• Massachusetts AC Maintenance

  When possible, we always suggest preventing problems before they develop into serious issues. Just like your car, routine AC maintenance can help keep your air conditioning system running smoothly and efficiently, which is especially important at the beginning of the summer season, in which most issues occur during the first of operation. It’s also required by most manufacturers to maintain your system’s warranty.

  Regular air conditioner maintenance will keep you cool both this season and through summers to come. This air conditioner service includes:

  • Changing your filters
  • Visually inspecting your entire HVAC system
  • Removing dust and debris that can hamper your system’s functioning
  • Checking each component of your AC to ensure it works as it was designed to

  A point of clarification: We often hear from our customers that they’ve been told their system needs to be “recharged” each year. This comes from the common misconception that it is normal for AC systems to lose or “burn off” refrigerant through use. Not so, and in fact, if a properly working system is a completely closed-loop and should never need to be recharged unless there is a leak. If the leaking component is not repaired or replaced, a system will continue to leak refrigerant. This is not normal operation.

• Massachusetts Air Conditioning Installation

  While it’s true that an air conditioning system will keep your home cool, it also has a much more important job in keeping you comfortable. As the name suggests, an air conditioner “conditions” the air by removing humidity from the air indoors. This is why when shopping for a new air conditioning system, it’s important to consider more than just the equipment itself. Even a high-end system if installed improperly will have a hard time circulating the air, removing humidity, and keeping you cool when you need it most.

  At Heritage, we maintain a dedicated team of AC installation experts who bring with them the knowledge and certification in almost every residential make and model on the market. We also handle any permits required by your town so you can rest assured that you’re receiving a job done right.

• Lower Your Cooling Costs with Tips from the Experts at Heritage

  There’s nothing quite like walking into a cool home when the weather is hot and humid. However, the relief your AC offers often comes with hefty energy bills. Here are a few tips to keep your cooling costs down from our cooling experts.

  • Regular air filter replacement. Ensure you change your air conditioner’s filter at least every 90 days. This simple step enhances airflow and optimizes efficiency, helping save on energy consumption.
  • Adjust your home’s temperature. If you’re not home during the day, consider bumping the temperature up by a degree or two. This minor adjustment can yield significant energy savings. Additionally, you can improve the temperature room to room by using ceiling fans to help circulate cool air.
  • Keep those windows covered. By keeping your windows covered during the peak heat hours of the day, you can prevent extra heat from creeping into your living space. Keeping blinds and curtains closed reduces the workload on your air conditioner, resulting in reduced energy consumption.
  • Seal leaks in your windows and doors. Don’t let precious cool air escape through gaps around windows and doors. Seal these openings to keep the cool air in and the heat out.
  • Schedule AC Maintenance. If your air conditioning system isn’t operating at peak efficiency schedule a cooling service from Heritage Home Service. Our experienced technicians will thoroughly inspect your cooling system, rectifying any issues that could potentially raise your energy bills before they become a major concern.
