Helpful Hints: Here’s One Big Air Duct Tip

Monday, February 27th, 2023

Air ducts are a necessary part of heating and cooling. For many homes in our area, they’re responsible for transporting heat from the furnace to the rest of the house. The reason why we say “many homes” and not “all homes” is because ductless mini split systems don’t need to use air ducts. They provide heat from an air handler that’s mounted on the wall or ceiling. But these systems are not as common as furnaces, so it’s more likely that you’ll see air ducts in a home.

Here’s a question: how do you know if your basement is too cold for your air ducts or furnace? Sometimes, things can get so cold that a furnace basically freezes up and requires furnace repair in Cumberland County. Even in Greenwich, Hainesport, and Evesham, we all know how cold some days can get, so how do you make sure that your furnace stays warm in the coldest section of your house? Keep reading to find out!

3 Things to Know About Furnace Ducts

Monday, February 13th, 2023

Furnaces are “forced-air” heating systems, which means they heat the air in your home and force it through air ducts to reach the living spaces. This is different from a radiant heating system, which radiates heat from radiators, baseboard heaters, or lines running under floorboards. Forced-air heating systems are often more affordable and more common because of just how easy it is to heat the air in a home.

However, it’s important to remember if you’re a furnace owner in Greenwich, Hainesport, or Evesham, that forced-air heating relies on complex systems of air ducts in order to work properly. These involve ducts to transport air through the home, as well as a port exhaust duct system to transport fumes and other harmful contaminants out of your house so that you’re kept safe and secure.

So, let’s discuss how ducts might relate to furnace repair in Cumberland County, and three unique facts about your duct system.

Ambient Comfort’s Guide to Efficiency

Monday, July 18th, 2022

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.

In order to measure how effective your air conditioner is, or the condition it’s in, we need to talk about its efficiency. This blog is devoted to all things efficiency—what it is, why it’s important, and what you can do to improve your HVAC efficiency in Cumberland County.
