FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Schedule maintenance at least once per year, though twice annually is ideal. Spring for AC and Fall for heating. Maintenance includes cleaning coils and filters, checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical connections, inspecting heat exchangers, and verifying safe operation. Regular tune-ups prevent breakdowns, lower energy bills by up to 30%, extend equipment lifespan, and maintain warranty coverage.
Smart thermostats save 8-20% annually on energy costs and typically pay for themselves within 1-2 years. They learn your schedule, offer remote smartphone control, adjust automatically when you leave or return home, provide energy usage reports, and integrate with voice assistants. These devices maintain consistent temperatures efficiently and send maintenance reminders when filters need changing.
Replace systems over 10-15 years old needing major repairs like compressor or heat exchanger replacement. If repair costs exceed 50% of replacement value, new equipment usually makes better financial sense. Repair newer systems with minor issues or single-component failures.
