Innovations in Heating and Cooling

It’s not a secret that your car’s engine works best at a warm temperature. But that heat needs to go somewhere. This is the reason why radiators are in.

A cooling system makes use of refrigerant, fans and ductwork to distribute air. A heating system uses an energy source like oil or gas to warm the air.

Variable-Speed Technology

When it comes to heating and cooling variable speed technology is one of the most important innovations in the past few years. The blower motors in gas furnaces and air handlers use this technology to control the airflow throughout your house. This technology is designed for a more uniform distribution of air throughout your home, which reduces hot and cold areas.

The concept behind variable speed technology is to ensure that the system’s output is in line to the needs of your home’s energy. Most people would not drive their car in a single gear. Instead, they would shift gears based on the requirements of the vehicle or road conditions. The same principle applies in your home. Variable speed systems offer homeowners and contractors with a range of benefits, including savings on energy costs, lower noise levels, better indoor air quality, and the possibility for utility company rebates.

Variable-speed technology allows your system to work more efficiently during light load conditions. This is because the traditional systems use a setpoint, reaching the desired temperature before cycling off. The system will cycle back on when the temperature inside your home is at the desired comfort level. This constant cycling expends an enormous amount of energy, particularly when the system is running at full capacity.

With a variable-speed system the compressor is operating at a lower capacity for long time periods and uses less energy. The result is your system can save up to 30% on energy costs.

The use of variable speed technology combination with other energy-saving improvements such as zoning systems or smart controls can improve the effectiveness and performance of your system. Consult our team of experts to determine if a system with variable speed technology and Greenspeed Intelligence is the right choice for your home.

We can help you make the right decision for your home by describing the advantages of a system using variable-speed technology, and how it can be used with other energy efficient products to deliver optimal results. Our licensed HVAC professionals can guide you through the process of choosing the right system.

Wi-Fi(r) Controls

Wireless smart thermostats allow homeowners to have more control over their HVAC systems while reducing energy bills and enhancing comfort. They use wireless technology to connect to smartphones or computers giving users the ability to monitor and alter the temperature of their home from afar. Depending on the model the devices are able to learn household patterns and automatically alter schedules to reduce energy consumption when no one is home or increase comfort when residents are home.

Smart thermostats are simple to use and let you check your system at any time. They can tell when you are away from your home and go into an energy-saving “Away” mode to save on your electric bill. Then, once you are back at home, they will return to the normal ‘Home’ setting for optimal comfort.

The Wi-Fi(r), controls are more advanced than standard programmable thermostats and come with additional convenience features, such as emails, remote system monitoring and a customizable web portal that acts as your thermostat. They can also be used to control multiple zones from a single device. They are perfect for managing a rental or vacation home from afar.

A programmable thermostat can be programmed to adjust the temperature at different times of the day to provide the best comfort for homeowners as well as renters. It can be difficult to keep up with the scheduling of a programmable thermometer, especially with busy schedules and kids’ activities. Smart thermostats equipped with sensors track room occupancy, indoor temperatures, and outdoor humidity to monitor real-time conditions. It also monitors energy consumption in order to determine whether cooling or heating is required and makes the necessary adjustments.

The Wi-Fi(r) control’s sensors and intelligent programming can dramatically reduce your home’s energy consumption by 10 percent or more. They won’t just cut your energy bills but aid in reducing your carbon footprint and help to improve the environment.

Energy START(r) Certification

ENERGY STAR is one of the most well-known and widely recognized labels in the country. It’s that little blue label you see on your fridge, light bulbs and other appliances. When you purchase items bearing the ENERGY STAR logo, you know that they’ve been independently tested and certified to meet stringent energy efficiency standards and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The same standards that are applicable to individual products can also be applied to whole buildings. To earn the ENERGY STAR certification buildings must show at least 15% higher performance than the ASHRAE 90.1-2010 (or the state building code that it is permitted). The performance benchmark is based on a number factors that affect energy consumption in relation to weather conditions and occupancy. It also takes into consideration the size and the type of cooling and heating systems.

To qualify for ENERGY STAR certification, a structure must be verified by an HERS Rater. The HERS Rater inspects the insulation, air barrier, and HVAC equipment to ensure that they are installed and sized correctly. The Rater also performs detailed inspections of duct and ventilation leakage.

These actions will aid homeowners in saving energy and money while also safeguarding their health and the environment. This is what makes ENERGY STAR certification a great way to add value to any home or apartment building. Studies show that ENERGY STAR-certified homes and apartments tend to be rented or sold at higher prices.

In addition to delivering long-term cost savings in the long run, as well as a long-term savings, ENERGY STAR certified buildings have also been found to have lower operating costs than comparable non-certified buildings. They are also more comfortable to live in and use less energy. This is why the EPA estimates that ENERGY homes that are ENERGY STAR certified will save Americans over $39 billion in energy costs every year.

High-Efficiency Systems

A high-efficiency HVAC is more than an opportunity to lower your energy consumption. It’s also a fantastic option to cut carbon emissions and help the environment. High-efficiency systems use up to one third less energy than earlier models, which means lower costs for utilities. High-efficiency systems lower greenhouse gas emissions and utilize environmentally friendly, non-toxic refrigerants that are ozone-friendly.

It could cost more to install a new, high-efficiency system than an older model. However it will pay for itself over time through lower costs for energy and maintenance. It will also increase the value of your home which makes it easier to resell.

High-efficiency systems can provide a broad range of benefits, including enhanced comfort, quieter operation, and improved indoor air quality. Advanced filters, for instance are able to remove more harmful pollutants. These systems can enhance the comfort of occupants by providing precise temperature control, removing cold or hot patches.

Heating and cooling consume the most energy in an average home and account for 45percent of the household’s energy use. You will start saving money on your energy bills once you replace your old HVAC system with a more efficient unit. You can easily locate an Carrier furnace or AC that meets your requirements by determining the annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) rating. The higher the AFUE rating is, the more efficient the unit is.

Modern energy-efficient systems are capable of converting up to 98% of the energy in the fuel source directly into heat for your home. This is a vast improvement over traditional furnaces which operate at only 80percent AFUE, and wasting 35 percent of the fuel they use.

High-efficiency units also use less energy than their earlier counterparts, resulting in less greenhouse gas emissions, and also helping to conserve the environment. They can also make use of non-toxic refrigerants which eliminates the need to make chemicals that harm the ozone. Contractors and building owners can reduce the environmental impact of their projects by incorporating high-efficiency systems into green construction projects. These systems also help cut construction costs, making them a smart investment for both occupants and builders alike.
