Why Does a Heat Pump Need Bi-Annual Maintenance?

Monday, September 28th, 2015

It’s amazing (and for some, probably sad) to realize that the Fall Equinox just passed and we’ve officially passed into the next season. If you own a heat pump system, you know how easy and convenient it is to switch from cooling to heating, and that’s exactly where our weather is right now: warm during the day, cool and crisp at night.

Just as getting sand in your smart phone can cause you endless problems, dirt and dust can have the same effect on your whole home AC. The problems may not be apparent at first, but if dust and dirt are left to accumulate on your system, you will start to see the effects, and they won’t be positive ones.

Do You Need to Consider AC Replacement for Next Year?

Tuesday, September 1st, 2015

It’s not something most homeowners want to think about because it’s a big decision and an expensive proposition: replacing your whole home air conditioning system. It can be an even harder decision when your AC is still operating – but one of the questions to ask yourself is: how well is your existing air conditioner operating?
