1. Install Air Quality Systems
A home’s level of indoor air quality (IAQ) can either affect or improve the health of the individuals who inhabit the space. But achieving high-quality indoor air isn’t difficult with these HVAC system upgrades from Bloomington Heating & Ai
Dehumidifiers
Too much humidity in the air encourages unsightly and potentially dangerous growths (mold) and troublesome pests (dust mites) to thrive indoors. Humidity can also cause HVAC systems to work overtime to cool a home, decreasing the system’s functional lifespan. Residential dehumidifiers effectively condense the moisture in humid indoor air while saving homeowners money on utilities, reducing the need for heating repairs, and maintaining a comfortable and inviting environment.
Air Purifiers
Air purifiers, or air cleaners, work to remove smoke, pollen, animal dander, bacteria, mold spores, and other contaminants from indoor air, allowing you and loved ones to breathe easier. The home air cleaners offered by Bloomington Heating & Air feature high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters that trap dangerous airborne particles and prevent them from re-circulating in the air.
2. Boost Energy Efficiency
During high-use seasons, such as winter and summer, the utility bills can seem outrageous. With these energy efficiency tips from Bloomington Heating & Air, you can rest assured that you are maximizing the use of your unit while keeping your utility bill at a minimum.
Ductwork
Ductwork is an essential part of any HVAC system as it delivers cooled or heated air throughout the home. But over time, ductwork can become riddled with holes, cracks, and other impairments that prohibit proper function. Ductwork repair can both improve energy efficiency and reduce the need for furnace repair.
Weather Stripping
When air leaks develop in a home, heated and cooled air seep outdoors while outdoor air seeps in. Weather stripping remedies this by sealing air leak pockets with narrow pieces of vinyl, metal, rubber, or foam, among other materials, for a boost in your home’s level of energy efficiency.
3. Replace The Thermostat
Programmable thermostats are becoming standard in residences. Many homeowners find that switching out their manual thermostat for a programmable, or smart, thermostat benefits their homes, wallets, and comfort level. Smart thermostats offer automation, greater control, and increased accuracy over a home’s heating and cooling system. Our technicians are available to help you choose the best smart thermostat to suit your specific needs and preferences.
4. Join A Maintenance Plan
Along with installing indoor air quality systems, boosting energy efficiency, and replacing the thermostat; scheduling regular HVAC maintenance is another way to upgrade. Not only does a bi-annual professional tune-up save you money and boost your system’s energy efficiency, but HVAC maintenance is also the best way to prolong the life of any system.
