Air Quality- It’s only a millennial thing right 😊

Alpine Heating and Cooling • May 21, 2019

In heating and air conditioning, we are usually on focused on the temperature of our homes and offices. There is another important issue that most people never consider – the quality of your indoor air. Poor indoor air quality can lead to stale air , allergies etc… ! As we head proceed through spring and into summer it’s just as important to consider air quality as temperature . Pretty flowers and lush green yards come with a price – allergens!


Three things that can substantially affect your indoor air quality


Filters

Filter changes are important not only in the spring but, year-round. Unfortunately, most people punt this chore 😊. Most people don’t even think about it until it becomes so dirty and clogged that it is causing problems with your unit. But, it’s a simple task that you can do yourself and avoid a service call. We recommend changing your filter at least twice a year in Ohio – once in the Fall and once in the Spring. If you do not feel comfortable with this task or (don’t want to deal with it 😊) we offer a year Elevated Residential Service Agreement that includes Spring & Fall visits. While there, our techs will replace your filters, check and clean your system amongst a few other perks like Priority Service.


Dust

Does your home seem to be collecting dust more recently ? Check your filter! This is usually one of the first noticeable signs to most people that there AC is having issues with dust collecting in the system.


Open Windows

Although it can be a good way to remove stagnant indoor air, try to keep the open windows to a minimum. Unfiltered & untreated air enters your home – bringing along dust, dirt and allergens with it.

If you are interested in purchasing a new heating & cooling system, getting your current system serviced or becoming an Elevated Residential client of ours please contact us with any of the below methods and we’d be glad to explain your options.

Choosing the right heating system can make a big difference in comfort and energy costs. For homeowners in Wayne, Holmes, and Ashland counties, Ohio, the most common options include natural gas furnaces, propane furnaces, and electric heating systems. But which option makes the most sense for your home? Natural Gas Heating: Efficient and Affordable Natural gas furnaces are a popular choice throughout Northeast Ohio. Modern high-efficiency furnaces can achieve 95% AFUE or higher, delivering reliable warmth during cold Ohio winters. For homes with access to natural gas, it's often one of the most cost-effective heating options. Propane Heating: Great for Rural Ohio Homes Many homeowners in rural Holmes, Wayne, and Ashland counties rely on propane because natural gas lines aren't available. Propane furnaces provide dependable heat during freezing temperatures. While propane can cost more than natural gas, high-efficiency equipment can help keep heating expenses under control. Electric Heating and Heat Pumps: A Modern Alternative Electric heat pumps have improved significantly in recent years. Unlike traditional electric furnaces, heat pumps transfer heat rather than generate it, making them much more energy-efficient. Modern cold-climate heat pumps can work even when temperatures drop below freezing. Some homeowners also choose dual-fuel heating systems, combining a heat pump with a gas furnace for efficient heating throughout the winter. Which Heating System Is Best for Your Ohio Home? The best heating system depends on fuel availability, energy prices, your home's insulation, and your budget. Whether you live in Wooster, Millersburg, Ashland, or the surrounding communities, choosing the right equipment can improve comfort and help control heating costs.
