HVAC Repair Tips for Homeowners

Auxiliary heat is a secondary heat source that turns on automatically.

Emergency heat is when you turn on the secondary heat source.

The difference between auxiliary heat and emergency heat is simply the name. Both forms of heat are the exact same heat elements but are labeled differently. Heat pumps are commonly used as our primary source of heat in warmer regions. There is a limit to this unit. As long as the outdoor temperature is above 45 degrees, a heat pump can satisfy your home’s heating needs. The outside coil can and will freeze up at 45 degrees, causing the system to defrost. When in defrost mode, the outdoor unit signals the air handler to turn on the auxiliary heater. This heater is an electric heater similar to a toaster oven and will supply supplemental heat to the home while the outdoor unit is defrosting itself. Once the outdoor system is defrosted, the auxiliary heater turns off and the system continues in heat pump mode. If a heat pump system fails or is not working correctly, the homeowner must force the system into emergency heat mode. This heater is the exact same heater as the auxiliary element, only used in a different format. A heater is typically not designed to heat your home to 80 degrees, but to supplement heat while the heat pump defrosts or to serve as an emergency backup. The first function of auxiliary heat is to back up the heat pump if the thermostat differs by 3 degrees or more from the set temperature. In this case, the heat pump and heat strips will work together to create warmer air. The auxiliary heat will turn off once the thermostat set point is within 2 degrees of the inside temperature. The second function is when the outdoor system goes into defrost mode, as stated above.

House buying can be stressful. You want to be 100% sure that you find the perfect home. Do you want a condo, townhouse, or single-family home? Each has its pros and cons. Do you need a lot of bedrooms? Do you need an extra guest room or a playroom for the kids? You will find the ideal home if you understand your needs. Consider the size and condition of your kitchen if you plan to use it. A big kitchen means room for the whole family. Oversized kitchens also mean more room for dishes and cookware, so if you have a large family, the extra space may be useful. A renovated kitchen also has its perks. No more DIY projects to fix that chip on the breakfast bar with brand new countertops and cabinets. Older kitchens, however, have charm. You can also upgrade as you see fit. Plumbing in a home must work. After buying your new home, you don’t want to have to spend thousands on repairs a month later. The cost and time of electrical repairs can be high. Like our plumbing recommendation, get an electrician to inspect your home rather than a home inspector. HVAC systems must be reliable. Moving into your new home is stressful enough without having to worry about HVAC repairs. A new cooling and heating system is always a good choice. Buying a new HVAC unit means you won’t have to replace it soon. Dirty air ducts can pollute your air with dust, allergens, and debris. You won’t get the most out of your HVAC unit if you have leaky ducts, and you will waste money. A new home purchase can be overwhelming, but it’s also exciting. A home’s size and location aren’t the only factors to consider.

I was hanging with my friends on the beach last night watching the lightning in the sky as this huge dark gray cloud slowly came our way.

We ended up going to a restaurant for a couple hours and eating and drinking.

I went home after that, and I am lucky I did because about 15 minutes after I got home it started to pour. The rain didn’t let up for hours and the streets were flooded like rivers with nowhere to go to keep dry. I think my friends must have got caught in the downpour. The local business where they went after we ate was only open for another hour after they went there so that means they had to walk home in the pouring rain along those flooded streets. I am working today for this HVAC equipment store doing smart thermostat programming and answering the phone. I think I slept about seven hours last night and I am feeling pretty good today. My life has gone through some heavy twists and turns the past couple years but I think I am finally heading towards the sun once again. I will work for the heating corp this winter doing heat pump repairs and inventory in the store, which is great because I could use a little more money during the winter as my roommate is going to be moving out soon. I will try to do a lot of heating repairs this winter so I can save up some money for next year when I do some traveling.
