When choosing a new HVAC contractor, there are a few things you can do to make sure you find the right one.
When a professional HVAC contractor comes to your home, they can evaluate your specific comfort preferences, needs, and even look at the size of your house. This will dictate the solutions they offer you and it’ll give them a better idea of how much the work will cost.
AC maintenance is a necessary service, that provides a multi-point inspection of your air conditioning system. As part of this process, they can adjust efficiency levels, replace or repair small components that are worn down, and lubricate ball bearings. This ensures your system runs at peak performance.
Springtime is the most convenient time to buy a new air conditioner, since you’ve got plenty of time to get it set up. However, you can call our team for a new air conditioning installation at any time of the year!
Yes, as long as your AC is shut off and the thermostat is set to “heating” mode, you can cover your air conditioning unit to protect it from dirt, debris, snow, pebbles, and critters that might otherwise harm it.
Furnaces last between 10-15 years if they get yearly maintenance and if repairs are made at the first sign of a problem. Beyond this point, a furnace can start becoming more expensive and less effective.
AC systems and heat pumps also last between 10-15 years in the best of cases.

A water heater can last about 10 years before it should be replaced. Tankless, or on-demand water heaters can last longer since they don’t have as much contact with the water.

Heat pumps use electricity to compress refrigerant, making it condense and evaporate in a cycle. When refrigerant evaporates, it draws heat into it, causing the space around it to become cooled. Then, when it condenses, it deposits that heat outdoors where it dissipates into the atmosphere.
A good rule of thumb is that homeowners should replace their air filter every 1-3 months. This ensures that it doesn’t get too clogged up.
