Why You Should Service Your AC Regularly

by Cris Scott
Home » New AC Westchase

With summer just a few months away, the season of the air conditioner (AC) is looming. In the sweltering summer months, people rush to switch on their AC for relief from the heat, with nearly 90% of U.S. households using air conditioning in 2020. And we don’t blame them – nothing beats the feeling of stepping out of the scorching sun into a well-cooled room. That being said, to cool a room, you first need to ensure your AC is working optimally. Even though ACs may be one of the most used appliances, most people don’t keep them maintained by calling a technician. And let’s not forget heating either, as winter can be just as demanding on AC units as the summer. As the most trusted HVAC company in the Westchase area, EasyBreezy AC has seen it all when ACs break down or are damaged due to accidental negligence. To help you make the (right) decision of calling the professionals to ensure your AC is in tip-top condition, we’ve listed the benefits you can receive by calling in the AC techs before summer rolls around.

  1. Avoid serious damage

Regularly scheduling maintenance on your ACs can avoid large-scale breakdowns by catching minor repairs early and keeping them from escalating. The relatively minor cost of servicing could very well save you from a major repair bill in case of a breakdown, so don’t save a few cents to spend a lot of dollars later. This leads to better longevity of your AC unit – as a relatively expensive investment, you will want to ensure it lasts a while.

  1. Improve efficiency

In most cases, AC units with regular maintenance work tend to run more efficiently, drawing less power to provide the same amount of cooling as those without. In most cases, this power efficiency is better for the environment, while it can also help to optimize your electricity usage and lower your power bill. Whether servicing an HVAC unit to better cool or heat an area, maximizing its efficiency is key to lower utility bills while also ensuring the unit doesn’t overwork to provide the cooling or heating.  

  1. Reduced environmental damage

The environment can take its toll on your AC unit, especially those with outdoor units. This is primarily a concern for those living near water bodies that contain excessive salt and minerals, such as oceans. Salt can make its way into the unit and cause corrosion which, once built up enough, will lead to your AC breaking down and likely a costly repair or, in the worst conditions having to replace the AC entirely.

  1. Better air quality

Regular cleaning and maintaining your AC and its filter can ensure that it properly filters dust and other particles to ensure that the air being cooled or circulated is as clean of contaminants as possible. This can be especially important in households with people who suffer from respiratory problems or allergies.

  1. Higher resale value

Properly and regularly maintaining your AC can ensure it holds its value, should you desire to re-sell it in the future. ACs that run optimally and look good can fetch a better price in the second-hand market, so if you think you would like to sell your AC in the future, invest in regular servicing to ensure

  1. Warranty Protection

Make it a point to carefully read the fine print of your AC’s manufacturer’s warranty. Often, manufacturers require regular servicing by either their nominated technicians or certified companies to honor the terms of the warranty. Always stick to the guidelines given within the warranty to ensure you are covered in case of manufacturer defects and failures.

  1. Peace of Mind

At the end of the day, all of the above benefits boil down to ensuring your AC is functioning at its optimum without breaking down. Once your AC is on a regular service schedule, you can rest easy knowing that you can enjoy the climate-controlled environment of your home or office without fear of breakdowns or costly repairs.

 

Conclusion

Based on our experience dealing with faulty or damaged ACs, we know that the above benefits are a given when it comes to regular maintenance, and the benefits outweigh the costs. Having your purchase work reliably for years to come is worth it. 

So what’s next? Well, contact a trusted AC maintenance and servicing company to discuss the options available. They will usually have pre-built service packages that cover the main requirements of any AC unit, so it should be a relatively straightforward discussion. Once you’ve set up a service program, you don’t have to worry about remembering to call the company. The technicians will contact you when it’s time for the next service date.

The Ultimate Guide To Buying A New Air Conditioner

The Ultimate Guide To Buying A New Air Conditioner

So, are you ready to purchase your first air conditioner (AC) or upgrade your older one to a new one? An AC unit can be all the difference between your home or office being an unbearable, sweltering nightmare or a cool, comfortable paradise. However, before pulling the trigger there are many factors you should consider to ensure that you get the most out of your new unit.

The main concept that needs to be grasped is that there is no “one size fits all” solution when it comes to cooling your property as each space comes with its own set of requirements so selecting the best AC for your specific needs is crucial. We’ve listed out some of the key points to evaluate prior to making your purchase decision. And while the below tips can be applied universally without restriction, if you’re looking to buy a new AC in Westchase, our team of qualified, friendly technicians are always at hand if you need any more advice on how you can beat the heat and buy the best AC for your specific needs.

 

Table Of Content:

  1. Figure out your cooling requirement
  2. Buy the most efficient models with SEER
  3. Select the appropriate AC type
  4. Choose the best air conditioner brand and model for your needs
  5. Proper installation
  6. Smart features add modern convenience to your AC
  7. Taking care of it

Figure out your cooling requirement

Ensuring you buy an AC that meets the cooling requirement for your exact needs is vital to maximizing the lifetime of your unit as well as saving on electricity costs through better efficiency. An air conditioner’s BTU (British Thermal Unit) rating is used to determine the cooling capacity of the unit and its ability to cool a room or space. A simplified way of looking at BTU is to think of BTU in air conditioner’s as horsepower in cars. Just as a car with higher horsepower will drive faster and perform better, an air conditioner with a higher BTU rating can cool a larger space more effectively and efficiently. Conversely, an AC with a lower BTU would be more suitable for cooling a smaller space with lower cooling requirements.

If the BTU rating is too high, the unit would be less efficient because it would be consuming more energy to cool the area. It would also be switching on and off constantly resulting in more wear than normal as it tried to maintain the temperature. If the BTU rating is too low, it could struggle to cool the room while also running constantly resulting in excess wear.

In general, some of the main factors to consider when you are working out the BTU rating for your AC requirements are:

  • The local climate
  • Room size, dimensions, and layout
  • Insulation
  • The amount of direct sunshine on your property
  • Windows in the room
  • Expected average occupancy
  • Availability of heat-generating appliances

You can work out an approximation of the BTU requirement for your room using online BTU calculators.

Do note however that these calculators only offer an approximation but you should always get a qualified technician to evaluate your cooling requirements before investing in an AC. And in case you’re looking for an AC in the Westchase area, click here for a free consultation

Buy the most efficient models with SEER

Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating (SEER) is a measure of how efficient and green an air conditioner is. The higher the rating, the more efficient the unit is, which would help to drive down operational costs. A rating of 14 or higher is considered a good SEER, though highly efficient units can have ratings as high as 23. The United States Department of Energy has established minimum SEER ratings over the years ranging by state (North and South/South West states are the typical two groups) and in 2023 the minimum will be raised to 14 in the Northern states and 15 in the South/South Western states.

Generally, the upfront costs to purchase a highly rated model is higher the more highly rated, however, you would also enjoy long-term operational savings in electricity consumption. Generally accepted advice is to shop for an air conditioner unit with a minimum SEER of 14 – 16.

Select the appropriate AC type

Depending on your budget, your home layout, cooling requirements and more, you should purchase the type of AC that best fits your needs. There are 8 different, popular AC options: central (ducted) ACs, ductless mini-split ACs, window ACs, portable ACs, floor-mounted ACs, smart ACs, Geothermal AC systems, and hybrid/Dual fuel ACs. We will go into detail on each type of AC in a separate article (or if an article is already available link here), however, the choice of type of AC to install will be a key consideration when it comes to immediate cost (both installation and purchase) and short term cost (operational and maintenance) as each comes with its own benefits and drawbacks.

Choose the best air conditioner brand and model for your needs

After you’ve selected the type of AC you want to install, do some research into the various popular brands and models in that AC category to settle on one that provides high-quality, efficient models while remaining within your budget. Well-known brands are usually known for a reason, they provide high-quality units that meet their customer’s needs. It can be beneficial in the long run to stretch your budget to try and accommodate the better brands or models if possible, as an AC is a long-term investment that comes with its own set of operational costs.

Furthermore, make sure to understand the warranty coverage and service requirements prior to purchasing as this will be crucial in the long-term care of your new AC unit.

Another overlooked point of consideration is the amount of sound the AC can generate, especially when it is at max load. It can become downright annoying to have a steady droning in the background or intermittent bursts of noise to distract at inopportune moments. Try to select one that has a relatively low noise level, usually less than 60 decibels.

Consulting with a qualified contractor can help in this process as they have years of experience installing and maintaining AC units and they can use their knowledge to advise on the best brand and unit to meet your needs and budget. They would also be able to advise you on the recommended maintenance schedule to keep your AC running smoothly.

Proper installation

While it is possible to install some AC units without professional advice or assistance, should the installation be done improperly, it could lead to cooling inefficiencies, higher energy bills, and even damage to your unit. Don’t skimp out on this stage as a professional installation could make all the difference on whether your AC provides the best possible cooling and efficiency, especially in the long run. While making the purchase decision is a key part of the process, it is meaningless if the unit is not properly installed.

Speaking to a few local contractors in your area from the outset of your buying journey can help you along at all stages, from providing you with expert opinion on the required BTU and type of AC unit to providing you with estimates based on your requirements and budgets to finally installing and maintaining your AC units. Just like the actual AC unit, you get what you pay for and what you spend on home refurbishments and repairs ultimately reflect on the quality and longevity of the work. Working with a reliable contractor can ensure the installation is compliant with local building codes and regulations and that proper equipment is used during the installation.  

A DIY installation may also run the risk of not being covered by a manufacturer warranty and (depending on the brand, AC type, and model) may necessitate a professional installation to be covered by the warranty.

Should you make the (wise) decision to use a professional service, it is important you choose the right one for the job, you can find 6 Attributes of a Good HVAC company here, to help you in the selection process. Requesting quotes from multiple contractors can also help you in your selection process, as you can identify more favorable services for the best possible price when doing so.

Smart features add modern convenience to your AC

Most modern ACs come with some level of automation or smart features that will allow you to remotely control your AC, such as automating the on/off times based on your schedule to monitoring the maintenance needs of the unit, and providing you with historical stats on usage. Depending on your home setup, you may want an AC that is compatible with the rest of your smart home setup, so make it a point to make sure AC smart features would work with your smart home platform of choice. These features can just be nice to have conveniences but some also improve the overall efficiency and usage of your unit.

Taking care of it

So you’ve sprung for the perfect AC unit that covers your cooling requirements, is from a reputed brand, and was professionally installed? Great, chapter closed and now it’s just time to sit back and enjoy your sweat-free, cold (but not too cold) paradise, right? Not quite. No matter how perfect your selection and installation may be, things can always go wrong usually with the passage of time and regular wear and tear.

This is why the service plan and warranty are key steps in the purchase decision. Making sure you’re covered by an industry standard or leading warranty will ensure that a defective unit doesn’t break the bank to repair while a structured service plan will ensure to limit the wear on your unit to ensure it’s working at its optimal capacity.

 

Conclusion

We hope the guide provides you with direction when it comes to making one of the best quality-of-life purchasing decisions you can make.

8 Top Air Conditioning Maintenance Tips

by Cris Scott
Home » New AC Westchase

westchase air conditioning company

Air conditioning is essential to modern life, especially in hot and humid climates. Not only does it keep us cool and comfortable, but it also helps to regulate the humidity levels in our homes and businesses. While many air conditioning companies in Westchase offer units that are generally reliable and low maintenance, it is essential to follow some maintenance tips to ensure that they continue to run efficiently and effectively:

 

Navigation table:

    1. Keep the unit clean
    2. Replace the air filter regularly
    3. Keep the area around the unit clear
    4. Insulate the air ducts
    5. Check and tighten all electrical connections
    6. Check and refill the refrigerant
    7. Clean the condenser coils
    8. Schedule regular maintenance

Keep the unit clean

Dirt and debris can build up on the fins and coils of your air conditioning unit, reducing its efficiency and potentially damaging the system. Regularly cleaning the unit will help it to run more efficiently and last longer. To clean the unit, turn off the power, remove any debris or leaves from the area around the unit, and use a garden hose to spray the fins and coils gently. Use a low-pressure setting and avoid bending or damaging the fins.

Replace the air filter regularly

The air filter is an important component of your air conditioning unit, as it helps to remove dust, dirt, and other contaminants from the air. If the filter becomes clogged, it can reduce the unit’s efficiency and cause it to work harder to cool your home. It is generally recommended to replace the air filter every one to three months, depending on the type of filter and the amount of use.

Keep the area around the unit clear

Keeping the area around your new air conditioning unit free of debris and clutter is vital. This will allow the unit to operate more efficiently and reduce the risk of damage. Keep plants, grass, and other objects at least two feet away from the unit. Do not block the airflow by placing objects on top of or in front of the unit.

Insulate the air ducts

If your home has a forced-air heating and cooling system, adequately insulate the air ducts. Insulating the ducts can reduce energy costs and improve the efficiency of your air conditioning unit.

Check and tighten all electrical connections

Over time, electrical connections can become loose, which can lead to problems with your air conditioning unit. To prevent this, check all electrical connections regularly and tighten them as needed.

Check and refill the refrigerant

The refrigerant in your air conditioning unit is responsible for cooling the air and transferring heat. If the refrigerant levels are low, your unit will be less efficient and may not cool properly. It is crucial to have a professional check the refrigerant levels and refill as needed.

Clean the condenser coils

The condenser coils are responsible for releasing heat from the refrigerant and can become dirty over time. To clean the condenser coils, turn off the power to the unit, remove the protective cover, and use a soft brush or a coil cleaning solution to scrub the coils gently. Rinse the coils thoroughly with water and allow them to dry completely before replacing the cover.

Schedule regular maintenance

It is essential to schedule regular maintenance with a trusted air conditioning company in Westchase to keep your new AC unit running smoothly. During a maintenance visit, a technician will inspect the unit and perform any necessary repairs or adjustments to ensure that it is running flawlessly again.

 

Conclusion

Regular maintenance will not only help to extend the life of your unit, but it will also save you money on energy costs and prevent costly repairs down the road. If you need help with any of the maintenance tasks or would like a professional to take a look at your unit, contact the EasyBreezy AC team now! We are happy to help keep your home cool and comfortable all summer.

6 Attributes Of a Good HVAC Company

by Cris Scott
Home » New AC Westchase

Heating and AC services Westchase FL

If you own a home, your HVAC system is one of the essential services you rely on. But just as important as installing an effective new heating and AC system is knowing which HVAC company to trust with your repairs and maintenance needs. A good Air conditioning company can make all the difference in providing peace of mind about costly repair expenses or inconvenient breakdowns during peak seasons. Here are seven attributes of a quality heating and AC provider that you should consider:

 

They are certified, licensed and insured

Homeowners must always ensure that the air conditioning company they choose is certified, licensed, and insured to guarantee their protection. If the business has proper certification and licensing, the air conditioning company understands local regulations and has taken all necessary steps to meet a legitimate organization’s requirements.

Insurance also assures homeowners that if any unexpected issues arise after their AC system is installed or repaired, they will be well covered financially. A certified, licensed, insured air conditioning company is essential for homeowners to feel secure and confident about investing in their cooling systems.

 

They give you a guarantee

It would be best to ensure that the air conditioning company you hire will provide you with reliable service and a satisfactory result. This is why a guarantee offers homeowners an added layer of comfort and assurance. 

In addition, many companies will also include preventive maintenance as part of their guarantee, which can help homeowners detect and address any problems early before they become more costly or cause more considerable disruption. An air conditioning company that provides guarantees shows homeowners their commitment to quality work, giving homeowners peace of mind when choosing their provider.

Provide 24/7 emergency service

Most common heating and AC issues happen outside regular business hours, so it is vital to find a provider available to conduct AC repairs or maintenance when needed. A catastrophic breakdown can occur anytime, day or night, so you can rest assured that help is just a phone call away. 

Hiring an air conditioning service that provides 24/7 emergency assistance is an invaluable investment. Choose a contractor that focuses on providing this type of service, so you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your home and its temperature are in safe hands.

 

They provide quality products and equipment

Although choosing the least expensive option to save money in the short term may be tempting, installing high-quality products can result in long-term savings through lower energy bills and fewer repair costs down the road. 

If you want to install a new AC or repair your existing AC system, you need to hire a heating and AC company that uses quality products and equipment. This is the best way to ensure a longer life for the unit and fewer repair and maintenance issues in the future. 

 

Knowledgeable and experienced technicians

Competent professionals have the skills to diagnose issues with your cooling system and a wealth of experience that will ensure any repair job is done correctly and efficiently. When hiring an air conditioning company, ensure its technicians are adequately trained and certified and have years of industry experience. 

These technicians will be able to recommend the best upgrades and modifications you can make to ensure that your heating and cooling system is running problem-free during those hot or cold months.

 

Help others in their community

If hiring an air conditioning company, consider hiring one committed to giving back to its community. By selecting a company that prioritizes contributing to local causes, homeowners will benefit from excellent service and feel proud of taking an active role in their community. Companies actively involved in their communities typically provide better service because they understand how important it is to build trust and loyalty among their homeowners. 

 

Conclusion

When Should You Call for AC Repair?

by Cris Scott
Home » New AC Westchase

AC reapir Westchase | Easybreezy AC

When your air conditioner isn’t working, it can be a serious problem. Not only will you be uncomfortable, but you’ll also have to spend money on repairs and replacement. Of course, there are some tell-tale signs that the unit is about to break down. Here’s when you should call for AC repair:

 

Table Of Content:

  1. Your AC unit isn’t working correctly
  2. Your thermostat is not accurate
  3. There is no air coming out the vents
  4. Your air conditioner is more than a decade old
  5. Your AC unit is making strange noises
  6. Your air conditioner has frozen over
  7. Your energy bills are rising
  8. Your AC unit turns on and off

 

  1. Your AC unit isn’t working correctly

If your air conditioner isn’t working correctly, it’s time to call for repair. This can be the case if the unit is making strange noises or the climate inside your home is much warmer than expected.

You may need a new one if yours is more than 10 years old, but if it’s less than five years old, you may just need a replacement part from an AC repair technician in order to get everything running smoothly again.

You may also want to consider replacing an old thermostat with a newer model since many older models don’t allow for remote access and control from smartphones and tablets; however, if you’re comfortable having someone else come into your home without any notice (and likely charge extra), then this should be fine too!

  1. Your thermostat is not accurate

If your thermostat is not set correctly, it can lead to problems. If you have an older home’s central air conditioner and are not sure what the temperature should be, check the HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) manual for instructions on how to adjust it.

If your thermostat isn’t accurate, this could mean that it needs replacement or adjustment. The easiest way to be sure of whether or not your thermostat needs repair is by checking its accuracy against another thermometer in the house and paying attention to when certain rooms are too warm or cold. If your thermostat is not working properly or has stopped working altogether, this can also impact how well your cooling system works. 

  1. There is no air coming out the vents

Is your home feeling a little too warm? If you’re noticing that there’s hardly any air coming out of the vents, it might be time to call for ac repair. Without proper airflow, your AC unit won’t be able to do its job, and you’ll end up with a sweltering home this summer.

  1. Your air conditioner is more than a decade old

The lifespan of your air conditioner is about 15 years, so if you have an older unit, it might be time to think about replacing it. You should also consider an upgrade if your current system is more than 10 years old and the repair costs are higher than the cost of a new unit. Newer models are more energy efficient and require less maintenance than older units.

  1. Your AC unit is making strange noises

If you hear a loud buzzing noise when your AC is on, it’s probably not what you think. That buzzing doesn’t necessarily mean that your AC is broken. It could be trying to tell you something—and if it isn’t, then it might be time for an air conditioning repair technician to check it out.

The sounds your air conditioning unit makes can help diagnose problems and find solutions. Here are some things to listen for:

  • Beeping: If the heat pump or condenser fan motor on your central air conditioner is making a constant clicking or beeping sound, this could indicate there’s a problem with the motor bearings or brushes that need replacing.
  • Humming: A humming sound from an outdoor unit indicates that there may be dirt or debris blocking coils inside of the compressor, which causes heat transfer efficiency issues with refrigerant flow and could lead to failure of parts over time as well as poor cooling performance due to lack of refrigerant circulation throughout the duct system.

  1. Your air conditioner has frozen over

If you live in a cooler climate, freezing over can be a common occurrence. This happens when your AC unit is unable to keep up with the temperature outside of your home. During those times when temperatures drop below freezing and your thermostat isn’t set high enough for warming needs (or if you’ve simply forgotten about it), ice can form on your air conditioner’s coils and eventually cause internal damage.

If this happens to you, don’t panic—there are plenty of things that you can do to unfreeze an air conditioner. First off, make sure that all windows are closed so that extra heat stays inside the house instead of being lost into cold night air. If possible, use space heaters or humidifiers in rooms where people spend most of their time during colder months; these small appliances will provide warmth without decreasing energy efficiency as much as turning on an entire central system would do.

  1. Your energy bills are rising

If you’re suddenly noticing that your energy bills are higher than usual, this could be a sign that your AC unit isn’t working properly.

If you want to save money on repairs, consider replacing the unit altogether. However, if you don’t have the budget for that right now or if it’s just not feasible in your situation (for example, maybe it requires tearing out a wall), then do yourself and everyone else in your house a favor by calling for repair services!

An older air conditioner should be repaired within one year of its purchase date or five years after installation—whichever comes first. This gives technicians time to diagnose problems without compromising quality service or parts.

  1. Your AC unit turns on and off

A lot of people wonder why their AC keeps turning on and off frequently. There can be a few reasons for this, but one of the most common is dirty filters. A clogged filter will impede air flow, causing the AC to turn on and off in an effort to maintain the desired temperature. Be sure to check your filter regularly and clean or replace it when needed. If that doesn’t solve the problem, there might be something else causing your AC to behave erratically. Consult an AC repair company for help diagnosing and solving the issue.

 

Conclusion

If your AC isn’t working, it can be a sign that you need to get your air conditioner serviced. It may seem like an overwhelming task to call for repair, but there are plenty of services available to help you out! Just remember that the sooner you call for repair, the more likely that your unit will have another summer-friendly season ahead of it. Contact Easybreezy to schedule your AC maintenance plan.

Organic Pollutants in the Home

Ac services in Tampa and Westchase

Wich organic pollutants are more dangerous?

Organic pollutants found in your home that you should be concerned about are molds, mildew, VOC’s, fungi, bacteria and dust mites. Some, such as pollen, are produced outside the home and enter your home on your clothes, your pets, your hair or simply by opening and closing the front door. That is why, sometimes, getting a New AC Westchase should solve at least part of the problem.

Remember that the average 1500 sq. foot home in Florida generates approximately a wheelbarrow full of dust. And each ounce of that dust contains about 4000 dust mites! Dust mites have been identified as the single most important trigger for asthma attacks.

How Your HVAC Plays A Role In Lingering Odors In Your Home

by Cris Scott
Home » New AC Westchase

Get a new AC in Tampa Bay

 

The biggest reason for the lingering odors in your home is your old AC system. As it runs continuously in the background daily, the air filter and air ducts pick up the substances that cause odor and disperse it throughout your home. Studies show that individuals living in a household cannot detect odors that have become a staple smell in their dwelling. For example, a family that frequently cooks with olive oil will not notice the smell of lingering olive oil in their home over time, but those who don’t visit their home often will pick up on it.  

 

How to minimize the lingering odors in your home

  • When cooking food, it’s crucial to have proper ventilation and use the aerator above the stove. If something begins to burn, open windows and doors to help with ventilation.  
  • Pets are a significant source of many odors; they carry in from outside and produce their own smells. Keeping pets regularly bathed and brushed will help reduce the odors. 
  • Avoid mildew smells by maintaining a stable temperature in your home even when you’re not there. A big mistake people make is turning the AC off when they go to work or leave their homes. This can create an ideal circumstance for mold and mildew. These fungi not only have a distinct potent odor but can also pose a severe health risk. 
  • Keep your sink drains well maintained and clear of food after all meals. Gunk can build up quickly inside the sink drain and cause foul odors in the home.  
  • Every one to two months, deep clean your carpets with hot water and carpet-safe shampoo to remove any allergens or odors trapped in the carpet.

  • Keep the trash bin empty overnight. Take any food waste or organic material such as diapers, food scraps, or coffee grounds to the main bin outside. Keeping them in the home for any period will produce odors.  
  • Clean your ceiling fans. Wipe your fan blades down with an antibacterial cloth or cleaning agent every month. As a bonus, this will also help minimize the dust in your home.  
  • Regularly clean your ovens, toasters, microwaves, and stovetops. These common appliances can quickly become dirty and hold on to odors.  
  • Ensure you are using suitable HVAC filters and replacing them on time. Using a high-quality HVAC filter will eliminate up to 50% of lingering odors in the home and improve the overall smell and air quality.  
  • Getting your AC duct cleaned twice a year and sanitized is also advisable. Doing this eliminates the odors and bacteria trapped inside and helps to reduce dust and dirt circulating through your home.

How To Care For Your HVAC When You Have Pets

AC and heating services in Tampa, FL

 

 For many people, pets are considered part of the family and remain indoors most of the time. However, some challenges can arise when it comes to the existing HVAC system in your home, or you are installing a New AC. Pets can carry pollutants into the house after a lovely afternoon walk, and the dander they can shed directly impacts your A/C and heating system because it’s one giant filtration system. If those pollutants are recirculating through your HVAC system, they can wreak havoc on your allergies and your HVAC system.

 

How to get the cleanest air quality from your existing or New AC  

Changing your air filters regularly is vital to your A/C system and your and your family’s health.

There are a few factors to consider when determining how often you should change your home’s air filters. For example, changing your filters once or twice a year may be acceptable if it is a vacation home with no pets. If it is a modern suburban home with no pets, changing your filters every 90 days work. But, whenever a pet occupies a home, changing your filters every 30 days is standard.

Never use low-quality air filters, as they allow the pet dandruff and dust to recirculate into the home and can cost more money down the road. Over time, costs increase because of the low air quality and the damage it does to your health and your HVAC unit’s vents, ducts, coils, etc. Don’t place objects that have dirt or dust on them near your intake vents, such as a vacuum, shoes, laundry basket, or pet crate.

Tips to get your AC unit running efficiently 

By grooming your pets regularly, preferably outside the home, you will also keep your pet happy and your home’s air cleaner. Doing this should also mean your air filter has noticeably less pet hair when you change it. Dogs and cats with longer, thicker coats should be brushed every 2 days and bathed every 2 weeks. You can double the time between brushing and bathing if your pet has shorter hair, so they should be brushed every 4 days and bathed at least once a month. 

Keeping your carpet vacuumed daily is another crucial step to having healthy air quality and maximizing your system’s performance and longevity. Using a quality vacuum tailored specifically for pet dandruff and hair is another plus, as it naturally removes specific allergens that pets have.  

Keeping your temperature settings as moderate as possible will save you some money and reduce the amount of hair your pets shed. In the summer months, dogs and cats shed their winter coats, and keeping the A/C settings too low or high can harm the natural shedding process. The recommended setting for climates such as Florida is between 69-76 degrees during the summer, and the setting should be from 68 to 72 degrees in the winter. A mistake pet owners make is turning the thermostat up to 80 degrees when they leave the house, which causes shedding to be a year-round problem – adversely impacting the air quality and air conditioning unit.  

While you can do much to limit the effects of pet hair and dander on indoor air quality, you’ll need some specialized help now and then. That’s why it’s always a good idea to schedule regular HVAC maintenance with EasyBreezy A/C, recommended at least twice a year for pet owners.  

During our routine inspections, we’ll make sure that your HVAC system is cleaned carefully, and we’ll identify any issues that should be resolved quickly. A checkup helps keep your HVAC system working smoothly, keeps your system running longer, and saves you money!

Anyways, if you need help seeing the problem clearly or none of these tips helped you solve your AC problem, please feel free to contact us for more information!

How Your Home’s Temperature Affects Your Sleep Quality And Mood

by Cris Scott
Home » New AC Westchase

good mood with a new AC

We all know that spending time outdoors in the sun is generally good for our overall health and well-being. And luckily for us, living in the Tampa Bay area, Florida, provides us with nearly limitless opportunities to spend time outdoors soaking up the sun in any number of activities. But you have also probably experienced the grumpiness that accompanies someone who has spent too much time outdoors on a hot day.

As it turns out this shift in mood is no coincidence as temperature, especially heat, has a significant impact on our overall mood and the quality of sleep that we get. Here is what you should know about your home’s temperature, air quality and how it can affect your overall mood and sleep quality:

 

Temperature And Sleep Quality

In order to get good quality sleep each night our bodies need to be at a comfortable temperature – not too hot or too cold. Generally speaking, it is estimated that the best temperature for your thermostat to be set at for optimal sleep is between 60- and 67-degrees Fahrenheit. Obviously, the temperatures in Florida are usually much higher than this almost all year long. If your air conditioning system breaks down on a day that the temperature outside is above the optimal range for sleep, the temperature on the inside of your home will begin to rise quickly.

If the temperature in your home is not within the range needed for optimal sleep, it could impact the quality of your sleep so much that you would actually need 2 more hours of sleep than usual to feel just as rested as any other night. This means it is important for your air conditioning unit to be working properly to keep your home cool and allow you to get a good night’s sleep every night.

Temperature And Mood

A combination of exposure to excessive heat and the resulting effects it has on getting a restful night’s sleep leads to a decrease in mood. The impact heat has on our mood is a natural effect of being uncomfortable and tired. Anytime we are uncomfortable or tired, we are naturally more sensitive, edgy, and grumpy. This shift in our mood in combination with being uncomfortable and tired can also lead us to make decisions we wouldn’t normally make such as acting out violently or consuming more alcohol than usual.

If your home’s air conditioning system breaks down, especially on one of our warmer and more humid spring or summer days, you will surely notice the affects the heat has on yourself and your family within a very short period of time.

Don’t let your home’s temperature affect the quality of sleep you get each night or your overall mood. Contact EasyBreezy A/C today to schedule your next AC maintenance check-up, or to schedule any necessary repairs. We will make sure your air conditioning system is operating at its maximum efficiency to ensure a comfortable home for you and your family.
