Insulation is an essential part of home performance, i.e. how well your home works as a complete energy system. If you live in a house with poor insulation, it will lose heat quickly in the winter and gain it rapidly in the summer. This translates into poor comfort indoors and a need to run your HVAC system more often to stay either cool or warm.

We offer insulation service in Vidalia, GA to help ensure you have a house with the right heat sealing to enjoy better comfort and lower energy costs. In this post, we’re going to give you a short guide to how insulation is rated because you can’t just have any insulation put in the walls or the attic of your home and expect good results. Follow below and we’ll explain:

Watch for Signs of a Heat Pumps That’s Too Old

Monday, October 14th, 2024

You can expect to get a good service life from your heat pump if you remember to have it regularly maintained and always call promptly for repairs whenever the unit needs them. (Important reminder: because heat pumps work around the year, they need two maintenance visits per year.)

However, any heat pump has a limited service life, usually from 10-15 years. When a heat pump becomes too old, no amount of regular maintenance or repairs will be able to turn it around and restore it to its original condition. It’s possible to force a heat pump to work for several years longer if you keep having it repaired, but this is costly and the heat pump will perform at much lower effectiveness while causing your utility bills to spike.

Why You Need Specialists for Server Room Cooling

Monday, September 2nd, 2024

For many businesses, the central hub of information and communication is the server room. This is a dedicated space where computer servers and related hardware are housed and managed. Because these servers store, process, and manage data and applications, they need special protection from damage. If this equipment overheats and fails, it can mean the catastrophic loss of the basic digital infrastructure of your business.

Preventing a server room from overheating isn’t as simple as propping open the door or putting a standing fan inside. The standard air conditioning system in a facility won’t do the job either. You need to have commercial cooling specialists handle installation, repairs, and maintenance for a server room cooling system. We’re experts when it comes to server room cooling in Dublin, GA, and below we’d like to explain why this job requires expert technicians.

What Parts Make a Heat Pump Different From an AC?

Monday, July 8th, 2024

Making the change from using a standard central air conditioning system to a heat pump isn’t difficult. Heat pumps operate in a similar way to air conditioners and contain most of the same components to do the job. It’s not difficult for installers to remove a standard AC and put a heat pump in its place. Externally, they look similar, so most non-experts can’t tell them apart.

Of course, they do have differences, because the heat pump can do what the AC cannot—work in heating mode as well as cooling mode. Because we have extensive experience with heat pump installation and heat pump repair in Glenwood, GA, we know all about the components of a heat pump that allow it to do these two jobs. We’re going to list the most important of these parts below to help you get a better sense of what your heat pump does—or what you’ll want from the heat pump you’re planning to install.
