Miller's Plumbing & Heating, a plumbing and heating company offering their services in Belleville, Canada, and neighbouring areas, has announced their new blog. This is designed to provide helpful information to homeowners to help them ensure that their plumbing and heating systems will be always be in proper working order. Topics discussed include how to choose the ideal 24-hours plumbing service, the role of HVAC systems in indoor air quality, the relationship between filters and allergies, and the HVAC system as contributor to high energy bills.
Jack B. Miller, a spokesperson for Miller's Plumbing & Heating, says, “We’re happy to announce that we have a new blog. We trust that this could prove to be helpful to homeowners and property owners with regards to their plumbing and heating systems, especially with winter coming.”
An important topic is choosing the ideal 24-hour plumbing service for a home. This is important because a plumbing service that botches the job can cause a home to be unlivable for a number of days. Thus, it is vital to perform personal assessments before prequalifying a particular plumber. People can assess their customer service, cost, and work quality. Homeowners can conduct online research on the plumbers in order to evaluate them before prequalifying them.
Another important topic discussed in the blog of this plumbing, heating, cooling and furnace company is the vital role of HVAC systems in indoor air quality. Studies have shown that indoor air quality may be a number of time worse than the outside air quality. This may be surprising to some people because of the common belief that outdoor air has pollutants and the home has walls that prevent outside air from getting in. The problem is that many pollutants can come from inside the home.
HVAC systems are not just for heating or cooling. They also play a role in ventilation or the circulation of air inside the home. During the air circulation process, filters are used to clean up any dirt, dust, debris and pollutants in the air. However, most furnaces have cheap disposable filters. Thus, it is important to regularly replace these filters. Or better still, homeowners can upgrade to a filter that has several pleats or even a HEPA type filter. These filters are better in cleaning a huge amount of dust, pollen, allergens, and other contaminants. And depending on the need and situation, humidifiers, dehumidifiers and UV light sanitizers may also be installed.
Another article points out that homeowners and property owners often neglect the fact that HVAC systems will still use up some power even after they are turned off. While the amount of energy used may be relatively small, these can lead to unusually high utility bills. People can reduce power costs by carefully examining the home and unplugging those that are not in use. It may also be possible to connect those equipment to a surge electrical extension so that they can turn them off when they’re not being used.
Another noteworthy way to control electric bills is to improve the insulation and ensuring that the HVAC system are regularly maintained. This can also help in preventing costly repairs.
And during the time when purchasing an HVAC system, it is also advisable to ensure that it is a high efficiency system. Choosing a high efficiency heating system in preparation for the winter is not just about looking through a number of system and selecting what seems to be the most attractive among them. A good way to do it is to check the efficiency ratings of each particular equipment being considered. Standards have been set by the Department of Energy. For heating systems fuelled by natural gas, they have the Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating. AFUE is presented as a percentage and the more efficient ones have higher values of AFUE.
