Too dry in the winter?

Dry air can cause dry skin, dry hair, chapped lips and itchy eyes. Not very comfortable. The right level of humidity can make your home more comfortable, and that’s the kind of ideal home environment we strive to have. Just the thing to keep your home in the middle, comfortable range is Trane Heating & Air Conditioning’s line of humidifiers. They are designed to work hand in hand with your central heating and air conditioning system to control humidity levels in your home and banish dry air. During the colder months, American Standard variable-speed furnaces deliver heat to your home without drying it out. Until the day someone invents a device that can control the weather, you’re at the mercy of your local climate with all of its storms, winds, and hot and cold flashes. But just because you can’t turn down the sun on a hot summer day doesn’t mean you’re not in control of your home. No matter what’s going on outside, it’ll be exactly how you want it inside.

Using a heat pump may save on energy cost in your home. Here are a few things that will help you decide if a heat pump (or HVAC System) is right for your home. Comfort is what makes a house a home. Comfort is the largest consideration in all homes. Therefore, keeping your home at the desired temperature will improve your comfort level. Heat Pump Systems are a great way to save energy, money and will guarantee your home a greater comfort. Heat Pumps are air conditioning systems that heat and cool your home, also known as HVAC Systems. HVAC Systems use electric energy to move the pre-existing heat. Believe it or not in cold weather there are still traces of heat. A heat pump takes the heat from the cold weather and pumps it into your home. In the heat of the summer an HVAC System acts as a conventional air conditioner by taking the heat from your home and pushing it outside and blowing cold air in. Heat pumps are also considered smart purchases because they filter and dehumidify your home. The installation of a Heating System may come across as costly, but once installed, your new HVAC System will only save you energy and money. Heat Pumps produce twice the amount of heat with the same amount of energy that a less expensive and ordinary HVAC System will provide.

Air Filter

Check the air filter on your HVAC unit every month, especially during heavy use months (winter and summer). If the filter looks dirty after a month, change it. At a minimum, change the filter every 3 months. A dirty filter will slow down air flow and make the system work harder to keep you warm or cool — wasting energy. A clean filter will also prevent dust and dirt from building up in the system — leading to expensive maintenance and/or early system failure. Contact your Trane Service Representative today with any questions.

Replacing Your Air Conditioning Unit

Replacing an Old, Inefficient Air Conditioner will Save Money and Make Your Home More Comfortable.

Along with providing comprehensive whole-house energy upgrades, we can take care of specific, beneficial home improvements like replacing your current air conditioner with an energy-efficient model that's properly sized for your house. Before that happens, we'll evaluate which system will work best for your property, a decision that's based on factors such as your home's size, age, number of rooms, and current cooling costs.

Replacing an old air conditioner with a modern, high-efficiency air conditioner can save your home a lot on cooling costs as well as make your home more comfortable. The Federal Dept. of Energy estimates that modern high efficiency air conditioners use 30-50% less energy to produce the same cooling as air conditioners from the 1970s. Even air conditioners that are a 10 years old can be 20-40% more inefficient than a modern one. If you have bought an older home, replacing that old air conditioner can save hundreds and thousands of dollars over the time you are living in the home.

Call us today and let us help you decide if a new Air Conditioning Unit is right for you.

Importance of Air Quality


A comfortable home means a healthy home. Indoor air quality is a major factor in the comfort level of your home.

Whether relaxing, working from home or enjoying a meal with your family, people spend a large amount of time in their home. Homes today are designed and built for maximum comfort using quality materials and appliances. Trane  heating and cooling systems are the highest in quality and design.

Indoor air pollution is among the top five environmental risks to public health. 50 million Americans suffer from allergies and 20 million Americans suffer from asthma, including one in thirteen school-age children. Pollution levels indoors can be many times higher than outdoors. Controlling the levels of airborne allergens is extremely important.

Whole-house air cleaners work in conjunction with heating and cooling systems to remove airborne allergens from the filtered air in every room.
