The warmer weather is a welcomed sight for many homeowners. After a hot and humid day in the sun, it’s a relief to walk into the cool, air-conditioned air of the home. The last thing the user wants is to find that the air conditioning has stopped working. Forgetting or avoiding the annual maintenance on the air conditioner or heat pump can lead to interruptions in the equipment working properly. The longer the user goes without maintenance, the more dirt and debris will build up in the fi...

In the late 1990s, standby generators were thought of like central air was in the 1970s. It was not very common and something few people had. Today, however, they’re becoming a lot more popular. In fact, many brand new homes are often built with backup generators, increasing the home’s desirability and resale value. Backup/standby generators Smaller than an air conditioning unit, modern backup generators are quiet and generate enough power to run the entire house. Home owners can t...

Temperature controllers are designed to perform the function of keeping an object or process at the desired temperature. In every application where controlling a temperature is required, a controller is used to set a temperature by way of a set point. A sensor of some kind is used to compare the temperature at that location to the set point required. Some applications require heat to maintain a specific temperature, while some require cooling, and others require both. Maintaining temperatu...
