Have you ever been in your house’s crawl space? For some plumbing, HVAC or electric work, it might take venturing down there. If you need to go into the crawl space, there are safety measures you should take. A little prep, common sense and help will help you go into a crawl space safely.

Why the HVAC in Schools Helps a Learning Environment
The last few warm, then hot, weeks of school for the spring feel long and grueling anyway. Summer break is almost here. There might be tests or exams still to go. Then, especially around this area, you might have warm, hot, humid classrooms.

You’re going to need your air conditioner this summer in the Carolinas. There’s no way around it. Running the AC almost nonstop means higher utility bills. It could mean a big expense down the line if your AC or HVAC needs repairing or replacing sooner than you’d like.

Wow. Weather stripping. So exciting. Replacing old, worn or damaged weather stripping, or putting it in where there hasn’t been any before, around outside doors will improve the climate control of your house. You’ll save money on energy bills.

Recovery mode on a home thermostat sounds like there is or was some type of emergency in your house. Is there a major problem with the HVAC? Nearly all the time, recovery mode is a safe, predictable mode a programmable thermostat goes into when it’s getting ready to switch settings and program to a new temperature.

We might take air conditioning for granted these days. Or, we might just think of its’ benefits only on a hot, humid Carolina summer day when it’s very refreshing to come inside to a cool house. We probably don’t think much about how an AC system helps or harms our health, but it can have many important effects.
