With California rapidly moving along with its transition to solar and electric heating from natural gas, now is a more relevant time than ever to invest in a heat pump for your home’s HVAC system. We’d urge all of our customers to consider more eco-friendly options that take advantage of some of California’s tax and rebate policies. There’s just never been as good a time to invest in solar-powered heat pumps!
The following are just some of the reasons you should consider installing a heat pump on your property.
Back in the day, the most important aspect of HVAC systems was centered on how well they worked. You could have a wood-burning furnace but as long as that baby burned bright and kept you warm, it didn’t matter how much fuel was consumed. Soon, we began to learn about how much fuel we were using to power all of our homes, and prices of these materials began to rise. Wood-burning heaters turned out to be some of the most inefficient heating systems in the world, and we turned to better materials like electricity and gas.
A heat pump is a conglomeration of a lot of different smaller components. We’ve touched on HVAC sounds on this blog numerous times, but we’d like to talk about a specific sound in regards to a specific system. A rattling heat pump is a problem that many homeowners might ignore due to budgeting or the fact that the heat pump still works, but just because a system still works doesn’t mean it’s working well.
If your furnace is making strange noises at night or it’s beginning to smell like an old toaster oven, then you might have some problems that require professional

What a good question! If we could give you a yes or no answer, we’d be a little stuck. On one hand, we want to be absolutely honest, so we’d tell you that it might not mean that you’re in imminent danger. However, safety is always the number one priority, so we’d be irresponsible not to tell you that a booming furnace can be dangerous. It really depends on your furnace, your situation, and the time it’s gone without professional care.
Don’t think we forgot about all the heat pump and furnace owners in our area. If you’re the owner of a forced-air heating system, then this blog post is specifically designed to help target a problem that we see all the time. We’re going to focus on issues with a blower motor, one of the integral components of a heating system that uses hot air to heat a home.
It’s no secret that our consumption of electricity at home has dramatically increased over the past few decades. A home in the 1980s used far less electricity than a home today, now that we have access to so many helpful and nifty devices that keep our lives productive, fun, and healthy. Your HVAC system is part of that list of appliances, and many HVAC systems run competently on electricity to the point where we’re seeing a bit of an energy revolution in the HVAC industry.
Back in the day, oil heaters were some of the most reliable systems on the market. To a certain extent, they’re not all bad. If you’ve just purchased a new home with an oil heater that’s only a few years old, then we’d advise you to at least give it a chance before getting it replaced. But you’re likely going to see high heating prices and a more difficult time getting repairs and oil deliveries for your home.
Ugh! This must be the third time this month that you’ve cleaned off your vents, or that you’ve contemplated opening them up to see why they won’t keep your home comfortable. You get your HVAC system maintained yearly, you even invested in an air filtration system to block out contaminants, so what gives? Why are your air vents dirty and why don’t they work properly?
