"I can't recommend Jeremy enough for his air compressor services.
A little over a year ago, I brought my 2011 Ingersoll Rand P185 air compressor to another service provider for regular maintenance. While they were very nice, the unit never came back in working order and suffered from overheating issues. They couldn't figure out the problem, so they brought it to another air compressor service company in Hamilton, where I was told it needed a new airend. After spending $14,000 on a newly rebuilt airend, countless hours of diagnostics, and months of waiting, they essentially threw their arms in the air and said they didn't know and were "out of options."
Out of desperation, I called Jeremy. He agreed to come take a look, and the next day he found the issue in three hours. The issue? The radiator fan had been cleaned by the original service provider, but the fan was accidentally re-installed backwards. Instead of pushing hot air out, it was pulling cold air in, causing all of the overheating issues and is most likely what fried the airend. Once Jeremy corrected the fan installation, the compressor ran like new and at ideal temperature.
By that time, the unit had been out of commission for four months. I was ready to give up and buy a brand new air compressor, but since the prices have tripled since 2011 (for the same thing), it was not a decision I wanted to make. If Jeremy hadn't found the problem, the new rebuilt airend most likely would have been ruined as well.
While this was an incredibly costly and stressful experience, Jeremy's expertise saved the day. How both companies missed this glaring issue, I have no idea. But Jeremy is the guy I'll trust going forward with working on my equipment."
