Independent HVAC expertise that prioritizes your interests
Mech-Rx works exclusively for you. We have no financial ties to equipment manufacturers, contractors, or service companies. Our sole incentive is accurate, data-driven analysis.
We do not sell, install, or service HVAC systems. Recommendations are purely based on your system’s condition and your needs.
All diagnostics follow professional engineering principles, using precision instruments and scientific methods for accurate, actionable results.
Every engagement includes a detailed report suitable for contractors, insurance claims, or long-term reference.
We identify the underlying issues rather than just treating symptoms, enabling targeted and cost-effective solutions.
Accurate diagnostics can prevent unnecessary replacements and highlight affordable repairs, potentially saving thousands.
We explain findings in clear language so you understand your system, the causes of issues, and your options.
Multiple contractors provide differing diagnoses or repair costs. We provide a clear, independent assessment of the actual issues.
Before spending thousands on a new system, get an independent evaluation to determine if repair is sufficient.
We measure system efficiency, locate energy losses, and provide actionable strategies to reduce consumption and cost.
Our pre-purchase evaluation or proposal review gives the technical insights needed to make confident, informed decisions.
System running constantly, making noise, or producing uneven temperatures? We can find the root cause with precision diagnostics.
For insurance, warranty, board requirements, or tenant issues, our reports provide authoritative documentation of system condition.
Professional Engineer (PE) license versus general home inspector certification.
Precision HVAC instruments versus basic inspection tools.
Comprehensive performance evaluation versus visual checks.
Root cause diagnosis using thermodynamics and fluid mechanics versus observation of symptoms only.
Home inspections are valuable for general property assessment. Mech-Rx provides in-depth HVAC analysis that inspectors typically cannot perform due to time and scope constraints.
Contractor recommends $12,000 replacement. We diagnose a $400 compressor capacitor issue, extending system life 8–10 years with proper maintenance.
Three service calls yielded no results. We measure duct static pressures and find undersized return air. $2,000 duct modification resolves the issue permanently.
A 15-year-old unit needs $2,500 repair. We evaluate system condition, efficiency, and remaining life to guide the optimal decision.
Replacement quotes range $8,000–$18,000. We review proposals, verify sizing, and explain each option so clients choose confidently.
Our diagnostic fee is typically a fraction of unnecessary repair or replacement costs. Clients often recoup their investment multiple times by:
