It’s Spring Cleaning Time – Call Us for Air Conditioning Services in Dallas TX

dallas tx air conditioning servicesYou may be ready for warmer weather, but is your air conditioning unit? The scorching heat of a Texas summer means it’s going to be getting a workout. Some preventive maintenance can keep it from being overworked so it will function better. To help you stay cool and your air conditioning unit stay happy, here are a few simple tips from your friends at Kleen Air, provider of air conditioning services in Dallas, TX.

First, make sure you’re changing the filters often enough. You should check them every month to be sure they aren’t clogged. Clogged filters slow the airflow through the blower unit and could cause the cooling coil to ice up, which could in turn stop your air conditioning unit from working. Be aware that allergen-reducing filters need to be changed more frequently.

Next, make sure the condenser unit has a couple feet of space around it and isn’t being strangled by shrubs or grass. Clean the condenser fan of any debris that might be sticking to it and impeding the air flow. You can use a garden hose to do this.

Check the registers and ducts inside your house. Clean them off, move anything that’s blocking them, and then take a look inside at the ducts. Look for any gaps or leaks in them. Also check their appearance — if they are very dirty or if you see mold or mildew growing in them, it’s time to get them cleaned. Our air conditioning service in Dallas, TX provides duct cleaning to thoroughly scrub your air conditioning ducts and make sure pollutants, dust mites, mold and mildew aren’t being blown into the air you’re breathing.

Last, turn on your air conditioning unit to make sure it is working well before hot weather hits. If it needs repair or professional maintenance, it’s better to call for air conditioning services as soon as you can to avoid an emergency later when it’s too hot to go without air conditioning.

Importance of Attic Insulation, Ventilation & Radiant Heat

July 17, 2012 By Leave a Comment
The importance of effective Attic Insulation & Attic Ventilation cannot be understated!

Attic Insulation, Ventilation & Radiant Barrier DiagramAttic insulation, attic ventilation, and radiant heat is a major player in your home heating and cooling, which directly translates into your electric bill! Your attic has 3 basic elements that can be improved to maximize energy savings.

  1. Attic Insulation

    Attic Insulation helps keep home energy loss as slow as possible by minimizing the amount of time the heating or cooling system must be on to keep the temperature within a comfortable range. Read More on: Attic Insulation

  2. Attic Ventilation

    Attic ventilation is basically the flow of air through your attic. Your ventilation components must provide for the adequate inflow of cooler outside air and adequate outflow of your hotter attic air. Read More on: Attic Ventilation Systems

  3. Radiant Barrier

    Radiant barrier is a coating material installed in buildings, new and old alike, to reduce summer heat gains and winter heat loss. We install radiant barrier to the decking, truss chords, and rafters of your attic to create a barrier to reflect radiant energy away from your home.

Solutions for High Utility Bills

June 21, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Your energy bills consist of two parts:

  1. The rate you pay per hour or kilowatt hour (kWh).
  2. The amount of energy you use.

You can lower the rate you pay your provider per hour by choosing a plan that has a low rate and fits your usage needs. And you can lower the total amount of energy you use by improving your home’s efficiency, whether it be appliances, HVAC, insulation, windows etc.

Lowering the Amount of Energy You Use

Simple energy saving tips have been well publicized, things such as turning out lights when leaving a room and adjusting your thermostat when you aren’t home.
However, there is more you can do to improve the efficiency of your home, which in turn will make it more comfortable and lower your utility bill.

Some of these include:
  • Attic Ventilation
    Improve the flow of air through your attic, allowing cooler outside air in (soffit vent) and hotter air out (turbine vents)
  • Attic Insulation
    Proper attic insulation does not impede attic airflow and should also have at least the minimum R-Value. Radiant Barriers and Attic Tents can also help insulate your attic.
  • AC Equipment & Ducts
    HVAC equipment efficiency is constantly improving; make sure that you are not left behind wasting money on utility bills.
  • Home Air Infiltration
    As much as half of your household energy goes to heating and cooling your home, if you home leaks you are losing money.

Where Do I Start?

By improving the efficiency of different areas of your home, substantial energy savings can be realized; but knowing where to start can be a daunting task. For this reason Kleen Air Services provides Free Energy Audits, Call 972-527-3207 to schedule yours today!
After the inspection and testing is complete you will be provided with a report that will include:

  • Results Report
  • Recommendations
