Is Your Heater Struggling to Cycle Properly?

October 26th, 2020

Cycles, it’s all about cycles! What are we talking about? Well, you’ve got the water cycle taking care of your plants in your garden, the planetary cycle keeping the seasons in check, and the cycle of your heater keeping things comfortable in your home! Wait, you don’t know about that last part?

Heaters, just like air conditioners, run on cycles in order to keep things at the temperatures specified on your thermostat. By using a specific amount of energy or natural gas, they can produce enough heat to meet the requirements of your home and then shut off for a period of time. When cycled correctly, a heater will keep you comfortable with minimal energy or fuel consumption. If your heater is not cycling correctly, then you might need help with your HVAC in Covington, LA.

Keep reading as we get into the details about how heater cycling works.

Here’s What an AC Tune-Up Can Do for You

September 14th, 2020

Let’s be honest, you’ve always thought that air conditioning maintenance was optional, right? After all, it’s advertised like that everywhere. You could join our maintenance program, but you don’t have to. We think this is false advertising and a norm that should be changed.

It’s always a good idea and it can be vital in taking care of problems before they really start to cause damage. We want to change the way you think about air conditioning tune-ups in Livingston, LA. We want you to start thinking about this service like the mandatory one it is, rather than some optional service that doesn’t really matter.
