After You Move In

Every Eaglewood Home goes through a number of inspections from City Inspections, Engineer Inspections, and our own inspections. Every effort is made to build a home that will provide you with years of enjoyment. Your home is registered with the Texas Residential Construction Commission as well as with HOME of Texas, our 10 Year Limited Warranty provider. For your convenience, below is a partial list of phone numbers which were included with your closing package.

Our web site also contains a Warranty Request Form which you may use instead of the one provided in your closing package. As a reminder, all Warranty Request, except emergencies, need to be submitted in writing.

Homeowner Maintenance Tips

1.      Filters for the HVAC. It is important to change your filters on a regular basis. When you first move in, they should be changed at the end of the first 30 days and per the manufacturer's recommendations thereafter. Dirty filters reduce air flow and force your system to operate longer to achieve the desired comfort level.

2.      HVAC Fan does not work. All homes have a safety switch close to the furnace. Most of the time they look similar to a light switch. If someone has been in the attic or the furnace closet, the switch may have been placed in the “off” position while trying to operate the light.

3.      Maintaining drainage around your home. It is important to maintain the grade that was established when you moved into your home. It was graded to keep water flowing away from your foundation. When you water your yard, be sure to water evenly around your home so the soil maintains the same amount of moisture. This will help prevent uneven movement of the foundation. After heavy rains, some water may stand for up to 24 hours in your yard but not next to your foundation.

4.      HVAC fan operation. Your HVAC system is designed to be energy efficient. When using your Air Conditioning, the fan stays on approximately 20 seconds after the compressor shuts down to move all the cooled air out of the ducts. When using your heater, the fan comes on for approximately 20 seconds prior the pilot light as a safety feature and remains on approximately 20 seconds after the furnace shuts down to move all the heated air out of the ducts.

5.      Whistle noise related to plumbing. All exterior hose bibs have a back flow preventer on them to prevent contamination of your drinking water. If the hose bib valve is left partially open it creates a whistle noise inside the home.

6.      The furnace pilot light does not stay on. All of our gas fueled furnaces have a pilot less ignition. It operates on demand and does not stay on after automatic shut down.

7.      GFCI and ARC fault circuits. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter outlets are installed in the kitchen, bathrooms, two on the exterior, and one in the garage. If a GFCI outlet does not work, operate the reset button to reset the circuit.  ARC fault circuits are installed in each bedroom.  They work similar to the GFCI, but need to be reset at the breaker box.  ARC fault circuits can be tripped when a light bulb flickers or burns out.

8.      Dishwasher does not work. All homes have a safety switch in the general vicinity of the sink. If the switch is in the off position the dishwasher will not operate.

9.      For your convenience. A touch up kit with interior and exterior paints, touch up brushes, and a tube of caulk is provided with each home.
