If you’re considering your home’s air conditioning options and possibly wanting to make a change in how you cool your home, you might have heard of ductless mini splits. In the process of considering your possible choices, it’s important to ask a lot of questions, and to keep in mind the particular needs of your home, your family, and the climate you live in. Our climate here in Florida is very different from that in other parts of the country. Will a mini split air conditioner work well here?
The air you breathe has major impacts on your health and well-being. And with the amount of time that people spend indoors—estimated at more than 90%—making sure your indoor air is of good quality is critical.
Different places have different air quality conditions. For example, in the dry and sandy southwest, dust is a major problem. In Florida’s climate, what are the most important things you can do to keep your indoor air as clean and healthy as possible? Here are some suggestions.
If your home doesn’t have ductwork, you may have felt like you were stuck with window AC units forever. And if your home does have ductwork and you’ve always used a traditional central air conditioning system, you might not know about your other options.
One of the best options is a ductless AC system or ductless heat pump. It works great in older homes that don’t have ducts, but it can be the best choice even if you’ve got ductwork. Why? Ductless systems can cut down dramatically on your energy use, and thus your electric bill. They do this in three ways. Here’s the scoop.
Are you less than thrilled with your current heating or cooling system? Would you like to spend less money on utilities? Does the idea of being more self-sufficient or energy-independent appeal to you? Perhaps you’d like to know more about the geothermal options that are available.
Geothermal heating and cooling systems have been in use for over a century, but many people don’t know much about them. We’d like to change that! Here’s some information that might help you determine if this type of system might be a good climate-control solution for your home.
There are a variety of benefits to having a heat pump. For one thing, they’re very energy-efficient, which is a benefit to both the environment and your wallet.
They can also be much quieter than traditional central AC units. But the thing that truly sets heat pumps apart is their ability to switch between heating your home and cooling it, simply reversing the flow of refrigerant to either carry heat into your home or carry it out.
If your heat pump was set to keep your home cozy during the winter, you’ve had to switch it back to cooling mode by this time of year. But what if you tried and it wouldn’t work? What if your heat pump just won’t cool your home, and is stuck in heating mode? This can happen on occasion and we can explain it to you.
If your home already had an AC system when you moved in, you may not have experienced AC installation in your home. And if it’s been a long time since you’ve been through the process, it might be helpful or reassuring to have a quick refresher on what to expect. Here in Florida, there’s an additional consideration that folks in Nebraska or New Jersey might not have to worry about.
We’ll give you a rundown of what will happen when your installers arrive to put in your new air conditioner, including Florida-specific tips.
It’s springtime! Maintenance of HVAC systems is a favorite topic of ours during the spring and fall. While we often talk about home heating and air conditioning systems, it’s absolutely critical not to forget commercial HVAC maintenance. There are a lot more people depending on the heating and cooling systems in a commercial building than in a home.
What is actually necessary in terms of maintenance for commercial HVAC systems? When and how often do they need service? Are there any special considerations to keep in mind? We’ll tell you all this and more.
Here it comes again! The season of air conditioning is upon us. Time to get your annual maintenance done! What’s that you say? You had it done last year? Why do you need to have maintenance performed again? Well, you don’t… if you want to deal with all the consequences of having a neglected air conditioner. What are those consequences, you ask? Let’s go over the unpleasant things you can look forward to if you don’t have air conditioner maintenance done every year.
If your HVAC system hasn’t been maintained in a while, you might be starting to worry. How often should you be having maintenance done? What exactly does maintenance entail? And will having your HVAC system maintained resolve those little issues that are causing you concern?
Here are the signs that it’s time for HVAC maintenance, the things you can do to help maintain your system yourself, and what to expect from the service.
As springtime arrives and summer gets closer and closer, folks in Florida expect to be relying on their air conditioners again pretty soon. And keeping your home at a reasonable temperature is definitely important. But did you know that there’s something else that might affect your home comfort just as much? High humidity in your home is a significant issue in Florida. There’s a specific level of humidity that people are most comfortable at, and we’d like to help you get your home to that level to make it as comfortable as possible.
