How a Newer Gas Furnace Will Save You Money
Monday, December 21, 2015
Two weeks ago, we wrote a blog about how to tell that your old furnace should retire. One of those signs is a furnace that costs too much to run. It’s obvious that an aging machine simply won’t be as energy efficient as a newer one. However, there’s more to the improvement in energy efficiency with a new furnace. The technology of furnaces has increased significantly, allowing them to convert their energy source to heating fuel with much less waste than ever before. For example, the average AFUE rating of gas furnaces was once around 60%, which means that only 60% of the energy the furnaces consumed was converted to thermal energy, and 40% went to waste. Today furnaces can score AFUE ratings of 80% up to 97%. How is this possible?

A common misconception that people have regarding air conditioners is that the larger a system in a home, the more effective the system will be at keeping the space cool. Homeowners want the best installation they can possibly find, and unfortunately they often conflate “best” with “biggest.” When it comes to a central air conditioning system, a bigger unit is rarely the best one. If you’re planning on an air conditioning installation or replacement for your home, apply the Goldilocks logic: find an AC that is neither too big, nor too small, but just right.

Monday, October 19, 2015
Fall is the period when most HVAC companies start to recommend to their customers how they can deal with the change in the weather and to prepare for winter. But the situation is a bit different here in the Orlando area, where we often enjoy temperatures in the 80s deep into the fall, and sometimes even hotter days mixed in. Air conditioning is almost year-round for us, so it’s always a wise idea to look at ways to keep AC bills down.
