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.
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.
Have you ever seen those signs at a bus station or train station that say “if you see something, say something?” Well, the same concept could be applied to your home heating system. Unless you’re perfectly happy with the heat that your heater provides, the heating bills you pay, and the quiet nature of the system, you might have a problem that needs to be fixed. Simply put, if you notice something wrong or uncomfortable with your heating system, tell us!
Air purification is an interesting process. There are different air purifiers on the market that clean your air in different ways, but one stands out above the rest. That’s a UV air purifier. UV stands for an ultraviolet light air purifier, and it’s a system that basically uses low-frequency UV light to kill microorganisms before they have a chance to harm you. That’s right, this includes viruses, bacteria, mold spores, and any other single-celled organisms that could potentially make you sick or uncomfortable.
