Atlanta's HVAC Experts

RS Andrews: Atlanta's HVAC Experts

Have you been considering whether your central heating, ventilation and air conditioning unit -- commonly referred to as a HVAC system -- needs to be replaced or repaired? As a resident of the greater Atlanta area, you know how the weather can go to extremes throughout the year and tax your system to its limits. Wise homeowners and businesses realize that if their existing HVAC is over fifteen years old, it will soon start costing more to maintain that to replace. Besides the money you potentially waste on high heating and air conditioning bills, the repair cost will begin to add up as parts need to be replaced and major overhauls done to the ventilation system. But don't worry, whether you need HVAC installation, HVAC maintenance, or HVAC service and repair, RS Andrews is the name Atlanta trusts for HVAC help.

The federal Energy Star classification rates new HVAC appliances based on testing to determine their overall energy efficiency. You can use this rating system to calculate how much you can potentially save on your power bills with a new HVAC installation. If the appliance you chose has a high enough rating, you could well be eligible to receive federal tax subsidies of up to $500 to offset the expense of your upgrade, and you may even qualify for local rebates from your utility company or state energy agency.

For newer HVAC installations, you can explore many options on the market that can save you money on your power bills and reduce the amount of HVAC service and repair that will be required to maintain your newer unit. By adding upgrades to your current system like heat pumps, two-chamber furnaces, air-to-heat exchangers -- known as HRVs -- and programmable thermostats, you can greatly increase your existing unit's energy efficiency and life expectancy.

Many Atlanta homes and businesses face indoor air quality issues as a result of our seasonal high humidity, which creates mold and mildew in both old and new HVAC systems. Professional HVAC specialists can help you determine strategies to neutralize irritating airborne particulates, either through filtration methods or by applying ultra-violet light technology to the cooling coils that keep them perptually free of contaminants. Whole house dehumidifiers can be installed as well, and such add-ons can make a dramatic difference in the amount of work required from your HVAC unit.

From the onset, you want to assure that you have access to skilled technicians who have been factory trained on your particular model, since there are many specific modifications required for different types of systems. It is always advisable to find a reputable HVAC dealer in the Atlanta area who offers guarantees on their work and service contracts to their customers that assure necessary seasonal maintenance is performed on a regular basis.
