If you’re a business owner in Cherry Hill, Voorhees, or Haddonfield, then you probably know how important commercial AC can be during the summer. While fall might be quickly approaching, September and even October have their hot days, so we’re not entirely out of the woods yet. That’s why we want to talk about some great best practices for commercial HVAC owners that will improve the performance, efficiency, and longevity of their technology.
Most of the advice we give is less about what you can specifically do for your system, and more about how you can better hire a professional who is going to take care of you for a good price. Saving money isn’t about doing everything yourself, but rather finding the right people to work with who will do exceptional commercial air conditioning service in Camden County, NJ.
So, let’s discuss how you can help your commercial establishment stay comfortable this year.
Air conditioners are put under a lot of stress during the summertime. Especially when we start seeing days with record highs and humidity levels that feel like we’re all breathing water, it’s common for an AC system to overheat. If your air conditioner is overheating or regularly running into problems that cause it to shut down, we urge you to call our team to have your 
Ah, efficiency. It’s one of the most important aspects of air conditioning, heating, and indoor air quality. Ever since energy prices started to rise and we’ve dealt with the effects of climate change, it became clear that energy is going to cost us. Every time you switch on a TV, and every time you turn on a light in your home, that consumes a certain amount of electricity that’s going to cost money paid to the utility company. The more energy you use, the more you pay for the electricity. And, as things are today, an air conditioner consumes the largest amount of electricity of any appliance in homes throughout Greenwich, Hainesport, and even Evesham.
Temperatures are hot, and you’ve probably heard us say numerous times on this blog that the heat can be especially dangerous and uncomfortable for seniors. If that thought has ever been confusing or strange to any readers out there, we hear you and we’ve decided to write a specific blog on this topic. Seniors aren’t the only ones who can lose valuable quality of life during a heatwave, but they’re usually the first to have trouble. With some of these tips, we’d like people to be aware of things they can do to stop the heat and enjoy a cooler, more comfortable summer.
We’ve seen a fair amount of homes in our time with highly efficient and technologically advanced HVAC systems paired with old thermostats that might have been from the ’70s. While we’re not going to fault anyone for their aesthetic preferences (some of those old thermostats look pretty groovy!), we do think that it’s time that homeowners evaluated the importance of their thermostats. After all, a thermostat is a piece of technology that performs a vital function for a home!
We don’t want to be alarmist. For most homeowners, the signs are pretty obvious when something is wrong with an air conditioner, and getting them addressed by a professional is the first step toward successful temperature control. However, there are many people who don’t understand how their air conditioners work, and thus, how problems happen. This means that a grinding or hissing noise coming from an AC unit is more likely to be ignored because a homeowner just doesn’t know what that is!
Look, we know that hearing the word “might” is not the best thing for a homeowner. Wouldn’t it be easier to hear that your AC absolutely needs a tune-up? The problem with that is that every AC is different and you might have already gotten AC maintenance in the past few months, which means you don’t need one again. Or, you might have a heat pump, in which case you need maintenance twice a year instead of just once!
Have you recently invested in new technology that’s completely changed your perspective on things? Many of our customers tell us about their smart technology, like responsive Bluetooth speakers that can play any of their music by listening to their request, and they wish there were something like that for their HVAC system. Well, there is something like that for your HVAC system, and we’d like to talk about it today.
Springtime is a time when we start to think deeply about our indoor air quality. The level of contaminants in your home is going to directly impact how comfortable you are, and while temperatures are warming up, we have an opportunity to open the windows and vent things out a little bit. However, just opening a window isn’t really going to cut it this year.
Things aren’t as cut and dry as they might seem when it comes to air conditioning. Some air conditioners are completely broken down and require repair, others are working but not to the best of their ability, and some are in amazing shape. The lifespan and condition of an air conditioning system, just like your car or your home, is a spectrum that requires yearly attention and best practices to make the most of.
