TIPS TO MINIMIZE STRAIN ON YOUR HVAC SYSTEM THIS SUMMER


Saskatchewan summer is around the corner, and having a well-functioning HVAC system to keep your home cool is essential. Here are some tips to minimize strain and help keep your system running efficiently all summer long.


Leave The AC On Even When You Are Not Home

It is often thought that turning off your AC when you leave your home can save you money. However, this is not the case. Turning off your AC will only cause the unit to have to work harder to achieve the set temperature once it is turned on again. In addition, turning off your AC will increase humidity, creating condensation issues. 

Programmable thermostats regulate the temperature of your home while you are away. All you have to do is set them so that the temperature is higher during the hours you will be away, and lower for the hours you will be home. Programmable thermostats help minimize strain on your HVAC system and save you money.

Ensure Windows And Doors Remain Shut

When windows and doors are left open, hot air is able to enter the home. Allowing this hot air in will create more work for your HVAC unit that is already working overtime. Not to mention, open windows and doors allow for pollutants and allergens to enter the home easily which does not foster a healthy environment.

Change Filters Regularly To Ensure Cleanliness

When air filters are dirty, less air is able to flow through. As a result, your system must work harder to cool the home. When airflow is restricted by a dirty filter, less air passes through the evaporator coil. This puts your system at risk for the coil to freeze as there is less heat for the coil to absorb. 

Do Not Shut Too Many Registers

Since the duct system in your home is designed to circulate air at a certain pressure, it is very important the registers remain open. Shutting registers means the system has to work harder, it does not reduce the amount of air the system is creating. Shutting registers will overwork your HVAC system, which will not prolong its longevity.

Ensure Annual Maintenance Is Complete

Remember that you are not always the expert when it comes to your HVAC system, and you don’t need to be! Calling a professional for your regular maintenance will ensure all system components are clean, and that the system is in good working order for the summer months. 

These are a few tips to minimize strain on your HVAC system to help keep your home cool. Following these tips will ensure you and your family stay comfortable this summer.

PROBLEM WITH YOUR HVAC? WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU CALL GIBBON HEATING 


What to Know Before You Call About Your HVAC in Saskatoon

Educating yourself on your HVAC equipment prior to placing a phone call will be very helpful to the technician that will visit your home. When you call for service on your HVAC in Saskatoon, the professional on the other end will ask you several questions. By being able to answer these questions, you can - in most cases - save yourself money by having fewer house calls with the technician having the tools to diagnose the problem sooner.

HVAC Information to Know: Brand, Age, Error Code

For example, your HVAC is not providing heat. You decide to call a service provider that you trust, such as Gibbon Heating & Air Conditioning in Saskatoon. One of our professionals will answer and ask you what brand of HVAC equipment you have and how old it is. Depending on the age you provide, they may ask you what error codes are showing on the equipment.  

By answering these few questions asked, you are providing the technician with important information to address the problem with your HVAC unit. When a customer cannot answer these issues while on the call, the service provider is essentially sending a technician to your house blind and unaware of where the issue is coming from.

Why Is This Important to Know About Your HVAC?

When the technician knows that the customer has, for example, a Bryant furnace that is 6 years old, providing an error code of 31, this tells them that there is an issue with the control board.

Once the technician is on-site, that is the first thing they will look at. If they did not know this information, they would have to perform a full system check on the HVAC unit to find out where the issues are. A technician’s time costs money. It is important to keep in mind that there is no way for ANY service provider to have all the necessary parts for every piece of HVAC equipment out there. 

At Gibbon Heating & Air Conditioning, we will address your problems with your HVAC in Saskatoon professionally. Contact Gibbon with any questions or concerns regarding your HVAC unit.
