In pressurized water systems commonly used today, one danger to watch out for is backflow, a phenomenon whereby contaminated water flows the wrong direction back into the potable water supply. If this should happen, call Affordable Service’s 24/7 emergency service.
Fully operational plumbing systems are a must when it comes to commercial real estate.

Your gas or electric hot water heater is one of your home’s biggest users of energy. Keeping a 40 gallon tank of water heated to 120 degrees for 24 hours a day may give you some convenience, but the cost to maintain that temperature adds up.
You don't want to experience a hot summer day without air conditioning, so there are a few tips you should follow to ensure you keep your air conditioning running at its peak potential.
When the New Mexico Summer days begin to reach the 100 degree mark, and are then followed by the annual New Mexico monsoon season rains, the humidity becomes unbearable if you’re coming home to a swamp cooler! The one main nemesis of the evaporative (swamp) cooling is HUMIDITY! When the humidity rises above 60 percent, swamp coolers become useless for cooling!
If you’ve had a service call from a plumbing, heating and cooling company, you’ve likely been offered a service agreement. While your first reaction may be to decline the agreement and just pay for that day’s service, there may be good reasons why a HVAC service agreement is a good strategy.
Indoor air quality (IAQ), also sometimes called indoor environmental quality, is defined by how inside air can affect a person’s comfort, health, and even their ability to work. Factors that affect IAQ might include humidity, temperature, poor ventilation, mold in the air, or exposure to chemical fumes.
If your home has been cooled by a swamp cooler, you may wonder about the costs and benefits of changing to refrigerated air conditioning. At Affordable Service, many customers ask if they should convert to refrigerated air, or continue to use their evaporative cooler. This list of questions may help you decide if converting your swamp cooler to air conditioning is right for you:
As our New Mexico days begin to warm up, all homeowners and business owners reach the point where it’s time to change from using the heater to running the cooling system. It’s important to thoroughly check your refrigerated air system before the first hot day—prevention and regular maintenance will extend its life and reduce your energy bills!
When the air conditioning system in your Albuquerque or Rio Rancho home or office stops working, you need help—fast and affordably! Affordable Service HVAC offers prompt air conditioning repair service for residential and commercial properties.

If you’re experiencing a sewer backup, call Affordable Service for 24/7 response and resolution. Just like the interior plumbing in a building can become clogged, your sewer lines that connect your home to city sewer lines can clog and backup. Overflowing sewage can back up into your home or commercial building; often sewer backups are caused by putting items such as diapers or paper towels down the toilet, or by oils or grease put down the drains that create a clog.
