You probably have a list of various improvements and other jobs to get done on your house during the coming 12 months. We don\u2019t want to burden you with extra jobs, so we have some suggestions for improving your heating and cooling system that aren\u2019t tough to take care of: you only need to give our technicians a call and we\u2019ll handle it from there!<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>Arrange for Annual Cooling and Heating Maintenance<\/h3>\n<p>Too many people skip out on the yearly inspections and tune-ups that are necessary for their heating and cooling system. This is a mistake, since it allows ACs and heaters to decline faster, leading to extra repairs, inefficient performance, and early replacements. Sign up for our <a href=\"\/maintenance-program\">Proactive Service Agreement<\/a> so you\u2019ll have the regular maintenance visits you need every year\u2014and a better HVAC system over all.<\/p>\n<h3>Have the Ductwork Tested<\/h3>\n<p>You may have leaky air ducts and not even realize it. Those leaks, no matter how small they are, can cost you a great deal in wasted energy: up to 30% of the air you pay to heat and cool will escape through these gaps and holes. Our technicians can <a href=\"\/indoor-air-quality\/duct-testing\">test your ductwork<\/a> to find if it needs repair work\u2014and they\u2019ll handle the repairs as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Upgrade Outdated Thermostats<\/h3>\n<p>Look over the thermostat(s) in your house. Have you had them for more than 10 years? Are they manual models or digital models without programming features? If the answer to either question is <em>yes<\/em>, then it\u2019s time to <a href=\"\/air-conditioning\/thermostats\">replace the thermostats with new technology<\/a>. At the very least, you should have programmable thermostats so you can better plan out how your home is heated and cooled. But there are some superb high-tech options to consider as well, such as \u201csmart\u201d thermostats that develop their own energy-saving programming, and Wireless thermostats with remote control functions and ease of placement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Hall\u2019s Heating, Air Conditioning &amp; Refrigeration provides excellent HVAC services in Hauhgton, LA.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2016 is already here.
