Sewer Camera Inspection

Before you dig up your yard chasing a clog, let us take a look inside your sewer line. Our high-definition sewer cameras provide a crystal-clear view of what’s happening underground. We identify blockages, cracks, and root intrusion in real time — saving you time, money, and unnecessary mess. It’s precision plumbing at its best.

Keeping Freeport Cool and Comfortable All Year Long

Florida heat is no joke — and neither is a broken air conditioner. That’s why Merckle Plumbing also provides expert HVAC installation, maintenance, and repair. Our technicians ensure your system runs efficiently, saving you money on energy bills and keeping your home comfortable through every season.

A/C Installation & Replacement

Florida heat demands serious cooling power — and that starts with the right air conditioning system. At Merckle Plumbing, we design and install custom A/C systems tailored to your home’s square footage, insulation, and energy needs. Our licensed HVAC pros handle everything from sizing and duct design to installation and setup.

Ductwork Repair & Replacement

Routine maintenance is the secret to a reliable, efficient HVAC system — and fewer emergency calls. Our seasonal tune-ups include coil cleaning, refrigerant checks, electrical testing, and filter replacement to keep everything running like new. Regular servicing helps prevent costly breakdowns, extend equipment life, and maintain top performance even in the toughest Florida weather.

Thermostat & Control Upgrades

Leaky or damaged ducts can waste up to 30% of your cooled air — and your money. We inspect, repair, or fully replace old ductwork to restore proper airflow and balance throughout your home. Better ducts mean cleaner air, lower energy bills, and more consistent room temperatures.

Thermostat & Control Upgrades

Take command of your comfort with smart thermostat technology. We install and configure the latest programmable and Wi-Fi thermostats that let you control your home temperature from anywhere. Smart controls help reduce energy use, lower monthly bills, and give you total comfort with a tap. Whether you want to modernize your system or just replace a broken control, we’ll make sure your HVAC listens when you say “cool down.”

Emergency HVAC Response

When the Florida heat hits hard and your A/C quits, we’re ready to roll. Merckle Plumbing offers emergency HVAC services to get your system back online fast. Our on-call technicians bring fully stocked trucks for same-day repairs, even during peak summer demand. We don’t leave you sweating it out — we’ll restore comfort quickly, safely, and with the same humor and honesty you expect from a local crew that truly knows its 💩.

Don’t Wait Until It’s an Emergency

Whether it’s a burst pipe or a tired air conditioner, the pros at Merckle Plumbing are just a call away. We’re licensed, insured, and a little too good at what we do — because, well, we know our 💩.
