Reduce your HVAC Carbon Footprint
In our climate, we need our HVAC system to operate very differently depending on the time of year. In the summer we need to use air conditioners and try to limit the amount of heat that comes into our homes. In the winter, we try to maximize heat and use a furnace, boiler or heat pump to warm us up.
Prepare air conditioner for winter
Turn off the power to the condenser unit before beginning. Vacuum debris from the exterior fins using a soft brush attachment, and gently straighten any bent fins using gentle pressure from a butter knife.
Furnace Maintenance
So, when is the best time to take care of your annual furnace maintenance? Our suggestion: shortly before you expect to need your furnace. The end of summer or early fall will usually give you enough time to make sure everything is working as it should and to fix anything that needs fixing, so your furnace is ready when the winter chill kicks in.
What To Do When Your Air Conditioning Breaks Down During A Heatwave
The dog days of summer can be stifling, and the heatwave makes it even more unbearable. However, nothing can send shivers down your spine faster than your air conditioning unit breaking down amidst a heatwave. It's the stuff of nightmares, leaving you sweating and...
Air Conditioner hot to touch
You’ll be able to tell that the condenser fan motor is the problem by simply placing your hand on the top of your unit. It will be really hot to the touch it the fan isn’t working properly due to the motor overheating.
Can the air conditioner be too cold?
Turning on your air conditioner (AC) after breaking a sweat all day can feel so refreshing, especially during the summer. However, sometimes you can get more than you bargained for with a malfunctioning AC.
Corporate Cooling
Many cooling applications use water as a medium to absorb heat, because water has a high boiling point and high specific heat. There are many different ways to set up an industrial cooling system, but the three basic types can be summarized by examining how cooling water is used in each system.
HVAC COOLING SYSTEMS FOR DATA CENTERS
Ensure that the data center has the required air conditioning equipment to adequately cool the systems. Install an automatic alarm system to notify personnel if temperature or humidity exceeds the specified thresholds.
Solar Powered Air Conditioners
In simple terms, solar ACs use solar panels to power the air conditioning system. Solar panels collect energy from the sun. They convert this energy into power. That power either goes directly to the air conditioner or to a battery where it’s stored until the AC needs it.
