Prompt Repair for Reliable Heating
Many homeowners in our area have fuel-fired heating systems. A common issue with these is that grime builds up on the combustion components over time. A pilot light burning any color other than blue is a serious issue. Stop using your system, and alert us right away. Don’t ignore a pilot light that keeps going out, either. You may have to relight a pilot occasionally, but if you’re frequently relighting it, there could be a serious issue with the thermocouple.
On-time repairs are also important for cooling and IAQ systems. AC issues, such as with the condenser or evaporator coils, can drive up your electricity bill quickly. With malfunctioning IAQ equipment, you risk breathing the pollutants you’re trying to avoid.
Energy-Efficient Cooling Installations in Warwick
If you want to add air conditioning to a home, ductless AC is an exciting option. There are few installation requirements, which makes it a possibility for practically any residence. The lack of ducts makes the AC even more efficient. These systems are also inherently zoned. That means you’ll be paying for AC where and when you need it and not where and when you don’t.
Homeowners who need to replace a traditional AC and furnace pairing should consider a dual-fuel setup. Hybrid heat systems pair a heat pump, which runs on electricity, with a fuel-burning furnace. The heat pump provides you with cool air in addition to heated air most of the time. When it’s so cold that the heat pump would be inefficient, the furnace runs instead. These systems are costlier up-front but can save significant money over their life spans.
Seasonal HVAC Maintenance
There are many important reasons to schedule seasonal tune-ups. HVAC warranties usually require them as a condition of coverage. They make your system more efficient and cheaper to run. Tune-ups also help you avoid repairs in the middle of winter and summer.
Another reason is the air you breathe. Fuel-fired heat systems can release bad smells and particulate matter into the air. If there’s a malfunction, they can even cause carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. A dirty AC evaporator can cause unpleasant odors too. It can also foster biological growth that negatively impacts air quality and makes you sick. Seasonal maintenance is also an excellent time to replace the filter and activated carbon in your air purifier and the UV lamp in your ducts.
