Planned maintenance is important

We recommend that you have your air conditioning and heating comfort systems serviced twice annually to maintain peak performance. In the same manner as you maintain your automobile to increase its longevity, striving for HVAC efficiency will pay you back through peak comfort and lower utility bills for years to come!

Get to know the air around you!

There’s more in the air than you can easily see—particles, dust and smoke, all of them potential triggers for asthma and allergy attacks. Particles like dust, smoke and bacteria are often .3 microns or less. At that size, allergens can get deep into your lungs because they aren’t filtered well by your nose and throat.

Cooling system tips

Set the thermostat as high as comfort will permit.
Make sure attics are adequately ventilated to relieve heat buildup. If necessary, improve airflow by adding or enlarging vents.
When building a new house or renovating an old one, choose light-colored roof shingles to reflect more of the sun's heat.
During moderate weather, don't use the air conditioner unnecessarily.
Draw blinds or drapes to block the sunlight during the hottest part of the day.
Install awnings over windows exposed to direct sunlight.
