Frequently asked questions

 It’s recommended to schedule HVAC maintenance at least twice a year—once in the spring for your air conditioner and once in the fall for your furnace. Regular maintenance helps improve efficiency, prevent breakdowns, and extend the lifespan of your system.

Common signs that your AC unit needs repair include weak airflow, warm air blowing from vents, strange noises, frequent cycling, high humidity levels, and unusual odors. If you notice any of these issues, it’s best to schedule an inspection to prevent further damage.

Signs that you may need a furnace replacement include rising energy bills, uneven heating, frequent repairs, strange noises, excessive dust, and a furnace over 15–20 years old. If your system struggles to heat your home effectively, a new, energy-efficient model may be the best option.

A heat pump provides both heating and cooling by transferring heat, making it energy-efficient in mild climates. A furnace, on the other hand, generates heat using gas or electricity, making it ideal for colder regions.

First, check your thermostat settings, circuit breakers, and air filters. If the heater still doesn’t work, contact a professional HVAC technician for emergency repair services.

To improve airflow, clean or replace HVAC filters, ensure air vents are open and unobstructed, use ceiling fans, and schedule duct cleaning if airflow issues persist.

If your smoke detector is beeping, check if the battery needs replacement or if there is a dust buildup causing false alarms. If it still beeps after troubleshooting, consider replacing the detector.

A properly sized dehumidifier or humidifier will not significantly increase your energy bills. In fact, they can improve HVAC efficiency by reducing strain on heating and cooling systems, leading to potential energy savings.

Yes, a high-quality air purifier can reduce airborne allergens, bacteria, and pollutants, improving indoor air quality. Systems with HEPA filters, activated carbon, or UV-C technology are especially effective in removing contaminants.

UV lamps in air purifiers help eliminate bacteria, viruses, and mold spores by destroying airborne contaminants. They work alongside HVAC filters to improve indoor air quality and reduce allergens.

To lower HVAC energy costs, schedule regular maintenance, replace dirty air filters, install a programmable thermostat, and ensure your home has proper insulation and sealing to prevent energy loss.

Most carbon monoxide detectors should be replaced every 5 to 7 years. If your unit beeps intermittently or doesn’t respond when tested, it may be time for a replacement.

Symptoms of poor indoor air quality include excess dust, musty odors, allergy flare-ups, increased humidity, and visible mold growth. An air purifier or improved ventilation can help reduce airborne contaminants.

Replace standard air filters every 1 to 3 months, depending on factors like pets, allergies, and indoor air quality. HEPA filters may last 6 to 12 months before needing replacement.
