Summer in Kitchener-Waterloo can be brutal when the humidity rises and the sun beats down day after day. If you’re relying on your air conditioning system to keep you cool, it’s crucial that it’s operating at peak performance. But comfort isn’t the only concern efficiency matters too. Nobody wants to be surprised by sky-high energy bills in July and August.
At Advance Heating & Cooling, we understand what it takes to beat the heat while keeping your system running smoothly. Whether you have central air, a ductless mini split, or a high-efficiency heat pump, there are simple ways to maximize your comfort and minimize your costs.
If you haven’t already scheduled your annual AC tune-up, now is the time. A professional inspection and cleaning will help identify potential issues early, improve airflow, and keep your system running more efficiently. Dirty coils, clogged filters, and refrigerant issues are common problems that can be caught early before they leave you sweating through a breakdown.
Our team at Advance Heating & Cooling offers thorough air conditioning tune-ups that include checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical connections, inspecting your blower motor, and cleaning both indoor and outdoor coils. We also look for worn parts and signs of wear that could lead to bigger repairs if ignored.
If your current air conditioner is more than 12 years old, struggles to keep up on the hottest days, or your energy bills have crept up year after year, it may be time to consider an upgrade. Modern high-efficiency systems, especially heat pumps with inverter technology, can cool your home more evenly and use less electricity doing it.
At Advance, we carry the latest models from Daikin offering superior performance, ultra-quiet operation, and industry-leading warranties. Plus, thanks to government rebate programs, switching to a cold-climate heat pump can be more affordable than ever.
While your HVAC system is doing the heavy lifting, you can support it with a few simple steps:
Summer humidity isn’t just uncomfortable it can make your home feel stuffy and contribute to mold or mildew growth. Installing a whole-home dehumidifier or ensuring your existing unit is draining properly can make a big difference. We also recommend changing your air filters monthly during the summer to keep dust, pollen, and pet dander from clogging your system.
If allergies or air quality are concerns in your home, we offer several indoor air quality solutions, including high-efficiency filters, UV lights, and humidity control systems.
