Centralized heating and air conditioning systems rely on a series of ducts to carry cool air to the various corners of your home. They do the same job in the winter when it comes to hot air from your furnace. They do their jobs well in most cases, and because they’re usually hidden behind the walls or in the attic, they don’t often suffer damage. When they do, however – or even when age and wear-and-tear create leaks or breaches – then it can be very hard to spot the damage.
Spotting a Breach or Leak in Your Ducts
July 3rd, 2017When Does Your Air Conditioner Need Replacing?
June 19th, 2017
It can be tough to know when your air conditioner needs to be replaced. Air conditioners are expensive and most people run them into the ground before removing an old one and putting a new one in its place. If you don’t think your system is going to make it until the fall, now is the time to act. Doing so allows you to enjoy the increased efficiency and other benefits of a new system, as well as eliminating any worries you may have about breakdowns in the heat of the summer.
Dehumidifiers Make Summer Easier to Handle
June 5th, 2017
Summers in Indiana are stiflingly hot, with temperatures routinely climbing towards triple digits and beyond. But worse than the heat is the high humidity: turning our homes into swamps and reducing everything to a muggy soggy mess. Air conditioners can deal with humidity by default, but they’re not set up to handle the problem the right way, which can add to monthly bills and increase strain on the system overall.
Signs Your Air Conditioner Needs Repairs
May 22nd, 2017
Spring is in full bloom, and chances are you’ve already run your air conditioner regularly this year. In a few weeks, you’ll need to run it every day to keep your home cool and comfortable. If there’s a problem with your system, now is the time to have it diagnosed and repaired, before the first real heat wave hits. Otherwise, you might experience an unexpected breakdown in the middle of the hottest day of summer, forcing you to scramble before your home turns into an oven.
Can Ductless Air Conditioning Benefit You?
May 8th, 2017
Most homes in the area rely on central air conditioning, a dependable form of technology that does its job quickly and efficiently. The air is cooled in a single unit and then evenly distributed through your house with a series of ducts. It works quite well, but it’s not the only system out there, and depending upon your needs, your home might do better with an alternative model. In particular, ductless air conditioning systems provide a number of benefits that central air doesn’t, though it depends as always on the specifics of your home. Let’s take a closer look at how ductless air conditioning works.

April 24th, 2017
When summer hits in our neck of the woods, we can feel it: not only with high temperatures, but with mugginess and humidity that can turn your home into a swamp. Your air conditioner will likely need to perform every day for hours on end, and by default that means you’ll likely be paying higher air conditioning bill in the summer than you do in the spring or the fall. That reality can often obscure the fact that you’re paying more than you should, however. By taking steps to improve your A/C’s performance this summer, you can take a bite out of those high bills without sacrificing a cool and comfortable home.
