Built for Homes Beyond the City Water Main

Brick Street Plumbing Heat & Air is a plumber & HVAC in Green Valley, MD that understands homes on larger lots, where the water may come from a private well and the heat may come from a heat pump, oil or propane instead of a gas line. Dial (240) 969-4911 whenever the water or the heat stops. We are available 24/7 and never add overtime fees. Our technicians are certified in both plumbing and HVAC, so the person who fixes your pressure tank can also look at the heat pump that stopped defrosting.

Green Valley is an unincorporated community in southeastern Frederick County, set among rolling farmland between New Market and Mount Airy. Most homes are single-family houses with basements, private systems and long runs of pipe between the well, the house and the outbuildings. That setup means a few problems come up again and again: low water pressure, hard water scale, sump pumps working through wet springs, and frozen hose bibs in January. Our company is based in Leesburg, VA, and Green Valley is part of the Frederick County territory on our service area page.

WELL WATER HOMES

When the Water Comes From Your Own Well

On a private well, you are the water company. The pump, pressure tank, pressure switch and any treatment equipment all belong to you, and when one of them fails the whole house goes dry. We troubleshoot from the pressure switch outward. A tank that has lost its air charge makes the pump cycle on and off constantly. A failing switch can leave you with no water even though the pump is fine. When the pump itself is done, we handle well pump installation and set the system up so it runs at a steady pressure. Mineral-heavy well water is also hard on fixtures and water heaters. A water softener or whole-house filter can cut down on scale and staining.

HEATING CHOICES

Heat Pumps, Oil, Propane and Backup Heat

Without a natural gas line, rural homes tend to heat with a heat pump, an oil or propane furnace, a boiler, or some combination. Each one has its own weak points. Heat pumps rely on a defrost cycle that can fail and leave the outdoor coil packed with ice. Fuel-burning furnaces need clean burners and a working ignition. Boilers depend on circulator pumps and valves that wear with age. Cooling matters too. A heat pump that struggles in August will usually struggle in January, because the same compressor, refrigerant circuit and outdoor fan handle both seasons. Catching a weak capacitor or a dirty coil during a summer visit can save you from a cold-weather breakdown, which is why we suggest a check before each season. We service all of them, and we can talk through upgrades when your system is near the end of its life. Our services page lists everything we install and repair.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my water pressure suddenly low on a well system?

Sudden low pressure on a well usually comes from the pressure tank, the pressure switch or a clogged sediment filter. Check the filter first if you have one, since a packed cartridge can choke flow to the whole house. If the filter is clean, the tank may have lost its air charge or the switch contacts may be worn. A technician can test each part and tell you whether the pump itself is involved.

Do you service propane and oil furnaces in Frederick County?

Yes. Our HVAC technicians repair and maintain furnaces regardless of fuel, including propane and oil units common in homes without natural gas service. We also work on heat pumps, boilers and ductless mini splits. If your system uses a heat pump with a fuel-burning backup, we can check both halves on one visit and make sure they switch over at the right temperature.

How can I keep outdoor faucets from freezing in a Maryland winter?

Disconnect garden hoses before the first hard freeze, then shut off the interior valve that feeds each outdoor faucet if your home has one and open the outside spigot to drain it. Frost-free hose bibs help, but only when the hose is removed so water can drain back. If a faucet already froze and split, call us before turning the water back on, since the crack may be inside the wall.

Is a water softener worth it with well water?

Often, yes. Well water in central Maryland can carry enough minerals to leave white scale on fixtures, shorten the life of water heaters and make soap less effective. A softener removes the hardness minerals, while other filters handle iron, sediment or odor. Testing the water first shows what is actually in it, so the equipment matches the problem instead of guessing.

Do I need a plumber or an HVAC technician for a leaking air handler?

Either one can help with us, because our technicians are certified in both trades. Water around an air handler or furnace is usually a clogged or disconnected condensate drain, a failed condensate pump, or a frozen coil that melted. Turn the system off, wipe up the water and call. We clear the drain, check the pump and coil, and fix whatever caused the overflow.
