  • What is the best temperature to keep my house at during the summer?

    During the summer, it is ideal to keep your residence at 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Our bodies feel most at ease one or two degrees below this temperature, according to studies. It is crucial to remember that your home should only be this temperature when you are inside. By maintaining your home's temperature a little higher throughout the day, you can significantly reduce your cooling expenses.

  • If I turn down my AC all the way will my house cool down faster?

    No, your house won't cool down much faster if you turn the air conditioner all the way down. It's a popular myth. Should you attempt this, your house may become extremely cold and your energy bill may increase.

    The purpose of air conditioning systems is to operate continuously until the ideal temperature is reached in your home. The unit will turn off when a temperature is achieved and won't turn back on unless the temperature has to be changed.

  • How often should I change my filters?

    It is advisable that you replace your air filters at the beginning of each new season. Your equipment will be working hard around this time, therefore we recommend changing your air filters around this time.

  • What factors affect air flow and increase the frequency of routine filter changes?

    As previously said, it is generally recommended to replace your air filters at the start of each season.


    But this can change depending on things like:

    • Health issues
    • The kind of air filter you employ
    • The house's air quality
    • If the home is inhabited by pets
    • The quantity of occupants in the house
    • If there is construction near your house
  • What is the best temperature to keep your thermostat at for winter months?

    70 degrees is the perfect temperature in the winter.
