Q: What is the rule of thumb for return duct sizing?

• <div><p>The standard rule for return duct sizing is that the return vent should be the same size or larger than the supply vent. This will ensure balanced airflow in your home and reduce strain on your HVAC system.</p></div>

Q: How many HVAC quotes should I get?

• <div><p>Most experts recommend getting three to five HVAC quotes from licensed, insured, reputable local heating and cooling companies. Getting multiple detailed HVAC quotes (but not too many) lets you compare the equipment, services, and prices of several contractors without being overwhelmed by options. It can also let you see if one contractor&rsquo;s prices are much higher or lower than the others and give you a chance to ask for clarification. That way, you can weed out any contractors who aren&rsquo;t providing quality services or materials and find the company that best meets your budget, quality requirements, and long-term goals. </p></div>

Q: How do I choose a good central air conditioner?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re trying to buy a new AC unit, there are a few crucial factors to consider. Look at the cooling capacity, the available warranty, the energy efficiency, and the type of unit. A ductless unit will cost more up front but may be a more viable option if you don&rsquo;t already have ductwork. Additionally, a unit with better energy efficiency will cost less to run overall, saving you money on your monthly energy bill. </p></div>

Q: Should you tip HVAC technicians?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not customary to tip HVAC technicians, and most professionals won&rsquo;t expect it. However, it&rsquo;s a nice way of showing your appreciation for the work they do, especially if they come out in inclement weather or on a weekend or holiday to fix an emergency issue if your heat or AC goes out in extreme temperatures. A good tip would be between 10% to 20% of the total bill, depending on how above and beyond the tech goes for your repair and on the total cost of your HVAC repair or service. For something like a routine tune-up or scheduled maintenance, tips aren&rsquo;t expected.</p></div>

Q: Can I use dry mode instead of a dehumidifier?

• <div><p>While &quot;dry&quot; mode on your AC can help reduce humidity levels to some extent, it may not be as effective as a dedicated dehumidifier, especially in areas with extremely high humidity or larger spaces. Dehumidifiers are specifically designed to remove moisture from the air more efficiently, making them a better choice for tackling persistent humidity issues.</p></div>

We are very pleased with the work he did. He replaced an old dryer venting line that had completely broken down and was putting a lot of lint out into the inside of our home. It so nice to run the dryer now and not have all that hot moist air and lint going everywhere. Thanks Van
