Heat Repair Tips from HVAC Experts
Here are some heating tips to keep your HVAC system running at its best all winter long whether it’s mild or unseasonably cold and wet for Nashville.
Make sure your HVAC system thermostats are accurate: Thermostats should be maintained regularly with proper calibration. They should also be kept away from external heat sources (like fish tanks or ovens) to avoid getting a false reading and an inefficiently operating heating system.
Change your heating system filters: Check or change your HVAC air filters monthly. Dirty filters increase airflow resistance in your heating and air conditioning system and cause your system to work harder and less effectively all the while increasing your operating costs.
Reduce heat loss: If too much hot air escapes through unsealed windows, open doors, or poorly insulated spaces, your heater will work (or rather overwork) to compensate. Avoid this problem by installing insulation and sealing any cracks throughout your home to eliminate drafts.
Regular heating maintenance: We recommend annual regular heating system maintenance. Call Hoffmann Brothers Heating & Air Conditioning to schedule HVAC maintenance, and one of our technicians will diagnose any problems with your heating system.
