Heating & Cooling Tips
Many digital homes thermostats are battery powered. Batteries will need to be replaced from time to time. Dead batteries in your digital thermostat can leave you with no heat or air.
Change your furnace filter at the beginning of each season and more often if needed. This will affect your air conditioner’s efficiency as well.
Check for and seal any leaks around windows, doors, and ductwork to prevent heat loss in winter and keep cool air inside during summer.
Have your heating system inspected in fall and your AC in spring to ensure they’re ready for peak seasons.
