HVAC Inspection in West Bend

HVAC Inspection in West Bend, Palo Alto County, by Closer Look Inspectors. West Bend is the Grotto of the Redemption town, with older homes on flat pothole till.

An HVAC inspection — a furnace inspection and air-conditioner check in one visit — covers a home's furnace, air conditioner, ductwork and controls for age, condition and safety — including the cracked heat exchangers that show up in aging Iowa furnaces.

Local housing

Homes in West Bend.

West Bend housing runs to older homes in the Grotto town, across the town core near the Grotto, on flat Palo Alto pothole till near the West Fork Des Moines — and that mix shapes what a hvac inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in West Bend

West Bend sits on Des Moines Lobe till — heavy, poorly drained clay that holds water against foundations and moves with moisture, which is what drives basement seepage and foundation cracking across central Iowa. West Bend sits in Palo Alto County, and every Iowa county is EPA Radon Zone 1. Iowa HHS reports Iowa has the largest percentage of homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level of any state — 71.6 percent in the Iowa Radon Survey — and the Iowa seller disclosure form asks for any known radon test results. Finished basements concentrate it, and only a 48-hour test gives you this home's number. Iowa leaves frost depth to the local building code rather than one statewide number, and the annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear that West Bend-area homes face.

Questions

Common questions.

Will you run the furnace and AC?
Yes, when conditions allow. We do not run air conditioning in freezing weather, and we note when that limits the test.
When is a furnace too old?
Most furnaces last 15 to 20 years. We report the unit's age, condition and any safety concern, including heat-exchanger cracks.
Do you cover West Bend?
Yes — Palo Alto County is in range. The older stock around the Grotto gets its services and foundations dated, and the flat pothole ground keeps grading and basement moisture in the lead, with radon the standing Iowa priority.
