Is the Air Filter on My AC Enough for Good Air Quality?
Monday, June 20th, 2016We write often about the importance of the air filter in your HVAC system.

How Often to Change Your HVAC System’s Air Filter
Monday, June 13th, 2016This is a reminder that we cannot bring up often enough: you must change (or clean) the air filter in your HVAC system routinely during the year as part of regular maintenance.

What Is “Hard Starting” and Why Is It Bad for an Air Conditioner?
Monday, May 23rd, 2016“Hard starting” is a condition that can affect air conditioners (as well as other mechanical devices, such as cars) where the motors and the compressor responsible for operating the system have trouble coming on and staying on. If your air conditioner is hard starting, it will stutter as it attempts to turn on, and will then cycle-off soon after it comes to life.
