When to Air Out the Inside

Did you know that your efforts to save energy could be compromising your indoor air quality? That’s because harmful elements can’t escape an airtight environment, and become concentrated indoors instead. We recommend that you “air out” your home about once a week. In the winter, turn off your heating system and open a few windows while you make a run to the grocery store or take a walk around the neighborhood. In the summer, open windows at night and keep them closed during the heat of the day. As Westinghouse heating and air experts, we can recommend additional products and practices to improve the air quality of your home. Call us for a consultation today.

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.
