Carbon Monoxide Detectors

We continually hear about carbon monoxide detectors for our homes, but what about at our businesses? Regardless if you have gas, oil or wood/coal, it might be a good idea to have one. Even with high efficiency furnaces and boilers, if the combustion air intake should get blocked you could produce carbon monoxide. It might be especially important if you have any older boiler. The CDC states that 500 people each year die from Carbon Monoxide poisoning, although most of these occurrances are in homes, Twenty percent (20%) of incidents occur in businesses of various types.
In winter time the chances of carbon monoxide poisoning are greatly increased. Carbon Monoxide detectors have to installed separately from a traditional HVAC system. If you are interested in adding a carbon monoxide detector to your system, please contact us. For more information about carbon monoxide click here

Remember to Change Your Air Filters

Air filters within your heating and air conditioning system are easy to forget; you don't see them, and there are no warnings when they are dirty, but they are important for the life of your equipment and the comfort of employees. Filters that are not changed regularly enough will eventually stop filtering the air. A plugged filter will sometimes collapse and get pulled out of its filter track. Air can now bypass the filter and accumulate in coils, fan wheels and ductwork. Dirty coils and fan wheels reduce the performance of the equipment. Secondly, dirty filters can reduce the air flow through a heating or cooling system. Reduced air flow will cause heat exchangers to run hotter and cooling coils to run colder than they were designed to. Uncorrected, this will lead to shortened life expectancy or failure of the equipment. Filters vary in quality performance and price. Selecting the proper filter to meet the requirements at the most economical price is important. Filter...
