I am very conscientious about upkeep for my furnace and air conditioner. I make sure to replace air filters every month, and I schedule professional maintenance every spring and fall. Because of my diligence, I was surprised when I had some complaints with the performance of the cooling system last summer. I first noticed that […]

Benefits of VRF technology
I’m able to make adjustments through an app on my smartphone I just recently learned about variable refrigerant flow or VRF technology for heating and cooling commercial properties. The reason I became interested in this type of system was because of the ability to customize temperature in multiple zones. Not only does the system allow […]
Fortunate to have a boiler for heating
I live in an area that is well-known for the long winters, severe cold and tremendous amount of annual snow accumulation. For us, the cold weather is an expensive and labor-intensive challenge. We need a heating system that can handle temperatures down to twenty-five below zero. The heater often operates for eight months, making energy […]
Air purifier works to improve indoor air quality
Because of the recent scare and lifestyle changes due to covid, my family is spending a lot more time at home. My husband and I are now working from home. The kids have finally gone back to school but only for three days per week. Rather than leave the house to run a bunch of […]
Happy with window air conditioners
The weather in my local area is cold and snowy for the majority of the year. We typically start up the furnace sometime in September. We keep the heater running until at least April. It’s not unusual for us to have a snowstorm on Easter Sunday. I’ve already needed to shovel snow out of the […]
Upgrading to a smart thermostat
My family leads a very hectic lifestyle. Between work, school, sports and our various activities, we lead a busy schedule. I am sometimes convinced we are away more than we are at home. The house is often left empty. I kept forgetting to adjust the thermostat before we left in the morning. I’d then pay […]
Snowmelt system is a huge improvement
One of the best upgrades we’ve made to our house is a snowmelt system. We are located in the northeastern area of the country, right near one of the Great Lakes. Because the water of the lake takes a long time to freeze, the clouds passing overhead absorb a lot of moisture. They become heavy […]
High velocity heating and cooling is a whole-home solution
My husband and I are the owners of a historical home. Because of the age of the structure, it is not equipped with conventional ductwork. Due to the nature of architecture, we aren’t able to install a duct system. For several years we were stuck with noisy window air conditioners and ineffective baseboard heaters. These […]
My boyfriend likes it cold
My boyfriend drives me out of the house with his HVAC settings. I swear he is a menopausal woman secretly. He always wants the AC on. I sort of dread summer because that means the cooling system is pumping 24/7. I get sick of being cold in the house. I frequently wear pants and a […]
I miss my temperature controlled sunroom
My old house had what is called a sunroom. It was an extra room added onto the back of the house with lots of windows. It had a great view of the gardens and it was sort of like being outside, and yet not. I got the benefits of having AC in the summer and […]
