It’s been a pretty hot and humid summer thus far. That’s unlikely to change much any time soon. And that means that your air conditioner needs to continue firing on all cylinders. The last thing that you want is for your system to break down on you right when you need it most.

Yes, air conditioners do break down. That’s a fact. Want to hear another fact? That usually doesn’t happen without any type of warning sign at all. The issue is that a lot of homeowners fail to recognize the warning signs that their air conditioners in Woodstock are giving them.
Today, that ends. (more…)

Heat pump technology is an outstanding way in which to heat one’s home with minimal energy consumption and the cost that comes along with it. As you may know, heat pumps do not burn a fuel source to generate heat. Instead, they use a refrigerant cycle to absorb heat from the air outside, compress the refrigerant, and then use its heat in order to warm the interior living space. The question that many have is whether or not this method of heating is sufficient in as cold a climate as Vermont.
Fortunately, the answer is yes — for the most part. Ductless mini splits do have their limitations and, as is the case with any heating system, they are not right for every home or for every homeowner. Consider the following information, though, and let us know if you have any questions. We install and service Mitsubishi and Fujitsu ductless mini splits in Woodstock, VT, and we can help you to get the best from yours if you decide to go this route.

Okay, we’ll admit that looking out the window doesn’t exactly bring summer heat to mind just yet. While we are still in the rather chilly hold of spring, however, it is important to remember that summer really is just around the corner. That means that you need to have your air conditioner ready for action once the warmer weather really does arrive. That means that you should really get your AC replacement out of the way if you are planning to have a new AC in place before temperatures begin to rise.
But when is an air conditioning replacement actually necessary? The only scenario in which an air conditioner absolutely must be replace, obviously, is one in which the system is broken down and cannot be repaired. That doesn’t mean that you should wait for such a scenario to present itself, though. In fact, you are much better served by replacing your air conditioning system before it breaks down entirely. Keep these tips in mind, and remember to schedule your AC replacement in Woodstock, VT with our team. (more…)
