Air Conditioning
If you are used to living in Westminster, you know how brutal the summer heat can be. After an afternoon of outdoor work or play, you will be ready to relax in a nice, cool home. A reliable air conditioner may quickly become the most important appliance in your house during those longest days of the year.
Rely on L&M HVAC & Mechanical to keep you and your family cool throughout the season.

Current models provide excellent cooling and improved energy efficiency.
If you are happy with your current air conditioning system, our trained professionals can come out to inspect, tune up, and clean your system before the heat really hits. On the other hand, if you require repair services, give us a call, and we will be happy to send out a professional to fix your air conditioner as quickly as possible.
Not only does your air conditioner keep you and your family comfortably cool in the Colorado dog days of summer, but it will also dehumidify your indoor air.

Air Ducts
Do you notice some of the rooms in your Westminster home are either warmer or cooler than others? Do you have a room that never quite reaches the comfortable temperature you want? Is your second floor always a little bit uncomfortable? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you are not alone. These are common issues for homeowners, and in many cases, the problem is caused by air duct, or ductwork, issues.
Our professionals at L&M HVAC & Mechanical can help you identify ductwork leaks, poor insulation in your ductwork, or other ductwork problems you may be experiencing. Although ducts are a hidden network behind your home’s walls and floors, they can cost you hundreds of dollars in wasted energy every year if they are not operating at their peak performance.
When you call our team, we will come out and inspect your air duct system. Our trained professionals can seal air duct leaks, ensuring your heated or cooled air makes it to all the rooms in your home. In addition, we will identify duct areas that can benefit from additional insulation such as ductwork running through an uninsulated attic. We may recommend different solutions to help you balance your heating and cooling throughout your Colorado home.
If you are ready to increase your comfort level and save some money on your energy bills, call L&M HVAC & Mechanical at 720-490-9443. Our professionals are ready and waiting to serve you and your family. Request air duct service online today.
Ductless Systems
Have you ever heard of a ductless heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system? Ductless systems provide heating and cooling without forcing air through a network of air ducts in your Westminster home.
Our professionals at L&M HVAC & Mechanical suggest considering a ductless system if you are adding a room or providing customized climate control to a particular space in your home. For example, a ductless system would work great in a Colorado sunroom, man cave, bonus room, or home office. They are also a possible solution for keeping one bedroom extra warm for an elderly family member or as supplemental heating or cooling for a rarely used guest room.
One advantage of a ductless system is it requires a very small hole to be drilled through a wall, which makes installation a breeze and energy loss close to nonexistent. In addition, ductless systems are typically quieter and can reduce your energy bills over time if you are losing energy through a duct system.
Though they can be more expensive initially to purchase, in short time you save enough in energy costs to make the difference back. These are perfect if your home needs a system with a small footprint. We can install them most anywhere in your home.
If you are ready to learn more about ductless systems, call L&M HVAC & Mechanical at 720-490-9443. Our professionals would be happy to share the systems and services we offer. Request ductless system service online today.
Furnaces
Are you ready for the colder weather here in Colorado? Once the days grow short and the nights stretch long, you will want to crank up the heat in your home to make it nice and cozy. A wide range of furnaces from L&M HVAC & Mechanical can help you accomplish that goal. Whether you are purchasing a new furnace or replacing an old one, there are many factors you should consider before making your decision.
One of the first things you want to consider is what size furnace your Westminster home requires. If you select a furnace that is too small, you will have inadequate heat in the coldest days of winter. On the other hand, if you select a furnace that is too large, you will be paying for more heat than you actually need.
Unfortunately, selecting the right size of furnace is a little trickier than simply looking at square footage of your home. Our heating experts will take into account the climate, size, construction, and layout of your home in order to recommend the best furnace size.
In addition, be sure to consider the cost of various energy sources and the energy ratings of furnaces. Certain fuels will be less or more expensive at any given time and will impact the environment differently as well. One thing you can be certain of is that a new furnace will be more efficient than an old one.
When you are ready to purchase a new furnace, call L&M HVAC & Mechanical at 720-490-9443. Our professionals can provide you with all the information you need. Request furnace service online today.
Heat Pumps
If you are looking for a heating and cooling solution in Colorado, you may want to consider a heat pump. Heat pumps simply move warmer air from outside to inside in the winter and from inside to outside in the summer, providing a comfortable indoor temperature.
Since heat pumps do not actually create their own heat, they are more efficient and cost effective than conventional furnaces and air conditioning systems. In fact, heat pumps may provide the same heating and cooling options at one-quarter the cost.
Our professionals at L&M HVAC & Mechanical can help you determine whether a heat pump might be right for you. In the past, heat pumps tended to work best in moderate climates; however, new technology has made heat pumps viable in colder climates today as well.
The air-source heat pump is most commonly available, and it moves the heat between your home and outside. Air-source heat pumps require less electricity when compared with baseboard units and furnaces. Some high-efficiency models can also provide better dehumidification capabilities than conventional air conditioners.
Ductless heat pumps, or mini splits, are an alternative type of heat pump for homes without ductwork. Our professionals can talk with you about these if you are interested.

Indoor Air Quality
Everyone needs a breath of fresh air from time to time. In today’s world of super efficient, well-insulated buildings, there may be even a greater need. Although many advantages of modern construction exist, potentially poor indoor air quality can be one disadvantage. Our team at L&M HVAC & Mechanical is dedicated to ensuring our customers have cleaner indoor air by providing testing and remediation services in Westminster.
Where do indoor air quality problems originate? The issue can vary from home to home, but smoking, pets, dust mites, and chemicals released from cleaning products or new construction can all contribute to poor indoor air quality.
Although many of us live with these and other irritants around us each day, long-term exposure may result in physical discomfort or significant health problems. Some Colorado homeowners may experience symptoms including fatigue, allergies and asthma, flu-like systems, or respiratory issues. Certain air pollutants such as carbon monoxide from faulty heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can cause serious consequences or even death.
Our trained professionals can provide a thorough testing of your indoor air quality as well as suggest the best remediation actions for your home. Simple things like air filters, cleaning air ducts, or installing air purification systems may help improve your air quality a great deal.
If you are ready to check your indoor air quality, call L&M HVAC & Mechanical at 720-490-9443. Our professionals can provide all the needed information for you to make a wise decision. Request indoor air quality service online today.
Plumbing
Homeownership comes with its advantages and its challenges. One of the most stressful things about owning a Westminster home is dealing with plumbing problems. When problems inevitably arise, you could have a minor inconvenience or a major emergency on your hands.
Our team at L&M HVAC & Mechanical provides comprehensive plumbing services to come to your rescue. Whether you are struggling with a dripping faucet or dealing with a broken water line, turn to our trained professionals for assistance.
We have experience with unclogging sinks and toilets, repairing leaks, and a myriad of other plumbing issues that can come up. Failing to address plumbing problems promptly can mean more expensive water damage down the road.
If you are building a new Colorado home or planning an addition to your current one, you may need to install a new plumbing system and fixtures. It is important to understand the intricacies of installing plumbing properly in order to create an efficient and reliable system. If you are adding to your current system, you will want to be sure your new plumbing is correctly integrated into your system.
Even if your plumbing system is functioning well, it is always a smart idea to have a professional perform a regular inspection to check for leaks, sewer line issues, and more. Routine maintenance can help reduce the likelihood of major problems later.

Sheet metal
When you think of your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system in your Westminster home, you probably do not give a lot of thought to the ductwork, or air ducts, that circulates the air throughout your home. But this ductwork plays a significant role in your HVAC system. Our team at L&M HVAC & Mechanical wants you to have a reliable, efficient ventilation system that is as stress- and worry-free as possible.
Most of the time, ducts are installed when a home is built. However, in some cases, ductwork may need to be replaced. The majority of Colorado homes use sheet metal as the material of choice for ductwork as it is strong, durable, and long lasting.
Although fiberglass and flexible ducts are used in some cases, sheet metal ducts are still the most popular. They tend to last the longest and have many fittings available for customization. They also typically stay cleaner longer.
Installing sheet metal ductwork requires a great deal of precise measurements, planning, professional tools, and experience. When installed correctly, you will not have repair or leakage issues with your duct system for many years. In addition, professional sheet metal duct installation can ensure your entire HVAC system runs efficiently.
If you have questions about sheet metal ducts, call L&M HVAC & Mechanical at 720-490-9443. Our trained experts would be happy to help. Request sheet metal duct service online today.
Whole-House Dehumidifiers
Nothing is so draining as heavy humidity in the heat. Cold humidity is scarcely better. Even when it is cool and air is moving, that sticky, clammy feeling is hard to shake off, particularly when it is in your own home. If you have ever had to deal with an unpleasantly damp atmosphere in your Colorado home, it may be time to consider a whole-house dehumidifier.
These handy systems are an easy, efficient way to pull excess moisture out of your Westminster home and prevent problems such as mold, rot, condensation, and other major issues. On a smaller scale, whole-house dehumidifiers can also lower your heating and air conditioning bills by providing a more pleasant atmosphere without pumping more cold or warm air into your home.
If someone in your home suffers from allergies, asthma, or other respiratory issues, high levels of humidity can intensify the problems. While it depends on your unique situation, lowering the humidity levels can dramatically help you and your loved ones.
When you are ready to explore your dehumidifier options, our professionals at L&M HVAC & Mechanical are ready and happy to assist you at 720-490-9443. Request whole-house dehumidifier service online today.
Whole-House Humidifiers
Dry air is easily felt in certain places or during certain times. We can see its effects in our homes, in our pets, and in our families fairly quickly when the dry air is really bad. What got your home to that Colorado in Westminster in the first place?
The short answer is your humidity levels are both imbalanced and probably fluctuate far more than they should on a regular basis. You may only notice it when the humidity dramatically decreases, but that only points to a larger problem. Your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system can’t always properly manage these levels on its own.
One of the simplest ways to deal with constant dry air issues is by installing a whole-house humidifier. These systems are designed specifically to manage humidity levels in your Colorado home in ways that most HVAC systems are not. Depending on your model, they generally work with your HVAC system’s existing ductwork, which can make installation much simpler.
However, it’s certainly not a do-it-yourself (DIY) project. That is where our L&M HVAC & Mechanical professionals can help you discover what systems are best for your needs and to install. Call 720-490-9443 to speak with our knowledgeable team. Request whole-house humidifier service online today.
