1. What is the best temperature to set my thermostat on?
Between 78 and 80 are the most common settings. Set the thermostat as high as
you can while still being comfortable to minimize energy usage. According to
SRP you can add 3% to your electric bill for every degree that you set your
thermostat below 80.
2. How often should I change my filter?
During the summer time when your Air Conditioner is running a large percentage
of the time you should change your filter once a month. This includes pleated
filters that claim to be 3 month filters. During the mild months use your best
judgment.
3. What kind of filters do you recommend?
We recommend pleated media filters. The pleats create a much larger surface area
for filtration. These filters can be found at any home improvement store or hardware
store.
4. What is the best brand of Air Conditioner out there?
We are proud to offer Trane products to our customers.
Over the years we have installed and serviced many Trane
units and through this experience we are convinced that
Trane absolutely manufacters the highest quality products.
5. How often should I have my unit serviced?
All air conditioning systems should be serviced twice a
year. Once in the spring time before the hot summer months,
and once in the fall before our winter begins.
6. How often should I have Freon added to my air conditioner?
Having Freon added to your system should not be a routine
occurrence, this is a sign of a definite problem. Freon
should only be added if there is a leak in the system.
All Freon leaks should be evaluated to determine if the
leak is repairable.
