3 Home Heating Mistakes to Watch Out For

While fall in California may not be as cold as in other areas, you should still take measures to ensure your heating system will operate properly in the event it does get cooler. Evaluating how you use the system and checking its overall condition are just a couple of the things you should do. After all, it’s possible that you could actually be making home heating mistakes without realizing it. A premier residential HVAC company, Kemnitz Air Conditioning & Heating Inc., discusses a couple of them here. 

Heating an empty home. It’s not a good idea to leave your heating system set at the usual temperature when you’re out for most of the day or away for the weekend. To avoid high energy costs, invest in a smart thermostat. You can easily program it to turn the heat down when you’re out and start warming up your home right before you come back home. Kemnitz Air Conditioning & Heating Inc. offers high-quality Wi-Fi thermostats from top brand Carrier® that can meet this particular need.

Overlooking regular tune-ups. A well-tuned heating system will run reliably and efficiently, helping keep your energy costs to a minimum. You can make this possible by scheduling a comprehensive HVAC inspection and tune-up at the start of every season. You can do this by calling your trusted heating repair and installation expert, Kemnitz Air Conditioning & Heating Inc. With our top-tier service, we’ll make sure your system continues providing the worry-free performance you’ve come to expect.

Forgetting to change the air filter. Perhaps you’ve noticed the vents aren’t blowing enough hot air. The reason for this may be a dirty, clogged filter, which can hamper the way air is distributed throughout your home. Experts recommend that homeowners change the filter at least once a month to ensure smooth, continuous airflow.
