Zone Home Solutions

It is best to call them. I bought a plan that gives me 2 tune ups for the year.

Chetan, We're happy to come out at no charge for a termite inspection. If a termite clearance letter, or WIIR is needed for a home closing, our charge is $75. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!

There’s a big price difference initially between budget systems and newer high efficiency systems. Especially when combined with 0% financing only available with high efficiency systems, the energy savings often make them a better value for our homeowners. Of course, the energy savings will a while to add up, so a big consideration when choosing is how long you plan to be in the home. In addition, a pricier system will be much quieter and cool more evenly. Our proposal includes a detailed financial comparison between systems so that you can choose the one that is the best fit for you.

There are many factors to consider when thinking about repairing or replacing your HVAC equipment. These factors include the age of your unit, the comfort of your home, the cost of repairs, the frequency of repairs, and more. Keep in mind that any system that is more than 10 years old is nearing the end of its high efficiency life. A qualified technician will help you compare whether it is more advantageous for you to keep your current system or replace it with a newer one.

Did you know that the majority of HVAC system failures and issues are the result of clogged and dirty air filters? Isn’t it crazy that something so simple and small can have such a large effect on your home? Well, that just goes to show how important it is to stay on top of your air filters. Some people only need to change them out every 3-12 months while others need to change them out every month.  The frequency will depend on the number of pets and people in your home, your indoor air quality, the type of filter, and more. We suggest checking on your air filters once a month and then deciding whether they need to be changed out.

Absolutely. An indoor air quality test can determine the type of pollutants in your home’s air. Air purification systems that attach to your HVAC system can help with unpleasant odors, allergies, mold, bacteria, viruses, and other impurities in your home.  Carrier’s Infinity Air Purifier has even proved to kill 99% of Coronavirus trapped in its filter. If dry wintertime air makes you miserable, we can help! A humidifier installed in your HVAC system will help with sore throats, chapped lips, itchy skin and sinus problems.

Simply put, no.  When it comes to size, the most important consideration is getting the right size for your home based on square footage, layout, orientation and your lifestyle. A system that is too big will operate on short cycles, starting and stopping more frequently. Oversized systems don’t run long enough to adequately dehumidify your home. In an area like metro Atlanta, with hot & humid summers, this can lead to an unhealthy and expensive mold problem. A system that is too small will run continuously and not properly cool your home on hot days. Both issues cause excessive wear and tear, shortening the life of your system and waste energy. According to Energy Star, 70% of installed residential cooling systems suffer from improper airflow. Although a heat loss-gain calculation, or load calculation is critical, most HVAC companies just prepare a quote based on the size of the current system.

We recommend twice a year fall/winter & spring /summer. Regardless of the HVAC system you have, semi-annual maintenance ensures optimum efficiency of the unit and helps catch potential breakdowns. It’s one of few services that can actually save you more money than it cost.

We do not. When we say pest control, we work primarily with the removal and control of bugs.

Dunno....call them and ask.
