Tips On Using Curtains or Blinds

Are your summer A/C costs getting out of control? Use fans and set your thermostat three to five degrees higher.

Do You Know What's Hiding In Your Carpet?

Carpets are great for home comfort, but not so good for air quality because they collect dust and dander. If your home is carpeted, be sure to vacuum regularly. In addition, consider a whole house air cleaner to remove toxins and improve the overall air quality of your home. Contact us, the Westinghouse HVAC experts, for more information 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.
