Regular maintenance, such as changing air filters every 90 days and scheduling annual system checks, can greatly enhance your system’s efficiency. Sealing leaks in ductwork and installing a programmable thermostat also contribute to improved performance.
Programmable thermostats help reduce energy consumption by allowing you to set temperatures according to your schedule, ensuring the system is only used when needed. This not only lowers utility bills but also extends the life of your HVAC system.
Consider replacing your HVAC system if it is more than 15 years old, requires frequent repairs, causes an increase in energy bills, or fails to maintain a comfortable temperature. Investing in a new system can be more cost-effective in the long run.
Yes, regular maintenance can prevent most common HVAC breakdowns by identifying and fixing minor issues before they become major problems. This keeps your system running smoothly and can extend its lifespan.
Maintenance and Repairs
We recommend servicing your HVAC system at least once a year. If you have heating and cooling in one system, a single annual check-up is typically sufficient. However, for systems under heavy use, semi-annual checks (spring for cooling, fall for heating) may be beneficial.
Simple issues like replacing dirty filters, checking thermostat settings, or resetting a tripped circuit breaker can often be handled without professional help. However, for more complex issues like refrigerant leaks or electrical faults, it’s important to call a professional.
If you notice water leaking, first check if the condensate drain line is clogged and clear it if necessary. If the problem persists, contact us to assess whether the drain pan is damaged or if there’s a refrigerant leak.
Installation and Upgrades
Consider the size of your space, the system’s energy efficiency ratings (SEER and HSPF), the type of system best suited for your climate, and potential energy rebates. Our experts can help assess your needs based on these factors and recommend the best options.
Energy-efficient systems use less energy to operate, which lowers your utility bills and reduces your carbon footprint. They also often come with extended warranties and can increase the property value of your home.
A typical installation can take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours, depending on the complexity of the system and the specific setup of your home. Larger systems or those requiring extensive ductwork modifications may take longer.
