The Best Upgrade You’ll Make This Summer: Central AC

Monday, June 3rd, 2024

For many years, people have consistently chosen central air conditioners over window AC units when given the choice. But that’s the problem: due to the sheer installation cost of a central air conditioner, many people just don’t get to make that choice. They end up pulling out their window cooling units every spring and dealing with the consequences.

However, central air conditioners in Yakima, WA, might be more expensive to install, but they can actually be pretty affordable to run consistently. And, depending on the layout of your home and your lifestyle, you might be a lot better off with a central AC than with a window unit.

When to Replace Your Electrical Panel

Monday, November 6th, 2023

An electrical panel works as a switching station for the electrical system in your house. The electricity from the main electrical line enters your home through the panel, which divides the current into the various circuits. The panel also serves to protect the electrical system from damage by tripping circuit breakers in case of voltage spikes.

Even though the electrical panel is an essential part of your house, you probably only really think about it when you need to reset a breaker. Most likely you haven’t considered that your electrical panel has a limited service life. It does! You don’t want to have an outdated, unreliable, possibly dangerous electrical panel in your home.

We’re pros when it comes to residential electrical wiring in Yakima, WA so we can give you advice about when it’s time for a new panel.

Yes, Your Heat Pump Needs Fall Maintenance

Monday, September 11th, 2023

Fall is approaching, and that’s when people’s minds turn to thoughts of heating maintenance.

Okay, we’re being a touch optimistic. We wish more people would think of heating maintenance at the start of fall, because that’s the best time to schedule it. It is also one of the most important home maintenance tasks you need done before winter arrives, or else you may end up with a non-working heater on one of the coldest days of the year.

But what if you have a heat pump? You had it maintenance for it back in spring, so you should be good, right?

Well, you’d be good if you only used your heat pump during the summer. But heat pumps are meant to work all around the year. The whole reason for having a heat pump is that you have cooling and heating combined into a single system. If you want your heat pump to serve you dutifully and efficiently during the coming winter, you’ll need to schedule fall heat pump service in Yakima, WA to maintain it.
