Why is the Emergency Heat on?
As mentioned earlier, the Emergency Heat indicator will light up if your thermostat has been set to Emergency Heat. However, if the emergency heat light is not on and your thermostat isn't set to Emergency Heat, then it usually means that your heat pump is having problems. See: Thermostat red lights flashing, or staying on for more information. Hannabery HVAC assumes no liability for the information provided on its website.

How long does A/C and heating units last on average?
HVAC systems can last for a very long time if they are regularly maintained. They can last anywhere from 12 to 20 years. Although it is rare, some units I have worked on are nearing 30 years of age. Find out what you need to know before replacing an AC conditioner or heater.
What does SEER stand for and why is it important?
The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio or SEER is a measure of the efficiency of an air conditioning unit. Higher numbers indicate units are more efficient. An HVAC system's true SEER can be affected by how much air conditioning is used and how the system is properly installed. The SEER is roughly equivalent in value to the car's fuel economy. It is possible to travel 30 MPH in certain conditions, but it is not possible to sit and crawl along IH-10 during rush hour.

Similar to SEER, the Heating Seasonal Efficiency Factor (HSPF) is an efficiency rating used to measure how efficient heaters and furnaces are. The more efficient the system, the higher its score. HSPF measures the heat output in British Thermal Units (BTU) to the electricity consumed.
What's included in heating and air conditioning tune ups?
Service of HVAC systems should be done in the cooler autumn and spring months before the heat of the summer or the blasts of winter. Find out about the heater performance tune-ups as well as air conditioner tune-ups. Regular maintenance can also protect your heater or air conditioner warranty. An HVAC maintenance guide has been created that provides additional information.
Why should I change my air filters regularly?
Regular filter replacement can help your heating and cooling systems run at peak levels. It also improves indoor air quality. To maintain good airflow in your home and prevent allergens, germs, and dust from building up, it is essential to replace filters every so often. Your service technician can suggest filtering and purification options, as well as a replacement plan for your unit.
