Question 4

What capacity heating/cooling system is suitable for my needs?

Accepted Answer

What capacity heating/cooling system is suitable for my needs? The ideal system size depends on various factors specific to your home; there's no universal solution.
Factors to consider include the square footage of your home, whether it's multi-story, its level of insulation, and other relevant considerations.
A common error is purchasing a system that is too large, resulting in inefficiency and increased utility costs, demonstrating that larger doesn't always equate to better performance. Conversely, a system that is too small will struggle to adequately heat or cool your home.

Question 5

How often should I replace the filter for my heating/cooling system?

Accepted Answer

The frequency of filter replacement for your heating/cooling system can vary depending on several factors. Generally, it is recommended to check and replace the filter every 1 to 3 months. However, if you have pets that shed, smoke in your home, or if the system is used more frequently, the filter may need to be replaced more often. Additionally, different seasons can impact the lifespan of your filter, with more frequent replacement often necessary during heavy usage periods like summer or winter. Cheaper filters typically do not last as long as more expensive, pleated filters. At Cool Tech Heating and Cooling, we recommend regular inspections and maintenance to ensure the optimal performance and longevity of your heating/cooling system. If you have specific concerns or questions about filter replacement, our experienced technicians are here to help and provide personalized recommendations for your unique situation.
