Before you start to regularly use your home heating system for the winter, it’s a wise idea to consider the condition of your HVAC system. That means more than thinking about your furnace or heat pump. You also need to think about the “V” in “HVAC,” the ventilation system made up of ductwork. These ducts are mostly out of your sight, installed between walls and in the attic. 

If you have ducts that are damaged or have air leaks, it can have severe negative effects on your home comfort, energy use, and even the quality of the air in your home. You can schedule duct testing with our team to see if you need duct services like duct sealing or duct replacement in Wrightsville, GA.

Humidity and Your AC: What You Need to Know

Monday, July 22nd, 2024
The word “HUMIDITY” written on a foggy glass window with condensation.

Do air conditioning systems help with the humidity in a home? This is a common question that people ask HVAC technicians, and it’s especially a concern in Nashville because it can get quite humid during the summer.

Not fun!

So, does the AC provide any help in controlling this, aside from lowering the actual indoor temperature? We’ll talk about this below as well as look into a possible solution, installing a dehumidifier in Nashville, TN.
