FAQs
What types of HVAC systems do you service in Strawberry Plains?
We install, repair, and maintain all major residential and light-commercial heating and cooling systems used in Strawberry Plains, including high-efficiency gas furnaces, heat pumps, central air conditioners, ductless mini-splits, and packaged rooftop units. Our technicians are factory-trained on equipment from leading manufacturers (Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, and more), so whether you have a traditional split system or the latest variable-speed inverter technology, we can keep it running at peak performance.
How often should I replace my air filters to maintain good indoor air quality?
In the Tennessee Valley’s pollen-rich environment, we recommend checking 1-inch disposable filters every 30 days and replacing them at least every 60 days. High-efficiency pleated filters (MERV 8–13) typically last up to 90 days, while 4- to 5-inch media cartridges can go 6–12 months. If you have pets, allergies, or ongoing construction dust, shorten those intervals. A clean filter not only improves air quality but also lowers energy bills by allowing proper airflow through your system.
What are the advantages of installing a programmable or smart thermostat?
A programmable or Wi-Fi smart thermostat lets you automatically adjust temperature settings based on your daily schedule, saving 10-15 % on annual utility costs. Smart models learn your preferences, provide remote control from your phone, and deliver energy-use reports. Some can even alert you to maintenance issues, integrate with voice assistants, and qualify for local utility rebates available in Jefferson and Knox counties.
How can I tell if my home needs improved ventilation?
Warning signs include persistent odors, excessive condensation on windows, visible mold growth, or occupants experiencing frequent headaches or allergies. Homes built after 2000 are often tighter for energy efficiency, trapping pollutants inside. We offer free airflow assessments that measure CO₂ levels, humidity, and airborne particulates to determine if solutions like energy-recovery ventilators (ERVs), exhaust fans, or dedicated fresh-air intakes are needed.
Do you provide indoor air quality solutions such as air purifiers or humidity control?
Yes. We install whole-home media air cleaners, HEPA bypass filters, UV-C germicidal lamps, and bipolar ionization systems that eliminate up to 99 % of airborne allergens, bacteria, and viruses. For humidity, we offer central dehumidifiers for muggy Strawberry Plains summers and steam humidifiers for dry winter air. These add-ons integrate with your existing ductwork and are backed by manufacturer warranties and our 100 % satisfaction guarantee.
What kind of maintenance plan do you recommend for keeping my HVAC system efficient and under warranty?
Our Precision Tune-Up Plan includes two visits per year—one in spring for cooling, one in fall for heating. Each visit covers coil cleaning, refrigerant checks, electrical testing, airflow adjustments, filter replacement, and safety inspections. Members receive priority scheduling, no overtime fees, and a 15 % discount on repairs. Regular maintenance can extend equipment life by 5–10 years and is required by most manufacturers to keep parts warranties valid.
