FAQs
What HVAC services do you provide in Hixson?
We offer comprehensive heating and air-conditioning solutions tailored to Hixson homeowners and small businesses. Our services include new system design and installation, furnace and air-conditioner replacement, seasonal tune-ups, preventive maintenance plans, ductwork repair and sealing, indoor air-quality upgrades (air purifiers, humidifiers, dehumidifiers), smart thermostat installation, and full diagnostic and repair service for all major HVAC brands.
How often should I schedule maintenance for my heating and cooling system?
For best performance and manufacturer warranty compliance, we recommend two professional tune-ups each year—one in early spring for your air conditioner and one in early fall for your furnace or heat pump. Regular maintenance keeps efficiency high, extends equipment life, reduces the likelihood of breakdowns during extreme weather, and allows us to catch minor issues before they become expensive repairs.
What are the advantages of installing a programmable or smart thermostat?
A programmable or Wi-Fi–enabled thermostat lets you create temperature schedules that match your lifestyle, automatically lowering heating or cooling output when you’re away or asleep. In Hixson’s variable climate, this can cut energy usage by 10–15 % without sacrificing comfort. Smart models also provide remote control from your phone, energy-use reporting, maintenance reminders, and adaptive learning to fine-tune settings for maximum savings.
How can I improve my indoor air quality?
Start with regular filter changes—every 30–60 days during peak season in Hixson’s pollen-heavy spring and humid summers. We also offer high-MERV pleated filters, whole-home media cleaners, UV germicidal lamps to neutralize mold and bacteria in the air handler, and balanced ventilation systems that bring in fresh air while exhausting stale indoor air. For persistent humidity issues, a whole-home dehumidifier keeps relative humidity around 45 %, preventing mold growth and making your home feel cooler.
Do you provide 24/7 emergency HVAC repairs in Hixson?
Yes. Heating or AC failures rarely happen at convenient times, so our technicians are on call around the clock, including weekends and holidays. We arrive with fully stocked service vehicles, diagnose the problem quickly, and explain repair options and pricing upfront. Most common parts are on-hand, allowing us to restore your comfort in a single visit.
How can I reduce energy bills while keeping my home comfortable?
Combine routine maintenance and smart usage practices: (1) keep filters clean; (2) seal and insulate ductwork—up to 30 % of conditioned air can escape through leaks; (3) upgrade to a high-efficiency heat pump or AC with a SEER2 rating of 16 or higher; (4) install a programmable thermostat; (5) seal gaps around windows and doors; and (6) use ceiling fans to circulate air so you can raise the thermostat by 2–3 °F in summer without feeling warmer. We offer free home-energy evaluations to identify the most cost-effective upgrades for Hixson homes.
