The Best Time to Buy Variable Speed HVAC Systems
If you’re looking to purchase an HVAC system such as an air conditioner or heat pump, you’ve likely come across the terms variable speed, two-stage, and single-stage. But what do they mean? In a nutshell, these terms are referring to the speed(s) at which your system can work to cool or heat your home. What is a Single-stage System? Single-stage, or single-speed, systems are the most basic systems. They have two settings: on or off. This means they operate at full capacity or not at all. These systems work at full speed to cool down your home, then shut off completely once the desired indoor temperature is reached. Because they frequently switch from on to off and only operate at 100% max speed, single-stage systems are less expensive upfront but usually the most expensive to operate. What is a Two-stage System? Two-stage, or two-speed, systems add more variety by offering a high and low setting. In most cases, the low stage operates around 65 percent capacity, while the high stage operates at 100 percent capacity. Compared to single-stage systems, the two-stage system offers a middle ground for temperature control. Because it’s not operating at high speed all the […]

Practical Tips to Best Take Good Care of Your Furnace
The furnace consumes about 45% of the energy used by the average American family. Having your furnace serviced regularly is crucial if you want it to function at its best. Several factors go into making the correct equipment and keeping it in good condition. The Best Ways to Take Care of Your Furnace In general, many people wait until a problem emerges before taking action. It doesn’t matter if you don’t use your equipment for weeks on end if you detect an issue when in regular use. Using this helpful checklist, you can keep up on the status of your furnace. 1. Replace or Clean Out Your Filter You can’t expect your furnace to function as efficiently with a blocked air filter. Depending on the state of your furnace, it is advised that you change your air filters every 30 to 90 days. 2. Keep the Blower Motor Working Correctly The blower motor drives the fan that circulates the furnace’s air. The blowers in most furnaces also supply air for the cooling system. After the heating element in the furnace has heated the air to the desired temperature, the motor pushes the hot air through the heat exchanger. Warm air […]

4 Tips to Stay Cozy this Winter
With evening temperatures dipping well below freezing, we are in prime territory for furnaces to fail. Here are four tips to keep you and your family as comfy as a cup of hot cocoa: 1) Make sure you have a fresh filter in place for proper air flow. Your furnace will already be working hard, so don’t stifle the airflow with a clogged filter. 2) Higher thermostat settings don’t lead to greater comfort in extremely cold weather. Keep your thermostat at a moderate temperature like 68-70 degrees. Bumping it higher only increases the workload on your system as it works to reach a temperature it may never hit, while driving your energy bills through the roof. 3) If you haven’t had a tune-up or professional maintenance in a while, now is the time. An inexpensive heating tune-up now can prevent a major repair down the road and extend the life of your system. You don’t want your furnace failing in the middle of the night. Hot tip: Get $40 off any maintenance plan when you call 770-271-7511 and mention this post. 4) For the ultimate peace of mind, consider our System Care Program and never pay for repairs again.

5 Fall Home Heating Tips
Happy First Day of Fall! Eleanor has 5 tips to keep it from being a ruff winter. 1) Change your filter every 60-90 days, or every 30 days if you have pets. A clogged filter makes your system work overtime, driving up energy bills. 2) Make sure you aren’t covering your home’s air vents and returns with furniture, rugs and drapes. Proper air flow prevents hot and cold spots in your home. 3) Take a walk around your home’s interior and exterior, looking for leaks and gaps around doors and windows that could be sealed or fixed. Don’t let the air you’re paying to heat escape your home! 4) Speaking of air escaping, when’s the last time your ductwork was inspected? According to the Department of Energy, an average of 30% of all heated and cooled area escapes into attics, crawlspaces and basements due to leaky ductwork. Yikes! Heating these spaces is literally throwing money away. 5) You wouldn’t let your car go a year without maintenance, and you shouldn’t let your HVAC system do the same. A Fall Tune-up is the easiest way to keep it in tip-top shape and avoid major repairs when temperatures plummet. Plus, you can […]

Your Homeowner Checklist for Fall Heating Season
Fall is officially here, and the beautiful weather signals much cooler temperatures right around the corner. Here are a few tips to make sure your home is ready for heating season. With families like yours spending more time at home than ever, be sure to take these precautions now before your system is competing with freezing temperatures later. 1. Change your air filter. You should swap your filters every 60 days, or every 30 days if you have pets who shed. A clean filter keeps air flowing effortlessly through your system, instead of a dirty filter clogging your system. 2. Turn your heating system on. Turn on your heating system and check your vents to make sure it’s blowing warm air. Remember, if it hasn’t been on in a while there might be a light burning smell. That’s typically just dust that settled in your system since it was last used. 3. Make sure the area around your furnace is clean. Lint and dust around your furnace can be a hazard. Plus, move any boxes, cleaning supplies or materials that could impede air flow or become hazardous. Keep 2 feet of clearance around the system for safety and easy access. […]
