health & safety

promote safety

During normal operation, gas appliances such as water heaters, clothes dryers, and furnaces release combustion gases (like carbon monoxide) through their venting systems. Leaky ductwork in your heating and cooling system may cause “backdrafting,” wherein these gases are drawn back into living space instead of being expelled to the outdoors. Sealing leaks can reduce this risk.

Enhance indoor air quality

Fumes from household and garden chemicals, insulation particles and dust can enter your duct system and agravate asthma and allergy problems. Sealing ducts reduces the risk of pollutants entering ducts and circulating throughout your home.

save money

Leaky ducts can reduce heating and cooling system efficiency by as much as 20 percent. Sealing and insulating ducts increases efficiency, lowers your energy bills and can pay for itself in energy savings.

  • Staph (staphylococcus aureus): 98.5% reduction. Definition: parasitic bacteria that tend to form irregular colonies. Some cause boils or life-threatening and other infections.
  • MRSA (Methycillin Resistant Staphyococcusaureus): 99.8% reduction. Definition: an infection from a strain of staph bacteria that's become resistant to the antibiotics commonly used to treat ordinary staph infections.
  • E-Coli (Escherichia coli): 98.1% reduction. Definition: a bacterium that normally resides in the human colon. Most strains are harmless, but some cause diseases that are sometimes fatal.
  • Anthrax family (Bacillus Spp.): 99.38% reduction. Definition: a large family of bacteria that includes the bacteria that cause food to spoil, as well as cause certain types of diseases.
  • Strep (Streptococcus spp.): 96.4% reduction. Definition: A type of bacterium that may infect tonsils. If untreated, infectioncan lead to rheumatic fever.
  • Pseudomonas aureuginosa: 99.0% reduction. Definition: a common bacterium that can cause disease in animals, including humans. It is found in soil, water, on skin, and in most man-made environments throughout the world.
  • Listeria Monocytogenes: 99.75% reduction. Definition: one of the most virulent food borne pathogens with 20 to 30 percent of clinical infections resulting in death. Listeriosis is responsible for approximately 2,500 illnesses and 500 deaths in the United States every year.

Heating and Cooling Tips

Set your programmable thermostat as low as is comfortable in the winter and as high as is comfortable in the summer, and - depending on the season - raise or lower the setpoint when you're sleeping or away from home.

Clean or replace filters on furnaces and air conditioners once a month or as recommended.

Clean warm-air registers, baseboard heaters, and radiators as needed; make sure they're not blocked by furniture, carpeting, or drapes.

Eliminate trapped air from hot-water radiators once or twice a season; if unsure about how to perform this task, contact us at Absolute Comfort.

Place heat-resistant radiator reflectors between exterior walls and the radiators.

Turn off kitchen, bath, and other exhaust fans within 20 minutes after you are done cooking or bathing; when replacing exhaust fans, consider installing high-efficiency, low-noise models.

During winter, keep the draperies and shades on your south-facing windows open during the day to allow the sunlight to enter your home and closed at night to reduce the chill you may feel from cold windows.

During summer, keep the window coverings closed during the day to block the sun's heat.

LONG-TERM SAVINGS TIPS

Select energy-efficient products when you buy new heating and cooling equipment. Let us help you choose!

For furnaces, look for high Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings. The national minimum is 78%

AFUE, but there are ENERGY STAR® models on the market that exceed 90% AFUE. For air conditioners, look for a high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER). The current minimum is 13 SEER for central air conditioners. ENERGY STAR models are 14.5 SEER or more.

Change your air filter regularly

Check your filter 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.

Tune up your HVAC equipment yearly

Just as a tune-up for your car can improve your gas mileage, a yearly tune-up of your heating and cooling system can improve efficiency and comfort.

Install a programmable thermostat

A programmable thermostat is ideal for people who are away from home during set periods of time throughout the week. Through proper use of pre-programmed settings, a programmable thermostat can save you about $180 every year in energy costs.

Seal your heating and cooling ducts

Ducts that move air to-and-from a forced air furnace, central air conditioner, or heat pump are often big energy wasters. Sealing ducts can improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling system by as much as 20 percent — and sometimes much more.

Focus first on sealing ducts that run through the attic, crawlspace, unheated basement, or garage. Use duct sealant (mastic) or metal-backed (foil) tape to seal the seams and connections of ducts. After sealing the ducts in those spaces, wrap them in insulation to keep them from getting hot in the summer or cold in the winter. Next, look to seal any other ducts that you can access in the heated or cooled part of the house.

Consider installing ENERGY STAR qualified heating and cooling equipment

If your HVAC equipment is more than 10 years old or not keeping your house comfortable, have it evaluated by a professional HVAC contractor. If it is not performing efficiently or needs upgrading, consider replacing it with a unit that has earned the ENERGY STAR. Depending on where you live, replacing your old heating and cooling equipment with ENERGY STAR qualified equipment can cut your annual energy bill by nearly $200. But before you invest in a new HVAC system, make sure that you have addressed the big air leaks in your house and the duct system. Sometimes, these are the real sources of problems rather than your HVAC equipment.

Ask about Proper Installation of your new equipment

Replacing your old heating and cooling equipment with new, energy-efficient models is a great start. But to make sure that you get the best performance, the new equipment must be properly installed. In fact, improper installation can reduce system efficiency by up to 30 percent costing you more on your utility bills and possibly shortening the equipment's life
