Have you ever wondered about what keeps heat inside your home in the winter, and outside in the summer? Aside from the air that’s blown in through your HVAC system, and the walls of your home, there has to be something else that helps, right? Something sits in your attic between you and the cold (or heat) of the outdoor air and keeps you safe, healthy, and comfortable. This is called attic insulation, and it’s what we’re here to talk about.
Attic insulation is absolutely vital for your home’s efficiency. We consider it a problem if homeowners don’t know how insulation works, because that can be an easy way to underestimate how valuable it is. Attic insulation in Gainesville, FL can be a great way to invest in the efficiency of your home. We’ll use some science to show you why!
Well, how is it? We’re not asking you rhetorically, we want you to truly think about the performance of your heater. It’s heating season here in Florida, and many homes are struggling to meet the demands of their owners. Heaters are chugging along as well as they can, and we want to let you know that we can help. We’re not just a team that’s dedicated to broken down heaters, but also to the ones that are struggling.
The outbreak of a pandemic this year has really pulled things into perspective. With COVID-19, we’re seeing just how easily something like a virus could spread, and it’s becoming more and more apparent how poor our indoor air quality is. It’s not anyone’s fault, least of all you, but something needs to be done about it. While tests and studies are still coming out about this virus in particular, other contaminants can be stopped in their tracks with 
We talk a lot about getting air conditioner maintenance on this blog. To give ourselves a little bit of credit, we do live in Florida, and air conditioners are run into the ground from all the heavy use if they aren’t maintained properly. AC maintenance is the first line of defense against costly repairs, issues of a shortened lifespan, and other problems that could be potentially devastating for your air conditioner and your wallet.
Let’s face it, we put a lot of strain on our air conditioners throughout the year. We marvel at the fact that our northern neighbors have air conditioners that are 20 years old, while ours can barely manage 15 with the sheer amount of cooling they’re tasked with doing. It’s so important that everyone in our area who has the luxury of utilizing an air conditioner’s warranty keep doing so for as long as possible.
How has your air conditioner been functioning this year? Regardless of how excited you are to finally give it a little rest for a few months, we do live in Florida, which means that those pesky repairs and inefficiency problems will come back a lot sooner than you think. Instead of ignoring those problems as we head into a mild winter, why not get them addressed?
It’s that time of year again! Another brutal summer has come and gone, and while we might still be dealing with a few hot days to come, the worst of it is over. So, how exactly did your air conditioner do? If you’re unsure as to how to answer that question, then don’t worry, we’ve got the solution for you. It’s time to give your air conditioner the grade it deserves!
Sure, we all know what condensation is, but not every homeowner knows what it has to do with air conditioning. Condensation is one of the key processes that your system’s refrigerant goes through in order to disperse heat outside of your home. Condensation is also what happens to the moisture in your air when temperatures drop and the water vapor turns back into liquid form. Basically, some air conditioners have an easier time dealing with condensation than others.
There are plenty of scenarios that can happen when you turn your heater on for the first time this season. It can come on without a hitch and act like it did last season, which is the best possible outcome. It can turn on with some minor problems that make you raise your eyebrow high. Or, it could not even turn on at all—signaling something sinister at the bottom of it.
Noises are everywhere. The hard part is figuring out which noises warrant a call to a professional HVAC provider and which ones don’t. Wouldn’t it be nice if you had some sort of blog post that could outline what noises are worth calling for help about, and which ones weren’t? Luckily, that’s exactly what we’re aiming to provide for you today.
