Fall is a good time to work on home improvement projects that will make a difference during the winter. Winter can put some serious strain on the overall energy efficiency of your home, i.e. its home performance

Home performance is a way to describe how all parts of your home work together as a single system. You may not think of your home as a “system” or a “machine,” but it is a type of energy system. You see the energy use every month when you look at your bills.

How can you improve home performance for the fall? Do you even know where to begin? The last one is an easy question to answer: you begin with a professional energy audit. We perform energy audits in Monticello, GA and throughout our service area, and we can explain to you why energy audits are so beneficial, especially when done in the fall before the cold weather arrives.

Ways You Can Put Ductless Cooling and Heating to Work for Your Home

Monday, August 19th, 2024

Ductless systems have made major inroads into homes over the past few years. These variations on heat pumps allow for a home to enjoy cooling and heating in different rooms without requiring either space-consuming ductwork or inefficient and unattractive window ACs. 

A ductless system (also called a ductless mini split heat pump) works by having an outdoor unit connected to several small wall-mounted air handlers distributed around the house. Each air handler has its own refrigerant coil and blower fan to send heated or cooled air directly into the living space. Ductless systems have high energy efficiency, lead to better indoor air quality, and allow for zoned heating and cooling since only the air handlers in occupied rooms need to run.

Another major benefit is that ductless systems are flexible. You can put them to work in your home (even if you already have ducts) in a variety of ways. Here are several.

AC Water Leaks? Here’s Why It Might Be Happening

Monday, August 5th, 2024
air-conditioner-leaking

Your air conditioning system uses chemical refrigerant to cool the air: it absorbs heat from the air indoors and then transports it outdoors. At no point in the process does the AC use water to cool the air. (There’s a specific type of cooling system that uses water, an evaporative cooler, but they’re uncommon in this area.) 

So why would water start to leak out of your air conditioner? If you see water pooling around your AC, it’s definitely a problem you’ll need to address, probably with professional AC repair in Forsyth, GA. Below we’ll explain why there’s water in your AC and why it may begin to leak, creating potential problems.

Your AC Trips the Circuit Breaker—Here’s Why

Monday, July 8th, 2024

You may occasionally have to go to the circuit breaker panel in your home to reset a tripped breaker. Some appliances can create power surges that trip breakers, although this should never be something that happens regularly. 

Because your AC is one of the most powerful electrical appliances in your home (often the most powerful), it might trip the power breaker if it’s pushed for too long. However, if the AC is tripping the circuit breaker repeatedly, then it means something more serious is wrong. You may need to schedule air conditioning repair in Forsyth, GA. Below, we’ll look into why this might happen.

The Impact Ductwork Has on Cooling Your Home

Monday, June 24th, 2024
duct-cleaning-before-after

You may not think much about the ductwork in your home. After all, it’s hidden in the walls and in the attic, kept from sight so your house doesn’t look like an industrial warehouse. Because those ducts are rarely on your mind, it’s easy to imagine they’ll always be in good condition—and if they weren’t, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal, right?

We’re glad we got your attention with this post! Your ductwork is extremely important for your comfort, health, and budget. Poor ductwork can create many troubles, and well-maintained ducts eliminate many problems. Our technicians offer a range of duct services in Forsyth, GA, so we can explain to you the impact that your ducts have when it comes to summer cooling.

You Need to Regularly Change Your AC’s Air Filter

Monday, June 10th, 2024

If there’s one thing about air conditioning that we wish every homeowner knew, it’s that they need to regularly change the AC’s air filter. Of course, we’d love for our customers to know even more about how to properly care for their cooling systems, but keeping up with this single task can eliminate many troubles that can torture your AC and leave you with higher bills and lower comfort.

When we perform regular AC maintenance in Forsyth, GA, we always change the air filter. However, air conditioners need to have their filters changed more often than once a year, so the responsibility falls on you to take care of this job during the rest of the cooling season. It’s not difficult, but the difference it makes is substantial.
