Why Repair My Furnace in the Summer?

Most people aren’t thinking about winter, much less whether or not they may need to replace their furnace before Colorado cold weather strikes.  While it may seem a bit early to begin thinking about replacing your furnace, now is precisely the right time if your current unit needs replacing.   

There are several reasons why.

1.  It saves money.  Retail stores are discounting last year’s models.

2.  Convenience…before the rush.

3.  You have time to research options now, not when the temps hit the freezing mark.

Do you suspect that come winter you are going to need a new furnace?  Why not pull the trigger now?  Call the HVAC experts at Altitude Heating and Air.  They have served Colorado Springs and the surrounding area’s heating and air conditioning needs for many years.  Get ahead of the curve before fall.  Call Altitude Heating and Air at (719) 209-4955.

Installing Faucets in your Home.

You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to install a faucet, but it would be nice if you were trained to do so ahead of time!  These days you should not have to crawl around to install a faucet in your bathroom or kitchen, but there are still things you should know if you really feel that it is a DIY job.

Here are some tips from us to you –

1.  You need to cut out the old faucet.

2.  Grab a basin wrench.

3.  Use silicone to mount the new faucet.

4.  Use the newest supply lines for the job.

5.  Loosen the packing nut if the shutoff valve is stuck.

There are more…or there could be less when you realize that calling a plumbing professional was the best idea in the first place!  In Colorado Springs that call should be made to Altitude Heating and Air the faucet installation pros in the area.  Some jobs are better left to the professionals.  Call Altitude Heating and Air today at (719) 209-4955.

Should your Home Have Central Air Conditioning?

Maybe you are among the hardiest of us in the Colorado Springs area.  The average daily high temperature in the summer around here is well over 80 degrees.  Believe it or not, some homes don’t have air conditioning.  Some older homes, or cottages that were designed to take advantage of the natural breeze, are lacking in this modern amenity.

Here are a few questions to ask –

1.  What is your heating system like?  Is it gas and forced air?

2.  Will your circuit breaker handle the additional electricity?

3.  What is the right a/c unit for your castle?

Once you have asked and answered these questions the next step is to call the whole home air conditioning installation experts in the Colorado Springs area.  That’s Altitude Heating and Air.  The pros at Altitude will assess your particular situation and make recommendations if you like.  Call Altitude before it gets any hotter at (719) 209-4955.
