RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL HVAC IN Pierce County, Washington

If your home or business’ HVAC system was installed in 2006 or earlier, you could see as much as 54% in energy savings by upgrading to one of today’s more efficient units. This may seem like a big investment, but with energy bills constantly on the rise, this upgrade can pay for itself pretty quickly! Look for a new home or commercial unit with the highest energy rating that fits your budget, and work with one of Infinity’s experts to plan out the perfect size and type of system for you.

There are many factors that go into planning the perfect heating and cooling system for your home or business, such as the square footage of your building, the climate, the number and type of windows, insulation, and even the number of people that use the building. The experts at Infinity Heating & Air will work with you to calculate what size and type of HVAC system is best for your complete comfort.

This comes down to how old your current HVAC system is, and how well it has been maintained. The average home heating system lasts about 15 years, after which time it is probably obsolete, inefficient, and not worth putting a lot of money into for maintenance and repair. Our HVAC technicians at Infinity Heating & Air will evaluate your current system and tell you if there is a simple issue that is resolvable or if you need to plan a replacement.

We recommend you do proper preventive maintenance and get your system professionally serviced every year. Planning your service for when the heating season ends in the spring/summer helps you avoid last-minute emergency service calls and avoid needing any costly repairs during peak season.

Many homeowners will find it simple enough to replace the air filter in their furnace or boiler themselves. Doing this every 1-2 months during the operating season will keep the airflow consistent in your system and help save energy.

Another easy way to optimize your heating system is to keep the area around any heating units uncluttered. Have at least 2 to 3 feet of space around your main unit and 5 feet of clearance above it. It’s important to leave adequate space for airflow and to prevent any fire hazards. Clean ductwork, baseboards, and radiators regularly to eliminate any dust buildup. For an outdoor unit, keep the area around it free of brush and debris. Your heating system will work much more efficiently, and you’ll notice an improvement in your indoor air quality as well.
