Water Heater Services in Madeira & Indian Hill
Finished basements are extremely common throughout neighborhoods near Camargo Club, Madeira neighborhoods off Hosbrook Road, and many homes throughout Indian Hill, which means water heater failures can quickly turn into expensive cleanup situations. We regularly help homeowners replace aging tank water heaters before leaks damage flooring, drywall, or storage areas. National Heating & Air Conditioning provides:
- Water Heater Installation
- Water Heater Repair
- Tankless Water Heaters
- Tankless Water Heater Installation

Many homes throughout Madeira still have older water heaters approaching the end of their lifespan, especially in homes built during the post-war housing boom. Hard water buildup can also reduce efficiency over time and shorten the lifespan of heating elements and internal components. Tankless systems have also become more popular throughout Indian Hill and newer renovated homes where homeowners want longer hot water supply, improved efficiency, and more usable mechanical room space.
Commercial HVAC Services in Madeira & Indian Hill
Madeira and Indian Hill include a mix of professional offices, restaurants, schools, churches, and local businesses throughout the Miami Avenue corridor, Kenwood Road, and areas surrounding Madeira’s downtown business district. Commercial systems here often require careful maintenance because many buildings are older and were renovated over time. Commercial HVAC services include:
- Commercial AC
- Commercial Heating
- Commercial Boilers
- Commercial Heat Pumps
We regularly work with commercial properties that rely on older boiler systems, rooftop equipment, or multi-zone configurations to keep larger spaces comfortable.

Job Locations and Reviews
Performed a replacement estimate on an 11-year-old gas furnace at a two-story home after a prior contractor recommended replacement due to rusty components. Inspected the furnace, plenum, and ductwork, as well as the condensate drain and pump, refrigerant line set, and gas piping, and found no rust or significant damage; the unit is operating and replacement is not currently necessary.
Responded to a recurring boiler complaint and inspected the commercial hydronic system, including the circulator pump and motor assembly and the oil burner motor and housing. Observed heavy oil residue and seepage on the burner housing indicating a possible leak, along with rust, corrosion, and buildup at the pump flanges and connections. Documented all conditions with photos for further repair and maintenance evaluation.
Performed an on-site evaluation for replacement of an aging 80% AFUE gas furnace installed in a utility closet with an attached electronic air cleaner and galvanized plenum. Inspection documented a corroded, mastic-sealed flue pipe, a rusted black iron gas line, deteriorated duct tape at plenum seams, and a PVC condensate drain with cleanout, all of which will be addressed during the replacement. Photographed existing equipment, venting, gas piping, and ductwork connections to support the replacement scope and system sizing.
Performed an on-site evaluation for replacement of the existing split-system cooling and heating equipment, inspecting the attic-mounted air handler with its filter, condensate drain line, insulated refrigerant lines, and electrical disconnect, along with the rooftop-mounted condenser units. Documented the equipment configuration and system components with photos to confirm the existing setup and support a replacement estimate for the AC and furnace.
Removed the existing gas furnace and installed a new Bryant high-efficiency gas furnace in the utility closet, set on the existing pad and connected to the evaporator coil cabinet, supply ductwork, and flexible gas line. Re-established the PVC condensate drain and vent piping, completed electrical connections, and verified safe, proper operation. The existing thermostat was left in place and not replaced.
Inspected the cast-iron radiator and its supply valve, which showed corrosion, mineral buildup, and flaking paint on the valve body, fittings, and connecting pipe. Replaced the radiator valve at the hex-nut union connection, then checked the assembly for proper fit and operation.
Addressed inspection correction by installing locking caps on the condenser's brass service valves to secure the refrigerant access ports. Verified the caps were properly seated on both the liquid and suction line valves and confirmed the insulated suction line remained intact and secured.
Performed an on-site estimate for full heat pump system replacement, inspecting the outdoor condensing unit and the Bryant vertical air handler in the utility closet. Documented the existing equipment, wiring, refrigerant lineset, and condensate piping, and evaluated the lineset for possible replacement with the new system. The outdoor unit showed debris buildup and crowded wiring around the run capacitor, while the indoor unit showed no visible frost, ice, rust, or damage.
Installed and set the commercial rooftop package unit, with electrical connections run in flexible conduit to the junction boxes. The gas line connection and gas line painting were not completed because the gas supply was not available at the time of install. A return visit is required to connect the unit to the gas line and paint the gas piping once gas service is in place.
Replaced existing system with a new Bryant 1.5-ton GH5SAN518 15 SEER heat pump (Puron refrigerant) and a matching FJ5ANXB024 air handler with 5 kW electric heat. Flushed the refrigerant lines, installed a filter rack, and set up the electrical disconnect, whip, and fuses. Removed the old equipment, and both the outdoor and indoor units were left clean, properly connected, and free of visible damage.
Diagnosed a blank thermostat display on the furnace and traced the issue to the condensate drain system. Removed the clogged condensate drain tubing and clamp, which had heavy mineral and debris buildup, and replaced it to restore proper drainage, allowing the furnace safety circuit to reset and thermostat operation to return.
Replaced the failed evaporator coil on the commercial HVAC system, then recovered and recharged refrigerant to the manufacturer-specified weight using a digital refrigerant scale. Verified system operation by measuring supply air temperature at the ceiling diffuser, which read 54.6°F, confirming proper cooling performance.
Performed a replacement estimate survey of the existing basement upflow gas furnace (Lennox, 75k BTU input, 2" PVC flue) and matching Lennox 3-ton single-phase condenser with 7/8" x 3/8" refrigerant line set. Documented ductwork configuration and airflow (1,375 CFM), plastic condensate drain, and electrical service (100-amp G.E. panel with 40-amp breaker), and photographed the aged breaker panel. The estimate scope includes replacement of the furnace, condenser, thermostat, humidifier, and air filter.
Performed an in-home estimate for replacement of an existing Carrier 60k BTU natural gas upflow furnace located in a utility closet of a 2-story home, documenting unit dimensions, 2" PVC flue, brick wall construction, and plastic floor drain configuration. The existing thermostat was evaluated and slated for replacement, and the proposed system includes a new 3-ton single-phase Goodman unit with a new wet switch, with the existing air filter retained and no humidifier present.
Performed post-installation warranty visit on a recently installed Bryant gas furnace with evaporator coil and PVC condensate/venting. Evaluated the system for inline fan sizing and documented the existing equipment configuration, and assessed rerouting the condensate drain to the floor drain near the furnace instead of the utility sink. Noted damp areas on the concrete floor at the base of the furnace, with no significant frost, ice, or heavy rust observed on the equipment.
Performed a replacement estimate on an existing Peerless oil-fired hydronic boiler. Inspection found an aged unit with worn paint, rust staining and corrosion inside the combustion chamber access opening, and a galvanized flue connection. Documented the circulator, piping, controls and relief valve configuration for the replacement scope.
Responded to a no-operation call on a commercial boiler and found the unit had lost its power supply. Inspected the electrical supply to the boiler, including the line-voltage feed and disconnect/outlet arrangement mounted on the equipment room wall, and verified conduit, wiring, and power cord connections. Restored power and verified the boiler returned to normal operation.
Inspected the cast iron radiator and associated steam/hot water piping in response to non-functioning thermostatic radiator valves. Observed heavy paint deterioration with surface corrosion on the supply piping, valve stub, and floor flange, along with aged radiator valve fittings. Documented the system condition for further evaluation of the valves and piping.
Responded to a no-heat call on a commercial gas-fired steam boiler and performed a diagnostic inspection of the burner controls, electrical control enclosure, and associated piping. Found the boiler in severely deteriorated condition, with heavy rust and corrosion on the casing and lower piping, active moisture and residue at the base, a damaged casing section, and exposed control wiring in the open control box. Documented findings with photos and recommend corrective repairs and further evaluation of boiler and piping integrity to restore safe, reliable operation.
Installed a new Goodman 927TA60100V21 gas furnace, reconnecting to the existing ductwork, condensate drain line, and gas line, and added a new filter rack with filter on the return duct. Replaced the thermostat with a Honeywell T6 and the humidifier with a 600M unit, then verified operation with a combustion analysis (O2 11.6%, CO 91 ppm, CO2 5.3%, flue temp 87°F) and confirmed the thermostat and humidifier control were functioning properly.
