Is Your Furnace Making This Sound?

November 14th, 2022

There are many noises a machine like a furnace can make. If it’s gently whirring in the distance while it provides your home with heat, or even if it clicks once to turn on, these are sounds that you shouldn’t be worried about. After all, a furnace needs to give you a sign that its working, and those can be good noises, as long as they’re not too loud.

However, there’s one noise we want to talk about today, and that’s booming. A booming furnace requires heater repair in Kalispell, MT, even if it still works efficiently. That booming sound is a particular kind of problem that could lead to safety issues down the line, or even a full breakdown if it’s neglected for long enough.

Let’s talk about a booming furnace. We’ll cover why this happens, the science behind it, and what you can do to stop it.

The Best Fit for an Air Purifier

October 3rd, 2022

We’ll be the first ones to tell you that not every home is going to be perfect for an air purifier. While they can’t really harm you, there are probably other things that certain homeowners need the money for than an air purifier. These systems are specifically designed to remove contaminants from the air, depending on the make and model of the system, and they operate in very efficient ways. Some homes might be better suited for an air filter, but the point we’re trying to make is that different homes need different solutions.

If your home is inundated with foul odors and people in it are constantly getting sick or feeling ill, then this might be the time to get an air purifier in Kalispell, MT.

Fall Is Perfect for Heater Maintenance

September 19th, 2022

September is here (and almost gone), which means we’re full steam ahead towards the rest of the fall season! It’s time to bust out the Halloween costume and send the kids back to school because the leaves are going to be changing colors and our schedules are likely to change.

This is good news for anyone who is trying to plan ahead. Unlike summer or winter, fall is a season where temperatures can be more mild and you’re not in dire need of assistance when it comes to your heating. Sure, if you wait long enough eventually it will get cold enough to warrant a heating emergency, but until then your heater isn’t going to be as needed. That’s why we recommend investing in heater maintenance in Kalispell, MT.

Maintenance is going to help your system last longer and perform better during this cold season. And down below, we’ve listed some reasons why fall is the best time to get it!

It Might Be Time to Go Ductless!

August 22nd, 2022

Ductless air conditioners are more common today than they have been in recent history. It’s not just because they’re some of the newest air conditioning and heating models on the market, but also due to other environmental factors like climate change, rising energy prices, and innovations that make them more convenient than other systems. That’s why we’d like to take some time today to talk about why your home might be perfect for our next ductless installation!

Ductless AC in Kalispell, MT is a great way to deal with our fluctuating temperatures each season. From chilly springs to hot falls, we can get a whole range of temperatures throughout the year and ductless heat pumps are designed specifically to deal with them.

Late AC Maintenance Is Still Worth It

August 8th, 2022

Air conditioning maintenance is a service that really comes to fruition when you get it done regularly. Your AC can more easily reach the 10-15 year lifespan, run efficiently, and even cool your home better with routine maintenance that’s scheduled every year.

However, nobody lives in a vacuum. Things happen in our lives that can bump into these kinds of purchases and simply jump to the front of the line in terms of priorities. Perhaps you’re planning for your daughter’s wedding, or you’ve got a recently broken-down car that needs to be replaced. These are important expenses that we understand take first priority.

So, if you were busy spending on important things and missed your chance for AC maintenance in Kalispell, MT, then don’t worry. Late maintenance is actually still just as effective as early maintenance, as long as you get it done in a yearly fashion. Keep reading to learn more!

7 Reasons to Change Your Air Filter

July 25th, 2022

Your air filter is a vital component to your air conditioning system. So vital, in fact, that we can think of seven reasons off the top of our heads that you should replace it every now and then. Not only does it heavily impact the effectiveness of your air conditioning unit, but it also seriously impacts the efficiency, your indoor air quality, and more. What we’re trying to say is that your air filter needs attention, perhaps more attention than you’d give the rest of the system!

See, the other benefit of an air filter is that it’s designed to be changed out by a homeowner. They’re relatively easy to inspect, clean, and replace. Other components in an air conditioning system are not that simple and require very specific training that only a professional goes through.

We urge everyone for the following reasons to change out their air filters, or at least call our team for air conditioning services in Kalispell, MT.
