Byclub Heating & Plumbing, an HVAC and plumbing services company based in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, has announced that they have a new blog. Their purpose to offer helpful articles to homeowners and property owners regarding HVAC and plumbing systems. Some of the topics discussed in the blog are the effect of an HVAC system on health, radiant heating systems, tuning up HVAC systems, how to prepare to common HVAC emergencies, and tips for improving the energy efficiency of the home.
Frank Masterson, a spokesperson for Byclub Heating & Plumbing, says, “We’re happy to announce that we have a new blog. We will discuss various topics about HVAC and plumbing systems, including HVAC and plumbing basics. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you need any information or help with your HVAC and plumbing systems.”
In one of the important articles on the blog, they discuss how HVAC systems can affect people’s health, especially with winter fast approaching. With people staying in their homes more often to stay cozy and warm during the winter, the HVAC system is responsible for the air that circulates around the home. It is possible for the air to contain carbon monoxide and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Many people know that carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas and can affect the health and even cause death.
What makes carbon monoxide all the more dangerous is that it is colorless and odorless, which means people may not be aware that they are breathing in this poisonous gas in their home. Thus, it is vital to have the heating system checked by experts to ensure that they are not producing this type of gas and putting the family members in danger.
Meanwhile, winter also brings with it dry air, which can cause sinus problems for certain people. The dry air may not only cause sinusitis. The dehydrated sinuses can also make people more susceptible to winter colds or the flu. People can avoid this by drinking more water and increasing the humidity level in the home or building.
In addition, VOCs can be emitted by various household items, such as cleaning products, furniture and carpet. People can avoid these harmful gases in the air by getting rid of certain adhesives, some household products, and more. They can also make sure that the air filter of their furnace is clean and working properly, and they can also invest in an air cleaner.
Another important topic discussed in the blog is the use of radiant systems. These equipment use invisible electromagnetic infrared waves to provide the heat and warmth needed during the colder seasons. But unlike the conventional heating systems, these do not heat the air and circulate it. The infrared rays transfer heat directly to the objects closest to them. As these objects absorb the heat, they in turn radiate their heat to other objects in the room so that in time, the whole room becomes warm. The advantage of radiant systems is that they are more efficient than other heating systems and they also do not cause dust and allergens to circulate in the air. It is also silent and there are no air ducts to clean, which means minimal maintenance.
Another helpful article that the blog provides is how people can prepare for common HVAC emergencies. This is essential because government statistics has shown that about one fourth of all households in Canada don’t have enough savings to pay for an emergency HVAC repair. According to the Ministry of Energy, the most common problems are electric control failure, refrigerant leaks, improper drainage, and sensor problems. Ways to prepare for an emergency include keeping the heating and air conditioning equipment well-maintained; saving up some money to be used in such emergencies; and regularly calling on experts to ensure that the HVAC system is working properly.
