In the warmer months (or most of the year here in St Augustine, FL), your energy costs may seem to skyrocket. Running an air conditioner can be expensive, so if you need a new air conditioning system, you’re probably looking for something that won’t break the bank from month to month.
Today’s air conditioners can run extremely efficiently if you purchase a model with a high efficiency rating and schedule regular maintenance with a technician. That said, air conditioners generally consume more energy than many of the other appliances and fixtures in your home. When an air conditioner is in need of repair, it’s often due to electrical problems.
Spring is almost here, which means it’s just about time for spring cleaning. Many people in Jacksonville, FL take the opportunity to get everything in order in the home in the spring, when the weather is ideal and the change in the climate presents an opportune time to have a yard sale, clean up the yard, and work up a sweat scrubbing and emptying storage spaces indoors.
A heat pump is a great choice for a home heating system. They are energy efficient, safe, and versatile. However, heat pumps are also vulnerable to just as many repair issues as any other kind of heating system. As heat pumps tend to be more uncommon than furnaces or boilers, many homeowners are unaware of the symptoms that indicate a problem with them.
Hollywood has always tried to match movies up to the seasons to draw droves of viewers to the theaters: October is packed with fright-offerings, while the winter holidays skew toward warm and pleasing family films (as well as Oscar hopefuls).
It’s one of those distinct feelings: you can tell, just from your toasty morning bed, that the air in your home is just too chilly. You slough off your covers, go down into your basement, and sure enough, your heater is as quiet as a church mouse. Why?
Everyone hears strange noises coming from their furnace at one point or another. Though not all furnace noises indicate that something is wrong with your furnace, there are quite a few sounds that do. If you don’t know which noises indicate a serious problem, you won’t know when to call a professional until it’s too late.
It really stinks to have your furnace not come on when you really need it. Though the problem is likely beyond your ability to fix, there are a few things you can do before calling an HVAC technician to look at it for you. After all, investigating the issue is better than sitting in your cold house, waiting for the problem to resolve itself.
Most homeowners don’t pay too much attention to the ductwork of their home as long as they have somewhat sufficient heating or cooling power. Of course, the ducts are vital in the heating and cooling process, bringing air to the HVAC equipment so that it can heat up or cool off and then delivering the newly conditioned air into the home.
