Winter HVAC Prep Checklist

Monday, November 6th, 2023

People prepare for the winter season differently. Perhaps you and your family take the time to set up decorations and shoot photos for a card that you send out to your friends and family. Or maybe you take the time to bundle up and watch your favorite movies and TV shows. That’s the beauty of the winter, the cold outside makes the warm and cozy inside of your home seem that much more enticing.

But many homeowners don’t exactly have a plan to prepare their HVAC systems for the winter. Your heater is one of the important things you rely on in order to live your life comfortable. If something were to happen to your heating system, or if your heating bills were to increase, it might affect your home comfort and your winter traditions. We can’t let that happen!

Is a Radiant Heating System Right for Me?

Monday, October 23rd, 2023

There are two main types of heating systems that we service in the Haddon Heights, Tavistock, and Cherry Hill areas: forced air and radiant.

Forced-air heating systems are the most common but not always the best choice for homeowners. These include things like furnaces, heat pumps, and anything that actually heats the air inside of a house. Radiant heating systems are different, focusing on using either electrical lines or hot water to radiate heat through the walls and floors of a home, heating objects in space as well as the air.

Radiant heating is a great type of heating that’s still used today, but in order to figure out if it’s right for you and your home, we’ll need to go over some things. Our team can get you set up with radiant heating service in Camden County, NJ if that’s the right choice for you and your family.

4 Ways a Ductless System Can Help With Efficiency

Monday, March 13th, 2023

Yes, ductless HVAC systems are efficient … but how efficient are they?

This is a question we get all the time and it’s hard to answer it with numbers. Every model of ductless mini split is going to differ, and every home is going to have a different level of energy efficiency. For instance, a home with the door left wide open all year is going to be much less efficient than one that’s tightly insulated. We can’t really control that, and it might lead to a homeowner getting frustrated after being promised that their ductless system was efficient.

What we can do is point to the ways that a ductless system improves efficiency in Logan, South Harrison, and East Greenwich. And, if they’re maximized properly (with insulation, mild thermostat settings, and more) then you can reduce your energy bill by a substantial amount.

Let’s get into it, and be sure to contact our team for ductless AC service in Gloucester County, NJ.

The Three Best Benefits of Radiant Heating

Monday, November 21st, 2022

The term radiance just sounds nice, doesn’t it? There are things that radiate joy, light, hope, and the term just tends to make us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. This isn’t a coincidence, the term “radiance” is also an old term in the HVAC industry for a specific type of heat that does almost the same thing!

Radiant heaters are a type of heating system that encompasses common units like boilers and electrical radiant heating systems. These types of heaters are very different from forced-air heaters like furnaces and heat pumps, specifically because they radiate through objects and people, causing ambient heat to warm you up instead of the air around you.

If you thought these heating systems were out of style, guess again! There are some excellent reasons to invest in radiant heating in Gloucester County, and we’re going to go over them today. Just be sure to call our team for support in Wenonah, Glassboro, and Swedesboro as well!

5 Benefits From a Home Humidifier

Monday, January 17th, 2022

Humidifiers are amazing systems. When we started to realize that dry air was becoming a problem in our homes, boiling a pot of water or purchasing a small, portable humidifier just wasn’t enough. Manufacturers started creating groundbreaking systems known as whole-home humidifiers that could actually add humidity to the entire space of a home. This made the process more effective and these systems were also more energy-efficient since they could distribute humidity better and utilized a home’s HVAC system.

However, we’re not in the business of convincing homeowners in Wenonah, Glassboro, or Swedesboro about purchasing humidifiers. Your home is your home, and we believe everyone should choose how they treat the air in their homes. Instead, we’d like to talk about how you might benefit from a home humidifier in Gloucester County, and why humidification technology could be a huge boon for your house.
