  • How often should I have my HVAC system serviced?

    Industry professionals recommend annual maintenance for your HVAC system. For optimal performance, it's advisable to have your air conditioning inspected in spring and your heating system checked in autumn. This regular upkeep enhances system efficiency, prolongs equipment life, and helps avoid unexpected malfunctions.
  • How can I improve my home's indoor air quality with my HVAC system?

    To enhance your home's indoor air quality using your HVAC system, ensure regular filter replacements, maintain clean ductwork, and utilize high-efficiency filters. Consider installing additional components such as air purification systems, ultraviolet lights, or humidifiers. Adequate ventilation is also crucial for maintaining healthy indoor air conditions.
  • Are whole-house humidifiers worth it?

    Tired of dry skin, chapped lips, and a stuffy nose? Dry air can be the cause of many of these problems. Fortunately, your air quality can be improved with a whole-house humidifier.
  • Why is airflow from my vents weak or uneven?

    Weak or inconsistent airflow from vents can result from several factors, including clogged filters, obstructed vents, duct leakage, or problems with the blower motor. To maintain proper airflow throughout your home, it's important to change filters regularly and conduct periodic duct inspections.
  • Why is my thermostat blank?

    The batteries in the thermostat may need to be replaced.
  • Why should I replace my R-22 outdoor unit with the new R-454B?

    R-22 refrigerant and equipment have been phased out. Replacement parts and refrigerants for old R-22 units are difficult to find and more expensive, so replacing your unit now can save you headaches in the future.
