Heating and A/C
Building materials expand and contract from day to day. This can cause minor warping in wooden materials and cracking in drywall, stucco, concrete and mortar, especially during the first year. You can minimize these effects by maintaining a constant indoor temperature.
Reduce your operating costs by changing the filters monthly, or even more frequently in very dusty areas. Keep all vents and registers clean and free of dust, cobwebs and debris. Keep landscaping well away from outdoor units to allow a free flow of air.
Save energy by partly closing registers in rooms that aren't in use. Since hot air rises, in summer open upstairs registers completely and close them on the lower floors. When winter comes, reverse the process.
Check your system a month or so before a peak operating season. If you need service, let us know before seasonal demands are greatest.
