FAQs
What types of HVAC systems do you install and service in the Dayton area?
We work with all major residential and light-commercial heating and cooling technologies found throughout Dayton, including high-efficiency gas furnaces, heat pumps, central air conditioners, ductless mini-splits, rooftop packaged units, and smart zoning controls. Our technicians are factory-trained on brands such as Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, and Daikin, so whether you need a new installation, seasonal maintenance, or a complex repair, we have the expertise and OEM parts to get the job done right.
How often should I replace my air filters to maintain good indoor air quality?
Most Dayton homeowners who use standard 1-inch pleated filters should replace them every 60–90 days. If you have pets, allergies, or run your system continuously during humid summers and cold winters, check the filter monthly and change it at least every 30–45 days. High-MERV media filters (4–5 inches thick) can last 6–12 months but should still be inspected quarterly. Clean filters keep airflow strong, reduce energy consumption by up to 15 percent, and prevent dust, pollen, and mold spores from recirculating in your living spaces.
What are the signs that my thermostat or zoning controls need to be repaired or upgraded?
Uneven room temperatures, short cycling, frequent system restarts, and unresponsive touchscreens or dial settings are common indicators. If your thermostat is more than 10 years old, it may not communicate efficiently with today’s high-SEER air conditioners and variable-speed furnaces. Upgrading to a Wi-Fi or smart thermostat can cut heating and cooling costs by 8–10 percent and allow remote scheduling, energy-usage reports, and integration with voice assistants. We also install motorized dampers and zone panels to give multi-level Dayton homes customized comfort in each area.
How can I improve ventilation in my older Dayton home without major renovations?
Start with simple steps: run bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans regularly, keep interior doors open for cross-flow, and use ceiling fans to disperse conditioned air. For a bigger boost, we can install a heat-recovery ventilator (HRV) or energy-recovery ventilator (ERV) that quietly exchanges stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while capturing up to 80 percent of the heating or cooling energy. These units mount in your attic or basement and tie into existing ductwork, providing balanced ventilation without tearing into walls or adding bulky window units.
Do you offer emergency heating and cooling repairs, and how quickly can you reach my Dayton property?
Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency service across Montgomery, Greene, and Miami counties. Calls received before 10 p.m. are typically attended within 2–3 hours; late-night calls are prioritized by severity and weather conditions but usually within 4 hours. Our fully stocked service vans carry common blower motors, capacitors, ignitors, and refrigerant to fix 85 percent of breakdowns on the first visit. There are no overtime charges for maintenance-plan members.
Are there energy-efficiency incentives or rebates available in Dayton for upgrading my HVAC equipment?
Absolutely. DP&L (AES Ohio) and Columbia Gas routinely offer rebates ranging from $200 to $600 for Energy Star certified furnaces, heat pumps, and smart thermostats. The federal Inflation Reduction Act also provides tax credits of up to 30 percent (maximum $2,000) for qualifying high-efficiency heat pumps and up to $600 for advanced air-sealing and ventilation improvements installed between 2023 and 2032. We handle all paperwork, verify model eligibility, and apply the rebate as an instant discount whenever possible.
