Frequently Asked Questions
What’s a normal frequency to be servicing my HVAC system?
At least once a year, ideally twice, especially for older systems that benefit more from regular attention. Consistent service helps aging equipment run efficiently and avoid unexpected breakdowns.
How often should I change my air filters?
Every three months for most homes. With pets or in a dustier area, change them more often. A clean filter helps your system run its best and keeps your indoor air cleaner.
How do I know whether to repair or replace my system?
If your system needs frequent repairs, is near the end of its life, or can’t keep the house comfortable, replacement is often the better value. Air conditioners and heat pumps usually last 10 to 15 years, furnaces and boilers 15 to 20. Petri Plumbing can inspect yours and help you decide.
Why is my air conditioner running but not cooling?
This often points to a dirty filter, low refrigerant, or aging components that are struggling to keep up. A technician can diagnose the specific cause.
How can I improve the air quality in my home?
High-efficiency filtration, air purifiers, humidifiers or dehumidifiers, and better ventilation all help. Petri Plumbing can run IAQ testing in Kensington to find out what’s in your air, then recommend the right combination.
Do you offer emergency service in Kensington?
Yes. Petri Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency service in Kensington for urgent plumbing, heating, cooling, and sewer problems, with same-day booking often available. Burst pipe, no heat, sewage backup, or any other emergency, call us right away.
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?
Watch for a water bill that climbs for no clear reason, damp spots or stains on walls and floors, a musty smell, low water pressure, or the sound of running water when everything’s off. Petri Plumbing uses professional leak detection to find and repair hidden leaks in Kensington.
What’s the difference between drain cleaning and sewer cleaning?
Drain cleaning usually handles one clogged fixture, like a sink, tub, or toilet. Sewer cleaning deals with the main line carrying wastewater out of the house. If several fixtures back up at once, the trouble is likely in the sewer line. We can tell you which one you need.
When should I get a sewer inspection?
A camera inspection makes sense before buying a home, before planning a sewer repair, or when you’ve got recurring clogs, gurgling drains, or sewer odors. It lets us see inside the line and recommend the right fix without unnecessary digging.
How do I choose the right home services company in Kensington?
Look for one that’s licensed and insured, well reviewed by neighbors, upfront about pricing, and experienced with the specific work you need. Petri Plumbing checks every one of those boxes for Kensington homeowners.

We can’t say enough about the great job that Will did clearing out our clogged tub drain…after trying to snake it out and having no luck, he used the water blaster (?) and kept trying and finally succeeded…Will was great!👍
Great experience with Petri! Started with Faison who came earlier in week and gave me estimate and did some quick fixes for free. Then Josue and Will came to replace my water heater. They walked me through the process , tagged all my plumbing for me and let me record videos to
