You want your air conditioner to be as efficient as possible, right? Well, wonder if we told you that there is a way to do that! Yes, just by making the right upgrades, you’ll be able to save tons of money on your annual cooling and heating costs. What are we talking about? Why we are talking about zone control of course!
A zone control system allows homeowners to take ultimate control over their HVAC systems, increasing efficiency and lowering monthly spending costs. Don’t believe us? Keep reading below to find out more about how this system works and the benefits of installing one in your home!
When you hear the word geothermal, you probably think of heat. But did you know that geothermal heat pumps are capable of keeping your home cool all summer long? That’s right! Like all heat pumps, geothermal systems come equipped with a reversing valve, which allows for home heating and cooling! But still, how does this all work?
If you don’t already know what a ductless system is, you are about to! Ductless systems are pretty awesome–they’re efficient, effective, and becoming quite popular for their ability to provide year-round comfort with just the flip of a switch (but more on that later!)
With summer well on its way, you want to be sure that you have money to afford the things that you want to do, whether it be planning a beach vacation, going to an amusement park, or visiting the family for a barbeque. Of course, when temperatures skyrocket, you don’t want to end up sacrificing your savings for your comfort, and therefore, it is important to ensure that your air conditioner is working efficiently and effectively.
Spring has certainly sprung, which means that summer is well on its way. Of course, preparing for summer is more than just stocking up on sunscreen, opening up your pool, and locating the best ice cream shops in town. And as fun as those things are, it is also important to remember that preparing for summer means making sure your home is set up to be as comfortable and efficient as possible. So, if you are in the market for a new cooling system, you might do well to consider a heat pump.
How do ductless heat pumps cool homes, you ask? The short answer is: exceptionally well! The longer answer that you deserve, of course, follows in this blog post. It is true that ductless heat pumps are great air conditioning systems, but they’re so much more than that! Not to be mysterious, but we are going to get to that as well. First, let us just say that if you are thinking about investing in a new air conditioning system, then your ductless options should be carefully considered.
We will start this blog off by answering what is likely your first question right away—yes, this indicates that there is a problem with your air conditioning system. Air conditioners are designed to run in full and even cooling cycles. If your system is starting up, running only briefly, and then cycling back down, it is not working properly. It really is that simple. What is not so simple, though, is pinpointing the cause of this problem.
You already know that we are huge advocates for routine HVAC maintenance around here. You also know that we strongly urge homeowners to hire skilled, trained professionals to tune up their systems on an annual basis. The process is more complex than many people may realize, and the fact is that this type of maintenance is a job that only experienced technicians can really do right. That doesn’t mean that there is nothing that you can do for your system on your own, though.
Look, we get it. Your air conditioner started up, and it is cooling your home. You don’t really want to—nor do you have the time to—think much more about it than that. The fact of the matter is, however, that even potentially serious problems with your air conditioning system may take a while to really prove symptomatic. It is always best to give your air conditioner a little bit of extra attention before you wind up being caught off-guard by problems with your system.
