Q: Why is there a skunky smell in my house?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;ve spotted a skunk or know that one of these furry creatures sprayed one of your family members, your answer is fairly obvious. However, a skunky smell in your house that isn&rsquo;t coming from these critters may be a sign of a dangerous gas leak. If you suspect this, leave your home immediately and call emergency services. It could also be a build-up of dangerous gas in your home&rsquo;s septic system or plumbing. Call a professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/plumbers/">plumber near you</a> to make an assessment. </p></div>

Q: Why is my AC running, but no cool air is coming out?

• <div><p>There are a few reasons your AC is running but not cooling your room. Thermostat issues and dust and debris, which can clog your system, are common problems. It could also be a broken component, such as a compressor, blower fan, or evaporator coils. You&rsquo;ll need to call a pro to diagnose the issue.</p></div>

Q: Should my HVAC damper be open or closed?

• <div><p>Whether an HVAC damper should be open or closed depends on the season, the zone it controls, and the temperature in that zone. In the summer, open upstairs dampers and close lower-level dampers to get the most efficient cooling possible. In the winter, do the opposite. Cool air will naturally flow down to lower levels, while warm air will rise. This keeps your system from working harder and helps prevent <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/troubleshooting-common-air-conditioning-problems.htm">common AC problems</a>.</p></div>

Q: Should you leave the house during duct cleaning?

• <div><p>Most experts recommend leaving the house during a duct cleaning, especially if you have small kids or pets. The process is noisy and disruptive, and the house will be filled with specialized equipment. The technicians may also require seamless access to different areas of the home. Talk to your pros and ask them if you should take a short walk around the neighborhood while they work. </p></div>

Q: Is FPR better than MERV?

• <div><p>No, FPR isn&rsquo;t necessarily better than MERV. Both systems measure an air filter&rsquo;s effectiveness, but they express it on different scales. FPR ratings range from 1 to 12, while MERV ratings run between 1 and 20. However, some people might find FPR ratings easier to understand since they&rsquo;re color-coded and have descriptors like &ldquo;good,&rdquo; &ldquo;better,&rdquo; and &ldquo;premium.&rdquo;</p><p> </p></div>

Mark was responsive and honest. His team came out and did a great job. He helped us with the pricing and got us a fair price on great equipment. It is never easy to purchase two new AC units for your home, but Coolmark made it as painless as possible.
