Most people spend 90 percent of their day indoors, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency. Investing in your home makes sense.
Just so you are aware, the worst-case scenario is a faulty furnace secondary heat exchanger, but it is only for high-efficiency furnaces.
Are you anticipating a higher heating bill this winter? Here in Southern Pines, temperatures can get pretty low. The only way to ensure you remain perfectly comfortable inside your North Carolina home is by cranking up the heat.
Happy New Year! Now let’s reduce your energy bill. Heating and cooling are the two biggest culprits. The average household in the United States spends about $1,400 a year on energy bills, according to Move.org, with nearly half of that amount going to heating and cooling. Control these two costs, and you will save money.
You could save up to 30 percent on your energy bill when you perform maintenance that support ideal system efficiency, according to the IAQA.
A furnace is a major investment for any Southern Pines homeowner. Although it’s not something that will need to be done frequently, most people will face the decision of needing to purchase a new heating system sometime during home ownership.
Your air conditioner lives in your home full time—why not get acquainted with it?
If your thermostat wall does not have a c-wire, or common wire, your thermostat is most likely not hooked up to your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system for its power and requires batteries. When your screen is blank, it could indicate you need to replace the batteries.
The average furnace lasts between 10 and 15 years. But did you know you can take steps to make it last longer? There is no shortcut or hack to increase your furnace’s longevity.
Your comfort and indoor air quality (IAQ) depend on a well-maintained heating and cooling system. Remember to change the air filter on your furnace, air conditioner (AC), or heat pump at least every 90 days. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), an AC with a clean filter uses as much as 15 percent less energy than an AC with a dirty one.
