If you haven’t been able to tell yet, the holiday season is right around the corner.

A New Thermostat Might Be a Great Upgrade for Your Home

November 22nd, 2021

Thermostats are a vital component of your HVAC system. They might seem like a small piece of a much larger puzzle, but the function they perform is way more important than homeowners might think. We often say that the thermostat is the “brain” of your HVAC system, because its responsibility is to interpret the information you input and instruct the HVAC system to perform appropriately.

So, today we’d like to evaluate which homes might be perfect for a thermostat upgrade. We’ll talk about what these newer and more improved smart / Wi-Fi thermostats can do, why they’re so sought after these days, and why your home could benefit from having one. Once you think your home qualifies for this kind of work, you can call our team for fast and effective thermostat services in Sanford, FL. We’ll always get the job done the way you want it!

When Should You Get Your Compressor Repaired?

November 8th, 2021

For anyone out there who might be unfamiliar, the compressor is the central most important component of your air conditioner. While yes, many components are important to the cooling process, the compressor represents the heart of your AC unit and the component responsible for actually cooling the air in your home. Without this vital part, your air conditioner would just be one oversized fan!

Today, we’d like to talk a bit more about a question that homeowners often ask us. If you run into a problem with your air conditioner and it turns out that you need expensive AC repairs in Sanford, FL made on the compressor, is it worth it? Or should you just get your whole system replaced for the best long-term investment?

We appreciate how you’re thinking about this! But the answer might depend on a lot of different factors, and we’ll be getting into each of these down below.

It’s Time to Switch From Cooling to Heating Mode

October 25th, 2021

We know that it’s not really heating season yet, but those chilly temperatures will creep up on us faster than a villain in a horror movie! For homeowners with heat pumps, this transition can be quick and easy from cooling to heating, but the only problem is that it has to be done manually. A heat pump isn’t going to know when it’s time to heat your home for the rest of the year, and it’s definitely not going to tell you when it’s supposed to switch. Homeowners need to know when to switch from cooling mode to heating mode, and today we’ll give you details on how.

Don’t forget that this could be the perfect opportunity to invest in heat pump repairs in Sanford, FL. If you notice that your heat pump isn’t switching from cooling mode to heating mode properly, then there might be room for improvement. Our team can help you with fast and reliable repairs—just call us!

Investing in the Most Energy-Efficient AC

October 11th, 2021

We see this sentiment a lot. Homeowners care about their budget more than anything else, so they want an air conditioner that’s going to keep energy bills low and their homes comfortable. So that begs the question—what’s the most energy-efficient air conditioner on the market?

Well, hold your horses. AC system installations in Altamonte Springs, FL aren’t that simple. If there was one high-efficiency air conditioner then homeowners would always just choose that one. The truth is that more high-tech, high-efficiency air conditioners cost more to install and might not even fit in your home correctly. Different homes and budgets call for different systems, and the truth is that you might get energy efficiency from a standard central air conditioner.

With all that considered, let’s talk about the most energy-efficient systems on the market. We’ll get to the bottom of which system we think is right for your home.

Our End of Summer AC Replacement Guide

September 27th, 2021

There are a lot of costs that go into owning a home. Not even considering the costs of living in general, there are probably many aspects of your house that you’d like to have replaced or repaired. There’s the basement you’re trying to finish, the kitchen you desperately need to remodel, and perhaps the windows need to be replaced. Nobody has the budget to pay for everything all at once, which is why it’s important to prioritize the necessary expenditures from the ones that can wait.

However, when it comes to AC system replacement in Lake Mary, FL, this might be a more important priority than you think. Our spring, summer, and fall seasons are very hot, and they come every single year, right on schedule. Without having a powerful air conditioner to combat these temperature fluctuations, you might be very uncomfortable and unhappy. So, perhaps it’s time to consider replacing your old system!
