The season of giving is just around the corner. Why not treat your home to professional duct cleaning this holiday season? Duct cleaning is an important aspect of home maintenance. Not only does it keep the air in your home clean, but it also ensures the proper function of your home’s HVAC system.

Dirty ductwork is also responsible for numerous home comfort issues. When your indoor air quality is poor due to dirty ducts, it can cause a number of health and wellness issues. Because ductwork is not visible in a home, many homeowners neglect their maintenance when they’re out of sight and out of mind.

The Details You Should Know About Whole-House Air Purifiers

Monday, July 4th, 2022

Modern homes are more efficient than ever because they are built to be airtight. This is great for temperature control but not so great for your indoor air quality (IAQ). You actually want some level of airflow throughout your home and that includes fresh air displacing older, stale air. But an airtight house ends up just recirculating the same air over and over again.

So why is this a problem? The main issue here is that, if certain contaminants get into your houses, such as dust or pet dander, or even bacteria, they just keep getting recirculated throughout the house. One of the best ways to address a higher volume of airborne contaminants negatively affecting your IAQ is through the use of a whole-house air purifier in Dublin.

If you want to learn more about these systems, you can read the details about them below. Otherwise, reach out to Premier Heating & Air to get your installation started!

How Your Ductwork Could Be Costing You Money

Monday, October 25th, 2021
duct-sealing

What is the condition of your home’s ductwork? You probably don’t have an answer to this question because you can’t see most of the ducts in the house. They’re hidden in walls, ceilings, and the attic. That makes it easy to not think about the ducts much at all, as if they won’t change over the years.

But ducts can suffer damage, sag with age, and have troubles due to poor installation. This can lead to the ducts having air leaks. These air leaks are how your ducts could become costly for you—seemingly small problems that turn into energy thieves. This isn’t a rare occurrence, either. Many homes unknowingly have leaky air ducts for years and don’t realize they’re paying more to heat or cool their homes than they should.

We want to help you stop leaky ducts from gobbling up money. Below we’ll look into the trouble with leaky ducts, how to detect them, and what to do about them.

Humidity Is Bad News in Summer for More Than One Reason

Monday, May 24th, 2021
Condensation forming on the inside of a window, indicating high indoor humidity.

Although we’re used to thinking of humidity as an all-around negative, that’s not true. In fact, during a cool winter day, a rise in humidity takes the edge off the colder temperatures and makes it easier to stay warm. Humidity also keeps skin moisturized and prevents dried-out sinuses.

But these are all winter issues, and we’re now at the end of spring, with temperatures and humidity on the rise. Nobody likes high humidity in the summer! 

You can’t do much about high humidity levels outdoors, but there are solutions to help inside your home. Central AC repairs in Conyers, GA from our technicians can help an air conditioner get better control over humid conditions, and we also offer installation of powerful whole-house dehumidifiers that allow you to balance humidity at the perfect spot between too humid and too dry. If you’re wondering whether your AC is enough to handle humidity, we can help you determine whether it’s time to supplement your system with additional support.

Clean Ducts Can Make a Difference

Monday, April 26th, 2021

Duct cleaning is an important aspect of property upkeep, ensuring the proper function of your home’s heating or cooling system. Any issue with the ductwork may lead to several issues that might disrupt proper cooling or heating, making you call for early maintenance or repairs. 

Essentially, air duct cleaning intends to make sure the air inside your home is pollutant-free and the required temperature. An HVAC company may clean your system’s air ducts by providing services such as pre-inspection of the ducts and debris removal from the heating and cooling system components. Additionally, it may also include a post-cleaning inspection and run-through of the system to ensure the cleaning was successful.
