Importance of Routine Maintenance on Your HVAC System

October 9, 2013

Just like prevention is key in health care, prevention is also key when it comes to taking care of your HVAC system. Maintaining your HVAC system is extremely important. There are things you can and should be doing on your own – like checking and changing the filter. But scheduling regular maintenance on your HVAC systems is extremely important.  With HVAC, prevention is key. If you notice that your HVAC system is not functioning properly, first you should check the filter. A clogged filter is oftentimes the source of the problem and thankfully is one of the easiest fixes there are. Why regular maintenance?

June 25, 2013

Could Geothermal be the Solution For You? Extracting the energy which has been stored in the ground since the actual formation of our planet is not science fiction. Quite on the contrary, archeological evidence shows that geothermal heat has been exploited by humankind since the earliest period of the Stone Age. Furthermore, it is a renewable source both supplied by the natural radioactive processes in the deeper levels of the ground and the solar waves absorbed on the surface of the globe. Today, technological advances provide cost-effective and easily applicable solutions even for units as small as a single household to benefit from this opportunity.
