About the services
- How often should a furnace be serviced?
- Annual maintenance before heating season is a common recommendation, along with regular filter changes based on the filter type and household conditions. Read the Furnace Repair and Replacement guide.
- Is it safe to run a furnace with a cracked heat exchanger?
- Many HVAC professionals advise against it, because a crack can allow combustion gases into the airstream. Follow your technician's safety guidance and keep CO alarms working. Read the Furnace Repair and Replacement guide.
- What size air conditioner do I need?
- The right size depends on your home's insulation, windows, orientation, air leakage and layout. A load calculation is the reliable way to determine it. Read the Air Conditioning Installation guide.
- Should I replace my furnace at the same time as my AC?
- Not always, but replacing them together can make matching easier. If the furnace is older, a contractor can explain the trade-offs of each approach. Read the Air Conditioning Installation guide.
- How often should an AC system be serviced?
- Many manufacturers and contractors recommend yearly maintenance, typically before cooling season, along with regular filter changes. Read the AC Tune-Ups and Maintenance guide.
- Can I clean my outdoor unit myself?
- Many homeowners gently rinse debris from the outside of the condenser with the power off. Internal cleaning and electrical work should be left to a technician. Read the AC Tune-Ups and Maintenance guide.
- Why is steam coming from my heat pump in winter?
- That's typically the defrost cycle melting frost from the outdoor coil. It's normal operation. Read the Heat Pumps guide.
- What is a dual-fuel system?
- A dual-fuel system pairs an electric heat pump with a gas furnace. The heat pump handles moderate weather and the furnace takes over when it is colder or when it's more economical. Read the Heat Pumps guide.
- Do I need a humidifier?
- In dry climates, some households add a whole-house humidifier for comfort. The right humidity level depends on outdoor temperatures and the home's construction. Read the Ductwork and Indoor Air Quality guide.
- Is duct cleaning necessary?
- It can help after construction, pest problems or visible contamination, but routine duct cleaning isn't always needed. Ask what problem it's meant to solve. Read the Ductwork and Indoor Air Quality guide.
- What is HVAC zoning?
- Zoning divides a home into areas with separate thermostats and dampers so each area can be heated or cooled independently. Read the Thermostats and Controls guide.
- Can I install a smart thermostat myself?
- Many people do, but compatibility and wiring vary. Heat pumps and multi-stage systems are more complex, and a technician can help avoid configuration problems. Read the Thermostats and Controls guide.
