Just like your lungs are an important connection to the rest of your respiratory system, your home’s ductwork, or air ducts, are importantly connected to your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system.
They’re called ductless mini splits because they don’t require ductwork and consist of two main components—a compact indoor air handler and an outdoor compressor—connected by refrigerant lines. This “split” design allows for efficient, targeted heating and cooling in specific areas.
As summer approaches in Germantown, most residents are all looking to save some pennies wherever possible. So why not start with your costly energy bill? After all, the US Department of Energy says air conditioning can account for 35 to 40 percent of your utility bill.
The sound of a well-maintained heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is like a lullaby for a good night’s sleep.
According to the U.S. DOE, a simple task such as changing the air filter on your HVAC system can improve efficiency by up to 15 percent.
The same goes for a heat pump. The outdoor unit might be in perfect working condition. Still, the heating and cooling process stops without an indoor evaporator coil, connecting refrigerant lines, and a fan to blow conditioned air through ductwork.
As the temperatures begin to rise in Mequon, many homeowners are firing up their air conditioners for the first time in months. But what if, instead of a refreshing blast of cool air, you’re hit with an unpleasant smell?
From replacing air filters to scheduling maintenance, cleaning your cooling system can prevent breakdowns and keep your home comfortable.
It’s a hot day outdoors, and you are inside your Sussex home waiting for your air conditioning (AC) system to kick into full gear.
You could save up to 30 percent on your energy bill when you perform maintenance that support ideal system efficiency, according to the IAQA.
