Seasonal Tips:

• Keep air-supply outlets and return inlets clear of obstructions.
• Clear leaves, brush and dirt as they accumulate on the outside unit.  If there is a pipe for draining condensate water, check it for blockage.
• Check the air filters once a month during the operating season.  Replace them if they look dirty (some are washable).
• Invest in a digital, programmable thermostat.  When no one is home during the day or for extended periods, a programmable thermostat can run the air conditioner at a temperature that will require less energy.  Then the program can adjust itself to a temperature to your liking before you come home.  Setting your temperature at 78 degrees while home and 85 degrees when away are recommended for energy savings.
• Routinely have a pre-season check-up.  Consider purchasing a maintenance agreement through Airmax which covers both the heating and cooling seasons.  Having your system inspected and tuned can prevent a breakdown.

How efficient is your heating and cooling system? If your system is below current efficiency standards, then replacing it with a more efficient one can result in as much as 50% in annual savings for heating and cooling your home.

Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio

The efficiency of heating and cooling systems are measured according to their SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio). The higher the rating the greater the efficiency. In April, 2004, the Department of Energy increased the minimum efficiency from 10 to 13 SEER, effective January, 2006. The majority of systems installed before 1992 are 10 SEER or below and will continue to drop in efficiency as the system ages.The systems that we carry not only already meet the government standard; in many cases they exceed it. By upgrading to a unit with a higher SEER you could potentially save thousands of dollars.
