Here at Austin, we enjoy beautiful scenery, a strong sense of community, and delicious barbecues. What don’t we enjoy? The humidity.
With summer in full bloom in Manor, most residents are all looking to save some pennies wherever possible. So why not start with your costly energy bill? After all, the US Department of Energy says air conditioning AC can account for 35 to 40 percent of your utility bill.
Every team needs a leader.
In the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry, your thermostat is the undisputed leader of the heating and cooling team. It signals your furnace and air conditioner (AC) when to turn on and off. Whenever your thermostat detects a temperature change that’s different from the desired setting in your Bastrop home, it barks out a new directive to adjust the indoor climate.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, central air conditioning systems have a service life of approximately 15 to 20 years.
From replacing air filters to scheduling maintenance, cleaning for your cooling system can prevent breakdowns and keep your home comfortable.
While Texas enjoys terrific weather most of the year, our summers can quickly get muggy and hot. Those high temperatures—along with the humidity—demand a reliable AC unit. That means you need a nearby heating and cooling company you can trust to maintain your HVAC system year-round.
Our team at Blue Air regularly gets calls about frozen heat pumps. Though common, a heat pump freeze-up usually means your system’s components are not working correctly.
With all the options available for setting your programmable thermostat, it is easy to get confused. Of course, this defeats the purpose of a programmable thermostat––it is designed for you to “set it and forget it,” making your life easier. Naturally, anything can be confusing at times, so feel free to contact our qualified Blue Air Heating and Air Conditioning team members with any questions you may have about your programmable thermostat.

This issue happens more often than not with older furnaces, and it could be a sign you are ready to upgrade your Austin home’s heating and cooling system with a new model. At the 10-year mark, furnaces start to lose efficiency and begin breaking down more frequently.
