Frequently Asked Questions: Heating and Cooling
How often should I replace my air filter to maintain optimal HVAC performance?
We recommend checking your air filter every 30 days and replacing it every 1–3 months depending on system use, pet presence, and indoor air quality needs. A clean filter supports airflow, efficiency, and equipment longevity.
What signs indicate my furnace or AC system may be oversized or undersized?
If your system turns on and off frequently, creates hot/cold spots, or fails to reach desired temperatures, it may be improperly sized. Our team performs load calculations to ensure accurate sizing during replacement.
Can ductless systems heat an entire home effectively in Wisconsin winters?
Yes. Modern ductless heat pumps with cold-climate ratings can provide whole-home heating even in sub-zero temperatures. Proper sizing and zoning are key to their effectiveness.
