Why Water Is the Real Emergency in Weston Homes
In a large Weston home, the air handler is often in a finished attic directly above bedrooms, or in a basement mechanical room adjacent to a media room or wine storage. When a condensate pump seizes or a drain line clogs, the secondary pan fills, the float switch cuts cooling, and if that switch has failed too, the overflow finds drywall. We treat condensate failures as the highest-priority emergency call type for exactly that reason. On arrival we stop the water first, then clear the primary and secondary drains, test both float switches, replace the pump if its amp draw or run behavior is marginal, and verify the pan pitch. Restoring cooling comes second — protecting the house comes first, and any technician who does it in the other order is not thinking about your property.
