FAQs

How often should I change my HVAC system's air filters?

For optimal performance and air quality, you should change your HVAC system's air filters every 1 to 3 months. This frequency can vary depending on factors such as the type of filter, household pets, and indoor air quality. Regular replacement helps maintain system efficiency and improves indoor air quality.

What are the signs that my HVAC system needs maintenance?

Common signs that your HVAC system needs maintenance include unusual noises, uneven heating or cooling, increased energy bills, and poor airflow. Regular maintenance can prevent these issues and extend the lifespan of your system. It's recommended to have your HVAC system inspected at least once a year by a professional.

How can I improve indoor air quality in my home?

To improve indoor air quality, ensure regular replacement of air filters, maintain clean ductwork, use air purifiers, control humidity levels, and ensure proper ventilation. Houseplants can also help purify air naturally. Additionally, regular maintenance of HVAC systems plays a crucial role in maintaining indoor air quality.

What is the difference between HEPA filters and regular air filters?

HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are designed to trap small particles such as dust, pollen, and mold spores, with an efficiency of 99.97% for particles as small as 0.3 microns. Regular air filters, while effective for larger particles, do not offer the same level of filtration. HEPA filters are often used in environments where air quality is critical, such as hospitals and laboratories.

Why is my HVAC system making loud noises?

Loud noises from your HVAC system could indicate a variety of issues, including loose parts, debris in the system, a failing motor, or issues with the blower fan. It's important to address these noises promptly to avoid further damage. Contact a professional technician to diagnose and fix the problem.

What is the importance of proper ventilation in indoor air quality?

Proper ventilation is crucial for maintaining good indoor air quality as it helps remove pollutants, excess moisture, and odors from indoor spaces. It also brings in fresh outdoor air, reduces humidity, prevents mold growth, and can improve overall health and comfort. Ensuring adequate ventilation can significantly enhance the air quality within your home or workplace.

Kirk was fantastic and explained everything g that was going on with the units and what I should be on the look out for and recommended options for me to make it better for the elements. Would definitely recommend him for further appointments

Our landlord set up to have pmi on our unit. Dexter Larick came out & was very informative & let me know everything he was doing every step of the way. He recommended different things to help our unit run more smoothly also.

Melissa F.

Just had my HVAC unit looked at by Patrick M. Professional guy and well informed about the unit and what I could do to prevent mold spores and informed us about the compressor that starts the fan. These guys are amazing! HEP has helped me so much and I hope they continue to help for years to come.

**Review for John Smith - HVAC Technician** I had a fantastic experience with John Smith when he came out to give me an estimate on a mini-split system for my home. John was punctual, professional, and very knowledgeable about the product options. He took the time to assess my space thoroughly and answered all of my questions with clarity. His transparent pricing and detailed explanation of the installation process made me feel confident about the decision I needed to make. I appreciated his friendly demeanor and the care he took in ensuring I understood my options. Overall, I highly recommend John for any HVAC needs. His expertise and customer service truly stand out!

Dexter showed up 10 minutes early and did the work the fast he was very helpful in explaining what was wrong and what type of maintenance needed to make sure my family has a functioning HVAC system this winter !!

Kirk was excellent, on time, efficient, and very much appreciated; will definitely work with HEP again! I do need to add to this review (still keeping at 5 stars because the company has always been good about making things right if/when anything went a bit wrong and are always excellent at communicating about appointments, etc.). Of course, with me, nothing can ever be simple...so my system was not typical, and there were still issues of which we were not aware the night I wrote this review. But, as mentioned, HEP did make sure all was corrected, and the system is working as it should now. A big THANK YOU to Wendell Patton for his thorough analysis of my systems and knowledge of how to set them up correctly -- you are very much appreciated, Wendell! I recommend Wendell for a big raise or Christmas bonus (or both!), as the company may see fit... :-)
