Air Conditioners

Air Conditioners combine money-saving efficiency, whisper-quiet operation, environmental-friendliness and superb reliability to bring you peace of mind year after year. In addition to cooling, they dehumidify and filter air, making it more comfortable and cleaner. A central air conditioner works from a central location to distribute conditioned air throughout a house.

Furnaces

A forced-air furnace is a relatively simple device, somewhat like a gas oven that's hooked up to a fan. Natural gas is piped to a burner inside a combustion chamber where the gas is mixed with air and ignited by a pilot light, a spark or a related device at the request of a thermostat. A blower in the furnace pulls cool air in from rooms through air ducts, passes it through a metal "heat exchanger" where it's heated by the burner, and blows the warm air back into rooms through ductwork. Exhaust gasses from the burners are vented outside through a flue.

Heat Pumps

Heat pumps use electricity to move heat from a cool space into a warm, making the cool space cooler and the warm space warmer. During the heating season, heat pumps move heat from the cool outdoors into your warm house; during the cooling season, heat pumps move heat from your cool house into the warm outdoors. Because they move heat rather than generate heat, heat pumps can provide up to 4 times the amount of energy they consume.

Programmable Thermostats

Regardless of which room you are in, a programmable set-back thermostat provides year-round temperature control for total comfort. If your home is vacant most of the day you can program the thermostat to turn up the heat or cool the house a half an hour before anyone arrives home! Why heat or cool an empty house?
