Mighty Air & Heating

Common causes include: faulty igniter or ignition module, failed heating element (electric ovens), thermostat or temperature probe failure, gas valve issues, or clogged burner ports. Start by checking error codes on the control panel if equipped. If the oven lights but doesn't reach temperature, the thermostat or temperature probe is often the culprit. A certified technician can diagnose the root cause quickly.

Hood cleaning costs range from $300 to $1,500+ depending on system size, grease accumulation, and accessibility. Small single-hood systems run $300-$500; larger multi-hood systems or restaurants with heavy cooking can run $700-$1,500. Access issues (long duct runs, high roofs) add cost. Budget for cleaning as a fixed operating expense — it's far less expensive than a grease fire, insurance claims, or health violations.

Walk-in door gaskets typically last 2-4 years and should be inspected every 6 months. Signs of failing gaskets: visible tears or cracks, frost buildup near the door frame, condensation on the door frame, noticeably warmer temperatures near the door, or the door not staying closed. A failing gasket forces the compressor to work harder, increasing energy costs and reducing equipment life.
