- How do I know if my ducts are leaking?
- Common signs include rooms that are consistently hotter or colder than others, excessive dust accumulation, and a sudden spike in your utility bills.
- What does a UV light do inside the AC system?
- UV air purifiers kill mold, bacteria, and viruses on the evaporator coil and in the airstream, preventing biological growth and improving indoor air quality.
- How often should I change my air filter?
- Standard 1-inch filters should be changed every 30 to 90 days depending on pets and usage. High-capacity media filters can last 6 to 12 months.
- Does duct sealing really save money?
- Yes. Leaky duct joints in a hot attic lose up to 30% of your conditioned air. Sealing these connections prevents cold air from escaping and attic dust from being sucked in, lowering utility bills by 10% to 20%.
- What is whole-house air filtration?
- Whole-house media filtration systems are installed directly in your return air stream. They use thick 4-inch to 5-inch filters that capture 99% of dust, pet dander, and mold spores, outperforming standard 1-inch filters.
- Why are some rooms in my house hotter than others?
- This is usually caused by unbalanced duct airflow, single-return layouts, poor insulation, or duct damage. We balance system dampers and seal leaks to ensure even cooling.
