FAQ

• How can I do to make my HVAC more efficient?

  Replace and clean your filters often in order to boost the efficiency of your HVAC. Make sure the blower is ON – it ensures the constant air movement, helping the system cool or heat more evenly. Windows facing the south, or those exposed to direct sunlight most of the time, should be equipped with window treatments (drapes, shutters, blinds, screens).
  

• What maintenance can I do for my air conditioner?

  The most important maintenance that you can do is to change your filters regularly. Outdoor units that that are mounted to the ground should be clear of clutter and debris. Pets should be kept away from the unit because pet urine can cause costly damage to the unit. Also, be careful with a weed trimmer as you can damage control wiring. Only qualified staff should do any other maintenance on your air conditioner.
  

• What maintenance should I do on my air conditioner?

  The most important maintenance you can do is to change your filters regularly. Ground mounted outdoor units need to be kept clear of debris, clutter; weeds or landscaping that can grow too close and reduce the airflow to the unit. Also, keep pets away from the unit because pet urine can cause expensive damage. Use caution with a weed trimmer around the unit to prevent damaging control wiring. Any additional maintenance should only be performed by qualified personnel.
  

• Is HVAC with more capacity better?

  No. Larger system is more expensive to operate, and it delivers less comfort. A system is the least efficient when first turning on. HVAC with too much capacity will continuously turn on and off, proving to be less efficient than the HVAC of the right size for your space. It is important to remember that an air conditioner dehumidifies air only when it is on, thus the HVAC with more capacity will not perform the job very well.
  Should I close the registers and doors to areas I am not using?
  Every system is made to cool a defined number of square feet. If you close the registers and/or doors to certain rooms that you do not use, you disrupt the airflow, and your system will work harder to circulate air to those areas. It will use more energy to cool less space, making it less efficient.
