Time to Consider Your Air Conditioner.

Say what?  We don’t need air conditioning in Colorado Springs this time of year.  What is this all about?  Most central air conditioners have two basic parts: an outdoor unit (compressor/condenser) that sits next to your home and an indoor unit (evaporator) that’s located in a central duct near your furnace. 

We don’t want you to start the summer of 2020 without 2020 air conditioning vision. 

1.  Keep the unit clean

2.  Fix a sinking air conditioner pad

3.  Add an in-line duct booster

4.  Fix the fins

5.  Unclog the condensate drain tube

These are just some of the things that need to be checked by next Spring.  You can wait, of course, but at some point, you will REALLY need your home’s A/C unit working at peak efficiency.  Call us…now or later, at Altitude Heating and Air at for a complete A/C check-up in Colorado Springs at (719) 209-4955.  Procrastination or peace of mind…that is the question!

What is Radiant Heat.

Okay, it’s time to get very serious about heating your Colorado Springs area home over the next six months.  What about radiant heat?  It supplies heat directly to the floor or to panels in the wall or even the ceiling of your home.  It delivers heat directly to the people in the room via something known as infrared radiation.

Radiant heating has many different advantages.  It is much more efficient than baseboard heating and usually more efficient even than forced-air heating because it eliminates duct losses.  Did you know that people with allergies often prefer radiant heat because it doesn’t distribute allergens like forced air systems can?

A radiant heating system may be just the answer for your Colorado Springs family home.  Whatever type of heat you have (or wish to have) in your home please remember Altitude Heating and Air for all your heating repairs and installation in the Colorado Springs area.  Just call (719) 209-4955.

Okay, I Guess it’s Time to Turn it off.

So you are one of those residents of Colorado Springs that keeps their home’s air conditioning on until the absolute end of summer.  Even you have to admit that it is time to switch from a/c to heat!  In doing so, there some helpful tips that you should know before you shut off that air conditioning system until next summer.

Here are some of them –

1.  Is your thermostat outdated?

2.  Check for wear and tear in your duct work.

3.  Look at all of your home’s vents.

4.  Check the drain line.

I know, you don’t want to mess with your whole home air conditioning system in September.  Of course, you don’t have to, but you may be running the risk of a glitch on the first hot day of 2020.  We hope you’ll think of us for all of your home’s heating and air conditioning needs.  We are Altitude Heating and Air serving the Colorado Springs area at (719) 209-4955.

Repair it or Replace it…That is the Question.

If you live in your Colorado Springs home long enough your sump pump will eventually become an issue.  Many people in our area know that a sump pump is an essential plumbing fixture in their household.  In case you have taken it for granted, your sump pump prevents flooding by removing storm water that can accumulate in the basement of your home. 

“It” (Don’t be scared by the upcoming movie) is living alone in your basement in a bit of a hole and is called a sump pit.  It usually remains out of sight out of mind.  However, its task is immense.  It keeps running when needed to make a stand between your basement and the devastating aftermath of a flood that enters the rest of your beautiful home.

Before that emergency occurs, it may be time to decide if your sump pump needs to be repaired or replaced.  Unless you are a qualified plumber, you may not know.  Those that DO know in Colorado Springs are the sump pump troubleshooters at Altitude Heating and Air.  Give them a call for a thorough sump pump inspection at (719) 209-4955.
