Oakdale is one of the most established residential communities in the East Metro. From the neighborhoods surrounding Tanners Lake and Oak Marsh Golf Course to homes along Hadley Avenue, Helmo Avenue, and the Interstate 94 corridor, thousands of homeowners rely on systems that were installed during Oakdale’s major growth years between the 1970s and 1990s. Today, many of those homes are entering a new phase where furnaces, air conditioners, water heaters, electrical panels, and other major systems are reaching replacement age.
That’s one reason Oakdale has become one of Hurlburt’s strongest East Metro service markets. We serve approximately 500 local customers annually and work throughout the community every week helping homeowners make informed decisions about repairs, upgrades, and long-term home investments. Call (715) 802-2170 or connect with Hurlburt online to schedule service in Oakdale.
Helping Oakdale Homeowners Plan for the Next Generation of Home Systems
Many Oakdale homeowners have already gone through one round of major equipment replacements. The furnace installed in the early 2000s is now aging. The air conditioner added during a previous remodel is no longer operating as efficiently as it once did. The electrical panel that seemed more than adequate years ago may now be supporting smart devices, home offices, and electric vehicle chargers. Throughout Oakdale, homeowners are making decisions about what to repair, what to replace, and what upgrades will deliver the greatest long-term value.

Responded to no cooling call with thermostat set at 72°F and indoor temperature reading 82°F. Upon inspection, found system critically low on obsolete R22 refrigerant. Evaporator coil showed evidence of previous freeze-up incidents with water damage present on furnace heat exchanger below. Heat exchanger exhibited severe rust and corrosion with areas compromised to the point of potential cracking, creating imminent carbon monoxide safety hazard. Documented conditions with photos showing extensive condensation on furnace components and overall system deterioration. Due to age of equipment, obsolete refrigerant type, multiple component failures, and unsafe heat exchanger condition, recommended complete system replacement rather than repair. Scheduled replacement estimate appointment for customer review of options.

Responded to no cooling complaint on 30-year-old residential air conditioning system. Upon diagnosis, found system critically low on obsolete R22 refrigerant, causing evaporator coil to freeze and resulting in water leakage onto furnace below.

Performed comprehensive AC maintenance on single condenser unit with R-410A refrigerant. Conducted full system inspection including air filter, thermostat operation, condenser unit, evaporator and condenser coils, blower motor, capacitors, compressor, refrigerant levels, and condensate drain line. Readjusted blower motor speed to high setting for optimal cooling performance. Measured temperature split at 13 degrees with ambient outdoor temperature of 65 degrees. System pressure readings and temperature differential indicated potential minor refrigerant deficiency. Provided repair estimate for refrigerant recharge, which was declined. Advised homeowner to monitor system performance and cooling efficiency for any operational changes. System currently operational but may experience reduced efficiency if refrigerant level continues to decline.

Responded to no cooling complaint on two Carrier RTU units. Upon inspection, found both units displaying economizer alarms and unable to enter cooling mode. Discovered outdoor air sensor wiring disconnected on both units. Reconnected the sensor wiring and cleared alarm codes. During system diagnostics, determined that the units require CO2 sensors to be installed for proper compressor operation in cooling mode. The equipment is configured to prevent cooling cycle without functional CO2 sensor input as part of the economizer control strategy. Verified all other system components operational. Documented control board wiring configurations and economizer module settings. Requested two CO2 sensors for installation to restore full cooling functionality to both rooftop units.
