What System Do I Need?

Both furnaces and central air conditioners are sized using specific formulas. Bigger isn’t better with an HVAC system. An oversized unit will cause short cycling, which is when your unit turns on for a short period and then turns back off. Continued short cycling can damage your brand-new system. Obviously, a unit that’s too small may not provide the warm or cool air you want. Work with a professional to receive the optimal AC or furnace size for your specific home.

How Can I Improve My Indoor Air Quality?

Whether you have allergies, asthma or are spending much of your time in your home, indoor air quality is an important feature. Ask your local technician in Sonoma and Marin counties about installing a HEPA air filter or a whole-home filtration system to improve your indoor air quality. A quality HVAC system doesn’t just provide hot and cold air, but filters and purifies your air while it operates. A powerful filtration system catches dander, pollen, dirt and other indoor air contaminants, with helps you and your family to enjoy fresher, cleaner air.

Should I Repair or Replace My System?

A repair service is typically more affordable than a full replacement unit, so many homeowners prefer to repair their existing furnace or air conditioner. In some cases, repairing your air conditioner or furnace is an efficient option. However, there are some reasons why you should consider updating your unit instead of replacing it:

• It’s over 15 years old
• You aren’t happy with your indoor air quality
• Your utility bills are too high
• Your indoor temperature isn’t comfortable

A new system can solve these issues. Most air conditioners only last between 15 and 20 years, so it may be time to invest in a new system. This investment allows you to enjoy affordable monthly heating and cooling bills and improve your indoor air quality. Work with a local HVAC technician to compare the pros and cons of repairing or replacing your system to find the best solution for your home.
