A lot of people rely on window AC units and portable heaters for home comfort throughout the year. But this simply is not the best option if you’re looking for long-term efficiency. Most likely, you don’t feel as comfortable as you would like. And you’re spending more than you have to just to cool or heat small portions of your house at a time.
When we hear about homeowner’s year-round home comfort woes, we often recommend a heat pump. Heat pumps are not just for heating. They are actually some of the most efficient air conditioning systems around, that just so happen to be extremely efficient for heat in our climate as well.
Saving money is a common New Year’s resolution, but many people don’t look at all the ways they can be saving around the home. Budgeting for groceries and entertainment is a start, but why not also focus on how to cut back on monthly bills and leave more money for what you really want?
This year, make a resolution to save money on the systems you use every day!
The winter holidays are almost here, and you want to make sure you, your family, and your guests will be as comfortable as possible. We want to help you do that—without worrying about your air conditioner breaking down in the middle of your holiday dinner and without spending too much.
For more information or to schedule a maintenance session for your AC system before the holidays are in full swing, give us a call. Take a look at our list and learn how you can feel more comfortable all season long.
The more often you use your air conditioning system, the faster the components wear down. When you set your air conditioning system to the lowest temperature, you can quickly wear out the unit and harm the efficiency of the system. And besides, you probably don’t need the temperature to be so low!
Saving money can be difficult in the summertime, when your air conditioning system is running for most of the day. And your air conditioning system might have lost some efficiency over the years. But if it’s not quite ready for an upgrade, there are still some efficiency upgrades you can make, and they can last in your home for many years to come.
Dealing with a company who specializes in home services can be a rough process. It’s tough to know what to expect from a company you’ve never worked with before, and inviting them into your home can be a little scary. But if you choose quality technicians to complete the work, you’ll never have to worry about finding a new group of technicians again. You’ll have a go-to source for all of your heating and AC needs, and we want to help you find that company.
Your local heating and air conditioning technicians have years of experience and training in the HVAC industry, which is why you entrust any services or installations to them—rather than attempting to service a large HVAC system on your own. Unfortunately, some HVAC companies take advantage of this trust by charging outrageous prices or providing services that do not really help the customer. If you’re worried that your technician is cashing in on your heating and cooling troubles, don’t be afraid to call in for a second opinion!
The air filter in your air conditioning system is fairly easy to change. Usually, the filter is located behind a return grille in a central location in the home. In some cases, you need to look on the blower unit itself. All that’s left to do is to find a replacement filter, toss out the old one, and secure the new one into place. With reusable filters, you’ll need to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
While your air conditioning system can make you feel like you live in an area with a colder climate, the system itself is never supposed to freeze. If you take a look at your air conditioner this summer only to find that the system is icing over, it’s definitely something to be concerned about. In this guide, we’ve detailed the reasons for this issue so that you can take preventive steps and seek the proper professional services for repair.
