How do I decide when to replace my home HVAC system rather than repair it?

The age of equipment, efficiency, and repair costs are all factors in this decision. The average life of a traditional split system is 10-13 years. As a system gets older it may not be worth the cost of larger repairs. For example, a new compressor or large coil leak can be costly. This is especially true if it is out of warranty. That is when we suggest getting a quote for a new system and weighing your options. We are here to answer all questions our customers may have about repair versus replacement.

How can I improve my indoor air quality?

The easiest way to improve indoor air quality is to change your air filters on a regular basis. We recommend changing air filters every 30 - 45 days and have routine maintenance performed on your system twice a year. Other product options include media cabinets, duct cleaning, and UV lights. Media cabinets are a great way to reduce airborne particles, an electronic media cabinet will go even further by deactivating and filtering even smaller airborne particles. UV PCO lights use UV-C rays on a titanium dioxide coating to destroy airborne germs, bacteria, viruses, and VOC’s.
