Having your old air conditioner replaced is quite the process. First, you have to determine that it’s not worth repairing any longer. Then, you have to decide what sort of system to replace it with and select the specific model. Finally, you must make an appointment to have that system professionally installed.

Done all that? Great! But you’re not finished yet.

The appointment itself can be a bit of a mystery to homeowners who haven’t been through it before, or to folks whose last experience with AC installation was twelve or more years ago. What should you expect? How long will it take? And what can you do to prepare your home for your air conditioning installation? We’ll tell you everything.

HVAC Frequently Asked Questions Answered on Friday

Friday, November 11th, 2016

We thought we’d start a standard blog that comes up every Friday (something like Taco Tuesday’s but not as delicious!)  HVAC Frequently Asked Questions on Friday

Today’s frequently asked question is:  How often should I change my HVAC filter?

This answer varies according to certain conditions:

Your HVAC system can't breathe thru a clogged filter.

Your HVAC system can’t breathe thru a clogged filter.

  1. You have a air quality filter (usually a 4″ or 5″ width filter) should be changed once a year.
  2. You have a standard 1″ filter, no pets, no remodeling being done and it’s not high pollen season – once every 3 months.  If you are on our Club, this means you change it 3 months after we’ve done your twice annual service!
  3. You have a standard 1″ filter with pets, have remodeling going on or it’s high pollen season – it can be as often as once a month!  Sometimes, more often especially when you are having your floors redone!  The sawdust can really clog up your filter! The pollen can do the same as the sawdust.  We really recommend you checking the filter at least once a month during these circumstances!

We hope this answered this frequently asked question!  We’ll have another frequently asked question for you next week!

Filter Air Flow Importance – HVAC Filters

Wednesday, October 26th, 2016

David took pictures to show you the importance of air flow arrows going correctly into the slot.

When the air flow isn’t correct the filter pulls apart and can be sucked into the blower motor and cause damage.
So the arrows are important 😀img_8076 img_8077

5 Tips for Fall Cleanup for Heating and Air Conditioning – Gwinnett

Thursday, September 22nd, 2016

We know it’s fall!!! It’s pumpkin flavored everything! And there’s nothing wrong with that.

It’s been a long, hot summer and becoming a long, hot fall, too! But now is the time to make sure the bugs and rodents don’t destroy your heating and cooling systems.

1. If you have a pesticide company, make sure they are spraying by (not on) your air conditioner outside and your furnace inside. We get a lot of bugs in air conditioners this time of the year.

Time to spray!

Time to spray!

2. In the winter, we get no heat calls and find rodents have chewed the wires on furnaces. They are looking to stay warm for the winter months and are migrating inside.

3. Also, clean out your fireplace flue! Birds might have nested in there! You don’t want to have a house fire due to birds.

4. Clean out your dryer vent. There is a brush specially made to go into a dryer vent and bring out the lent that has built up.

5. Change your batteries in your thermostat, carbon monoxide and fire detectors. If your furnace is over 10 years, have it checked for carbon monoxide leakage! We have a special camera that we put into your furnace to see any issues you may be having.

And, if you aren’t on a regular schedule, change your furnace filters!  It’s quick and easy.  David covered it in a video if you’re interested.  Look at our past posts!

Repeat Blog but Very Pertinent!!! Energy Saving Tips

Thursday, June 18th, 2015

Summer time is here full BLAST!!! Farmer’s Almanac says it’s going to be hot and HUMID!!

Here’s some tips to help with the higher electric bills:

1. Change your AC filters!
2. Set your thermostat at 78 (some times lower with the higher humidity!)
3. Have your AC unit serviced by a licensed contractor! Did we mention we’re licensed and insured?
4. Use your ceiling fans!
5. Close your blinds, curtains or any other window covering during the day!
6. Reduce your pool filter operation to 4-5 hours a day and at off peak hours!
7. Fill up your fridge – it takes a full fridge longer to lose it’s coolness when the door is open than an empty one!
8. Use your dishwasher – this uses less water than when you hand wash.
9. Cook with your microwave more! It uses 2/3 less energy than your stove!
