Fifty years is a long time for anyone to think about. Our phones and computers barely last a few years, so it’s hard to think about any technology lasting multiple decade
. And, if we think about the progress that’s been made with HVAC technology in just the last couple of decades, the next 50 years might as well be a thousand.
But time continues to march forward, and just like tomorrow will come, so will the next decade, and planning far into the future can be a good idea, just like planning for tomorrow.
Every HVAC professional will tell you that the only HVAC system that has the efficiency and longevity to handle most of the regulations and changes to come in this half-century is geothermal heating and cooling in New Haven, IN.
Geothermal systems are a huge step towards eco-friendly heating and cooling, and some of their components last up to 50 years!
For all of those homeowners that might be a little skeptical of a gas furnace’s safety, this blog is for you. While yes, without routine maintenance and professional attention for repairs, a gas furnace can run into serious problems that can make it potentially harmful. But when a system is maintained properly and in good shape, it’s actually got a lot of safety mechanisms in place to make sure your home is safe, efficient, and comfortable.
That probably sounds like a tall task, right? Who determines what the “right” temperature is in your home? This is usually where your friends or family would all give their input on how they set their thermostat, and it would lead to a never-ending conversation about the “right” temperature for the perfect home. However, there’s a little bit of truth in this scenario that we would like to explore–mainly the fact that some temperatures are more efficient than others.
When talking about the condition of your heating system this year, we need to also include the setting on your thermostat. The higher the temperature, the harder your furnace has to work and the more likely it is that you’ll need
