There are a number of factors that should affect which heating or air conditioning product you should choose, and most of them have to do with your home. What is your home's age? How big is it? How many rooms are there? What kind of materials is it made of? What is the local climate? What are the average utility costs in your area? All of these factors determine how much energy it takes to heat or cool your home; once you know that, you can narrow down your choice to units with the capabilities you need. If you're replacing an old system, choose a new one with equal or greater efficiency ratings.
Your HVAC system should be professionally inspected once a year Inspections of the air conditioning and heat pump should include the fan, compressor, indoor and outdoor coils, and refrigerant lines. Inspections of your boiler and furnace systems should include your duct work, pipes, the chimney, dampers, valves, radiators, pumps, registers, blowers, fuel lines, the gas meter, oil tank and every part of the actual boiler and furnace.
To make sure that your HVAC system is operating properly and as efficiently as it should, there are a few things you can do. First, make sure that your air filters are changed every month or at your manufacturer's direction. You should also make sure to keep your outdoor unit free of nearby foliage, debris, and anything else that might interfere with its efficiency. Finally, get your unit serviced by a professional before peak season.
