When homeowners think about heating and cooling efficiency, the first things that come to mind are thermostats, filters, or the age of their HVAC unit. But there’s a silent culprit lurking in the background that could be costing you hundreds of dollars a year and compromising the air you breathe: your ductwork. What’s the solution? Ductwork fabrication in Washington, DC.
As winter fades and the cherry blossoms begin to bloom, Washington, DC, residents eagerly welcome the arrival of spring. With warmer temperatures on the horizon, now is the perfect time to ensure your home is ready to keep you cool and comfortable in the months ahead. One of the best ways to prepare? Scheduling a professional air conditioning tune-up.
A ductless mini split with a heat pump is the perfect home climate solution for many people in our area. But if this would be a jump for you—if perhaps you’ve had window AC units, or a central system whose ductwork is now in poor condition—no doubt you have questions. One question we frequently hear is about how many air handlers one heat pump can support, and how many one home needs. Let’s consider.
As the winter creeps further and further along, and spring gets closer, you may be tempted to ignore minor heating problems. If it’s not a total breakdown, or something really alarming, maybe you can wait and have it repaired next fall? No! Delaying heating repairs is a terrible plan. Having your heating system repaired as promptly as possible can save you a lot of trouble. Here’s why.

Winter can be so lovely, but it can also be stressful, and that’s especially true if your heating system is getting on in years. The last thing you want is a heating system breakdown, which—of course—is most likely to happen during a particularly cold snap, when you need it most, and put the most pressure on it.
Heating system repairs should be done promptly, as soon as you notice a problem. That way, you won’t have a strained system ready to give out. But what if the heater that needs repair is pretty old? Should you have that repair done, or is it time to replace your heating system? Consider these factors.
When you think about how you stay warm in the winter, you’re probably thinking about your furnace. If you live in an old and drafty home, keeping the cold breezes out might cross your mind. But have you considered humidity? The level of humidity in your home can actually have some significant impacts on your heating system. And there’s something you can do about it.
Heating systems need maintenance! This can’t be emphasized enough. Routine service for your furnace will keep it running well, so your home is evenly warm and your utility bills don’t skyrocket. It will prevent the majority of repairs you would otherwise need. It will make it so your furnace can keep you cozy for many more years before it needs to be replaced!
But there’s an even more important reason for furnace maintenance. Your top priority in life is the safety and wellbeing of your family. That’s our top priority, too! Some furnace issues can lead to safety hazards. Having your furnace inspected and maintained will prevent these problems and keep your family safe. Here’s how.
To keep your heating system running, you can’t just have it serviced when something is wrong. For proper performance, you need to be proactive. Maintenance must be done every year. The amazing fact is that as long as you get that done, you can prevent 85% of the heating system repairs you would otherwise need! And there are other benefits, too.
You’ve certainly heard that maintenance is helpful. Maybe you’ve even heard that heating tune-ups can prevent expensive repairs. But do you know why? We’ll explain the details.
