During the summer, much attention is paid to proper attic insulation, air conditioning unit inspections and coolant levels, along with putting your thermostat on an energy efficient cycle. However, cleaning your air ducts can often be an overlooked yet very important step in air conditioning effectiveness.

Highland Village TX air duct cleaning service from Southern Comfort & Mechanical is a vital part of keeping the air in your home not only clean, but flowing productively. An air duct system is a breeding ground for bacteria, animal dander, mold, and dust mites. These impurities can cause allergic reactions, breathing difficulties, infections and disease. Proper ventilation not only ensures the indoor air quality is up to stringent standards, but also removes smells, excess moisture, introduces outside air, removes bacteria, keeps air circulating throughout your home, and prevents stagnation.

Southern Comfort & Mechanical utilizes state-of-the-art air duct cleaning equipment to eliminate the contaminants in your home air duct structure that may be harmful to you, your family or your employees. According to McKinsey Quarterly, dirty coils and ducts use as much as 30% more energy than clean ones and the EPA ranks indoor air pollution among the top five health risks. Your Highland Village air conditioning company will help you eliminate the risk.

Southern Comfort & Mechanical uses Rotobrush^® Duct Cleaning Technology. Rotobrush^® cleans where others can’t. View the video for more information regarding this state-of-the-art technology.

Saving money and energy on your unoccupied home while you’re gone on summer vacation can alleviate some vacation expenses that add up quickly. Use these energy saving tips from your local Frisco TX air conditioning service experts.

Unplug electronic appliances that do not need to be on. Small amounts of electricity called phantom loads will be used while you are not using the appliances. Turn off all lights except for maybe a lamp or two to make it look like someone is home at night.

Double check your doors and windows are closed tight before you leave for vacation. Letting outside air in, even the smallest amount for a prolonged time can make the AC unit work more than it needs.

Pull curtains and shades on east and west windows in your home to help keep heat out. The morning and afternoon sun can add unnecessary heat to your home and cause your air conditioner to turn on when you may not want it to.

Program your thermostat to hold at a higher temperature than when you occupy your home. Do not turn off your ac unit altogether because you want minimal airflow. Set it at something that will turn on for a while at least once a day.

The most effective way to save money and energy while on vacation is to turn your water heater thermostat down to the lowest setting. Energy efficient water heater choices like this can help reduce wasted money and energy.
