Why Tax Credits and Rebates Are Crucial for Homeowners Right Now

Monday, October 28th, 2024

Things are more expensive than they ever have been, or at least it feels like that a lot of the time. Back in the day, you might have been able to get a powerful HVAC system for just a few hundred dollars, and run it on gas or electricity that cost a fraction of what it does today. But with higher demand on the power grid or gas grid, means higher prices to pay per month. And systems aren’t cheap today either.

Why Does Energy Efficiency Matter So Much?

Monday, January 17th, 2022

Back in the day, the most important aspect of HVAC systems was centered on how well they worked. You could have a wood-burning furnace but as long as that baby burned bright and kept you warm, it didn’t matter how much fuel was consumed. Soon, we began to learn about how much fuel we were using to power all of our homes, and prices of these materials began to rise. Wood-burning heaters turned out to be some of the most inefficient heating systems in the world, and we turned to better materials like electricity and gas.

Now, prices are on the rise again and it’s up to us to use as little fuel and energy as possible for the most amount of heat. This will depend heavily on the type of heating installation in Lafayette, CA that you decide to invest in. Let’s talk about why your next heater and its efficiency are so important.

Which Is the Most Energy Efficient Heater?

Monday, December 6th, 2021

When investing in a heating installation in Orinda, CA, energy efficiency is the most important measurement to take into account. After all, we don’t deal with the kinds of cold temperatures that other areas of the country do, which means we want our heating systems to run while costing as little as possible. The more energy-efficient your heating system is, the less you have to pay each and every month.

Although, there’s one small problem. There are different types of heating systems that all run in very different ways. How are you supposed to tell which one is the most energy-efficient and effective enough for your home if they all work so differently?

That’s what this blog post is about. We’ll touch on three distinct heating systems: gas furnaces, electric furnaces, and heat pumps, and talk about which one might be the best—and most energy-efficient—choice for your house.

Curb Emissions and Save Money With a Heat Pump

Monday, October 25th, 2021

It’s no secret that our consumption of electricity at home has dramatically increased over the past few decades. A home in the 1980s used far less electricity than a home today, now that we have access to so many helpful and nifty devices that keep our lives productive, fun, and healthy. Your HVAC system is part of that list of appliances, and many HVAC systems run competently on electricity to the point where we’re seeing a bit of an energy revolution in the HVAC industry.

Heat pumps are one of the newest and most popular types of heating systems in the country. Our team provides high-quality heating installation in Lafeyette, CA, including the complete setup of heat pump systems.
