There are many benefits to using a zoned climate system, but the most notable is the ability to save you money while using less energy. These systems allow for homes to keep certain “common” areas cooler or warmer while letting other areas remain at higher levels. This gives your system a break from attempting to climate control your entire home, using less energy, and increasing its efficiency.

In general, your home requires approximately 25 BTUs to control the climate of one square foot in your home. For a very rough estimate, multiply your square footage by 25 to get a general idea of how large a system you will need. It is important to note, however, that there are several factors that figure into determining the right size unit – including ceiling heights, type and quality of insulation, drafts, and ductwork seal quality to name a few. A consult with our trained technicians will give you the most accurate estimate on what you’ll need.

If you notice ice forming anywhere on your AC system, your first step must be to shut it off. It’s important to let your system defrost before any further inspection or repairs can be done. Once it has thawed, check to ensure your filter is clean and that there are no obstructions or debris around or inside the unit. If your unit freezes up again after cleaning and turning it back on, you will need to call for repairs.
