Don’t Ignore Repair Needs for Your Commercial AC—Even in the Fall!

Monday, September 5th, 2016

September has arrived, and that means the official first day of fall is almost here. But that doesn’t mean that temperatures are going to abruptly start to cool off. If you own and operate a business in the area, you need to be extra cautious during this time of year that your commercial air conditioning system stays in peak shape. The AC has already gone through a great deal of strain during the summer, and the cumulative effect can cause the system to break down during a hot fall day. If you notice anything wrong with your building’s air conditioner, don’t ignore it just because the summer’s over. Call our commercial HVAC specialists right away for repairs.

Is It Better to Run the AC All Day Even When I’m Not Home?

Monday, July 4th, 2016

You’ve probably heard this advice before regarding the best way to run an air conditioning system: you should set your air conditioner to stay on all day (at a high temperature, such as the upper 70s) while you’re away from home, rather than leave it off and turn it on only when you get back home. The logic behind this piece of advice is that this 1) makes it easier to quickly cool down the house when you return, and 2) uses less energy, because an air conditioner drains more power at start-up than when running regularly.

But is this actually true?

No, it’s not. We’ll explain below.
