Changing your filters: To take full advantage of your HVAC system, your filters should be changed every six months "depending on filter rating" in your home and every three months in commercial buildings.Various manufacturers contain reusable filters, which need to be cleaned. Vacuuming and rinsing these filters regularly will ensure longer life and greater efficiency from your system.
Home Insulation: Properly insulating your home can greatly affect the comfort level in your residence. Having the appropriate “R-Value” (the higher the value, the better the insulating muscle) is very important. An appropriate R-Value for your exterior walls lies around R-13, and for your ceilings an R-30 is recommended. You can more easily maintain comfortable temperatures all year long and reduce your energy bills by properly insulating your home.
Keep your air clean: According to air quality experts, the air in your home can actually be more contaminated than the air outside. There are plenty of manufactures that offer filters which may be attached to your HVAC System to make sure you are breathing the cleanest air possible.
