Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend having your HVAC system professionally serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps improve energy efficiency, extend the life of your heating and cooling equipment, and prevent costly breakdowns.

The size of the HVAC system depends on various factors like your home’s square footage, insulation, and local climate. Our technicians can perform a detailed load calculation to ensure you get the right size for optimal heating and cooling efficiency.

On average, an HVAC system lasts between 12 and 15 years. With regular maintenance and proper care, you can extend the lifespan of your heating and air conditioning units.

A programmable thermostat allows you to control your HVAC system more efficiently by setting custom temperature schedules. This can help lower energy bills and reduce wear and tear on your heating and cooling equipment.

If your system is over 10 years old, requires frequent repairs, or is not cooling or heating your home evenly, it may be time to consider a replacement. Our team can help you assess whether repair or replacement is the most cost-effective solution.

SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) measures the efficiency of your air conditioning system. A higher SEER rating means better energy efficiency, which can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental footprint.

Unusual sounds, such as banging, rattling, or hissing, could indicate a problem with your HVAC system, like a loose part or airflow issues. It’s best to have a professional technician inspect it to prevent further damage.

A heat pump transfers heat from the air or ground to provide heating and cooling, while a furnace generates heat by burning fuel. Heat pumps are more energy-efficient in milder climates, while furnaces are more effective in colder regions.

Improving indoor air quality involves using air purifiers, replacing HVAC filters regularly, and adding humidifiers or dehumidifiers if necessary.

Replacing your HVAC filters regularly improves air quality and allows your system to run more efficiently. Clogged filters can damage your equipment (ex: causes system to freeze up which can damage your compressor)
