The ductwork in your home cooling system provides a two-directional pathway for air to flow into and out of your forced-air heat pump or air conditioner. The supply ductwork carries the conditioned air that enters your living spaces and cools the interior of your home. The return ductwork carries warm air back to your cooling system where it is filtered, cooled and sent back into your home again. Read More

When you choose a programmable thermostat for your heating and cooling system, you give yourself more control options than you can get with a traditional mercury switch model. Programmable thermostats let you choose all aspects of HVAC unit function, from the temperature settings to when and how long the unit runs. You can also see substantial savings on your utility bills when you use a programmable thermostat—up to 33 percent savings on heating expenses and about 25 percent on cooling.
In most American homes, water heating accounts for a major portion of monthly energy expenditures. As much as 25 percent of your regular utility bill is consumed by water-heating costs. It makes sense; without hot water, our health and sanitation would be at risk.
Before starting your air conditioner for the year, it’s a good idea to schedule a preventive maintenance check by a professional HVAC technician. While your HVAC expert concentrates on technical matters, you can take on some spring maintenance tasks of your own. By tending to your air conditioner early, you’ll help keep the system running like it should and functioning when you need it most.
A furnace failure can be a major inconvenience, but if it happens near the end of heating season, it’s possible to turn the significant aggravation of a furnace replacement to your advantage. If the furnace fails near enough to springtime that you can do without it or compensate for its absence, you can likely save money on your purchase and end up with a much better heating system than if you’d been forced to replace the unit in the middle of winter.
