How SEER Ratings Affect Sizing with Air Conditioning Installation
June 27th, 2014If you’re worried about energy efficiency with your new air conditioning installation, looking at SEER ratings is a great place to begin. The SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) determines how energy efficient your cooling system will be throughout the season. This can be an important factor in lowering your summer energy bills.
3 Distinctive Features of Commercial HVAC Systems
June 20th, 2014In principle, commercial HVAC systems don’t differ in any significant way from residential HVAC systems. Both use constantly cycling refrigerant gas to lower the temperature of the air, which can then be blown through the space via a fan and a system of ducts.

How High Humidity Can Cause Air Conditioning Problems
June 6th, 2014Air conditioners are not designed specifically to combat humidity (although some models have dehumidifiers built into them). However, through their action of absorbing heat from the indoors of a home or building, they also remove some moisture from the air, and this can assist with lowering high humidity levels—and sometimes making a home too dry during periods of low humidity
How Improper Voltage Can Damage Your Air Conditioning System
May 30th, 2014Air conditioning systems depend on a number of different components to work, from the refrigerant gas to the condensate pans removing water from the system. But they all depend on electricity to operate, and when electrical problems occur, it can cause serious damage to the system.
Problems Solved by Duct Repair
May 23rd, 2014The ductwork of your home’s ventilation system must retain an airtight seal along its length. It only takes a small air leak in the ductwork to begin to cause serious problems that will lead to poor heating/cooling, HVAC repairs, and a drop in the quality of your indoor air.
