial and residential heating and air-conditioning systems.
I have an extensive investment in the proper diagnozstics equipment and tools necessary to assess and diagnose residential and small retail HVAC systems with an understaning of how to systematically diagnose system health and issues.
Because I do not directly install or sell HVAC equipment, I have no financial incentive to recommend replacement over repair. My objective is accurate diagnosis and un-biased recommendations.
Diagnostics generally includes pressure and temperature analysis, airflow measurements, temperature differentials, low voltage checks, and other vital measurable performance indicators.
Every consultation includes documented findings, measurements, and recommendations.
Technical analysis is translated into plain language, enabling you to make informed decision-making.
Based in Wynnewood, Mech-Rx serves residential and small commercial properties throughout the Main Line and surrounding communities within approximately a 20-mile radius. Maintaing a smaller local footprint is better for me and you.
