With cooler weather approaching, many homeowners are ready to forget about their air conditioners. But before you do, ask yourself—should you check your AC before the fall? The answer is yes. Whether you’re focused on heating and cooling in Colorado Springs or anywhere else, scheduling air conditioning maintenance before the cold sets in can save you time, money, and hassle down the road.
When you live somewhere like the Black Forest area, it’s nice to know that you can enjoy the heating comfort provided by a heat pump that will keep up with your needs. Whether it’s the coldest of days or the middle of a heat wave, you know your heat pump will work hard–until it stops doing so.
Nobody likely waking up to a chilly house in the middle of winter, only to discover that their heater is supposed to be operating and isn’t. Maybe it’s making noise and some air is coming through the vents, but it’s not actually warm. This is a clear sign that something is amiss with your heat pump.
There are other signs, too, that can indicate a problem with your heat pump system. Read on as we uncover what they are, and then if you discover any of these signs, give us a call!
Home comfort can seem like quite the challe
nge in the winter–especially when temperatures are at their coldest. You run your heater, but you don’t feel as comfortable as you think you should. In fact, it only seems to make the dry air drier!
This is a bit of a strange phenomenon, but your heater isn’t actually making the dry air drier. What’s actually happening is the dryness is making the cold air colder, and this is why you’re feeling uncomfortable.
You see, the ideal relative humidity level in any given home is between 30-50%. Anything below 30%, which our humidity levels often are as the temperatures cool down, is considered too dry. Since humidity holds in heat, you’ll not only feel dry but you’ll feel like you can’t quite warm up either. Read on to learn what the solution is to this problem!
