Below, they answer some of the most frequently asked HVAC questions:    

Should I ‘Zone’ My Home? 

Zoning lets you control air and heating flow in specific areas of your home. This can save you a fortune on yearly energy costs. It can also save you a ton of hassle if your family just can’t agree on temperature settings.

Should I Choose an Energy Star® System? 

Heating and cooling your home is an expensive prospect no matter where you live. Certified, Energy Star systems have been proven to reduce energy bills by as much as 50%. Installing one in your home may also qualify you for a $500 tax credit.

How Often Should I Change the Air Filter? 

The answer to this question varies on how much you run your system. Most HVAC contractors recommend checking your filter at least once a month and changing it as needed.

How Often Should I Have My System Checked? 

While you will save yourself a bit of grief by changing the filter every month or so, you should still have your system checked by a professional at least twice a year (ahead of summer and ahead of winter). This will help to prevent seasonal breakdowns and pricey repairs.
