What you Need to Know About Zoning

How do zoning systems save energy? They allow you to manage how warm or cool each room of your home is by working with your central heating and air system to provide individualized control. The system is designed to automatically open and close dampers in your home's ductwork, letting in just the right amount of air based on thermostat settings for each zone. Everyone stays comfortable in every room, and you'll avoid wasting energy. As Westinghouse heating and air experts, we can recommend a zoning system or other equipment that can cut your energy bills and make your home more comfortable. Call us for a consultation today.

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.

How Properly Placed Trees Help Your AC Performance

Strategic landscaping will help keep your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Plant deciduous trees to block the sun's rays to avoid overheating. When these trees lose their leaves in the winter, they’ll allow the sun to help warm your home all day long. Combine this idea with additional tips and energy efficient equipment options from us, the Westinghouse HVAC experts, to reduce annual energy costs. Call for more information today.
