Some air conditioning and heating problems can DOUBLE operating cost without reducing comfort.
Up to 80% of all air conditioning and heat pump failures could be eliminated if the problems that lead to the failure were corrected in a timely manner.
A "freon" (refrigerant) undercharge of only 10% can increase operating cost by almost 20%.
A dirty evaporator, condenser and blower could increase air conditioning or heat pump electrical usage by 50% or more.
Annual safety checks can eliminate dangerous problems that would compromise your family's safety.
