"The guys from Healthy Homes were awesome. In our initial inspection, Peyton took the time to do a thorough search of our house looking for mold and any potential causes. He crawled all around the attic and crawl space in search of anything he could find which I greatly appreciated. The guys were always on time, and they were kind enough to answer each of my ten thousand questions. Hearing why they recommended the services they did was incredibly helpful for my wife and I. It was clear they werenâ t trying to pull any fast ones on a relatively new homeowner like myself. Jacobâ s expertise regarding foundations was greatly appreciated as well since we have an older home. He explained to me the proper ways to take care of and waterproof a foundation. His recommendation of investing in a dehumidifier, while somewhat pricey, was well worth it because it will help keep the air circulating throughout our house healthy. It will also be something we can pack up and take with us the next time we move homes, so it was well worth the investment."

"They donâ  t have equipment to reach vents in high ceilings. Bummer. Please double count the number of vents and returns on a paper. Do on your own ahead of time and write it down per each room."

"Computer did the "gotta send info to Microsoft" but when tried to reboot it ran through automatic repair without success. I did all the alternative without any success. He came and picked up the hard drive on Tuesday and returned it on Saturday. Fortunately he was able to "restore" without any data loss. Very happy with outcome."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

The best way to save money on HVAC repairs is by regularly having your system inspected and maintained. This can prevent bigger problems and costly repairs and replacements in the future. It’s also smart to buy quality equipment and hire companies that provide warranties on equipment and labor. If you need repairs, you may be able to save money by cashing in on rebates and incentives or keeping the area around your HVAC unit clear to shorten the time your contractor needs to spend in your home.

HVAC companies may charge an hourly rate or a flat fee. Hourly rates typically range from $100 to $250 per hour, with an average around $175. Some contractors charge a flat fee for specific services, such as an inspection, which can cost between $150 and $500. The total cost of an HVAC service is influenced by several factors, including: the urgency of the service (emergency repairs after hours or on holidays cost more), the time of year, the type, size, and brand of your HVAC system, the specific repair needed, and whether you have a service contract.

If your HVAC system's capacity doesn't match the required CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), imbalances can occur. An undersized system struggles to maintain desired temperatures, leading to discomfort. An oversized system might short-cycle, wasting energy and causing temperature fluctuations. Properly matching capacity to CFM ensures efficient and consistent heating, cooling, and home ventilation system performance.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Choosing a unit with higher BTUs can use more electricity if the BTUs are more than what’s necessary for your room size. However, choosing an AC with BTUs that match the size of your room or house, your unit will cool your space efficiently. On the flip side, choosing a system with not enough BTUs can cause the system to work harder to try to cool the space, leading to more electricity consumption and higher energy bills.
