Dirty Air Filters Damage Systems

A dirty air filter can substantially increase the cost of running your heater and A/C. When was the last time you changed yours? Check your air filter every month, especially during heavy use periods like winter and summer. If the filter looks dirty after a month, change it. At a minimum, change the air filter every three months to keep dust and dirt from building up in the system, which could lead to expensive repairs or even early system failure. Contact the Westinghouse HVAC experts for even more tips on saving energy while optimizing home comfort.

Average Life Span of an Air Conditioner

How old is your A/C system? If it’s more than 12 years, it may be time for a replacement. Even if the system seems fine, it’s nearing the end of its life and could be costing you much more to run than a newer, more energy efficient model. As heating and air experts, we can help you select a Westinghouse system that will help you save energy and money, too. Call for a consultation today.

Selecting an Air Conditioner That's Right for Your Home

Don’t be tempted to buy a bigger air conditioner than you need. Instead, choose the most energy-efficient unit that will cool the size space you have. A larger than necessary unit will cost more to run and may not keep your home as comfortable as the right-sized equipment.
