Keeping Your Home Comfortable Year-Round

At Highlands Quality Climate Control, we understand the importance of a well-functioning HVAC system. Whether you’re in Derry, Johnstown, Latrobe, Ligonier, Loyalhanna, or New Derry, PA, maintaining your heating and cooling system is crucial for year-round comfort. Here are some valuable tips to help you get the most out of your HVAC system:

1. Regular Maintenance is Key

Scheduling regular maintenance checks for your air conditioner and heating system can prevent costly repairs down the line. Aim for bi-annual inspections – one in spring for your AC and one in fall for your heating system.

2. Change Your Filters

One of the simplest yet most effective ways to maintain your HVAC system is to change your air filters regularly. This improves air quality and helps your system run more efficiently.

3. Consider Upgrading to a Smart Thermostat

Smart thermostats can significantly improve your home’s energy efficiency by automatically adjusting temperatures based on your schedule and preferences.

4. Don’t Ignore Strange Noises

If you hear unusual sounds coming from your AC or heating unit, don’t wait to call for service. Early intervention can prevent minor issues from becoming major problems.

5. Know When It’s Time for Replacement

While regular maintenance can extend the life of your HVAC system, eventually, replacement becomes necessary. Here are signs it might be time:

• Your system is more than 10-15 years old
• Frequent repairs are needed
• Energy bills are steadily increasing
• Uneven heating or cooling throughout your home

Remember, Highlands Quality Climate Control is here to help with all your HVAC needs, from installation to repair and maintenance. Don’t hesitate to reach out for professional assistance in keeping your home comfortable all year long.
