New Years Resolutions for Your Home

People commonly make New Year’s resolutions for things that concern their personal lives. This year, however, you might want to consider making resolutions that involve keeping your home a safe and enjoyable place from the outside world.


Here are some HVAC resolutions you can make to ensure your system will not let you down this year:


Clean out dryer lint.


If you notice that it takes a longer time than normal for loads to dry in your clothes dryer, then it might be high time to clean out the vent. First, you should detach the duct from behind the unit and then push a plumbing snake through your dryer vent from outside. Then, tie a rag securely to the snake end. Afterwards, pull the cloth and snake through a couple of times and clean your vent. This will not only save energy but it will also prevent a fire as well.


Improve the efficiency of your hot water system.


Keep in mind that old tap water can be dangerous. Did you know that water heaters set too high can send thousands to hospitals each year with burns? Most of them are children. Safety experts recommend a setting of 120 degrees F but finding that setting is not that easy since most dials are not labeled with numbers. What you can do is run hot water at the tap closest to the water heater for at least three minutes. Fill a glass then check the temperature. If the water is above 120 degrees, adjust the dial, wait for three hours then check again. Repeat this procedure until you reach the right temperature.


Upgrade or replace windows.


If you have old windows that are old and leaky, then it may be high time to replace them with newer energy-efficient models. You can also boost their efficiency with weather stripping and storm windows. Replacing windows can result in cost savings, but the larger savings can be associated with replacing single-glazed windows.


Replace an older furnace with a high-efficiency system.


If your furnace was built before 1992, it probably wastes about 35% of the fuel it uses – and it is probably near the end of its service life. Early replacement with a condensing furnace with annual efficiency of at least 90% is your best option. You may save as much as 27% on your heating bill. If your furnace was installed after 1991, then it probably has an annual fuel utilization efficiency rating of 80%, so the savings from replacement is smaller – but at least 11% if the unit is working perfectly.


If you need help with your furnaces and hot water systems, we are here to help you. Let us improve your home for 2022 together! Give us a call today.

Our furnace was rattling, as soon as we put our air conditioner on this past week. We had researched looking for a company that was Registered with Better Business Bureau, and this company TwinTech, had A+ Rating. Scott, was immediately helpful via text/phone and sent his technician as soon as he was able...Mitchell/technician provided great professional service. Thank you TwinTech.

I contacted various companies when looking to install a new furnace and I found Twintech to be transparent with their communication and approach. They had options to suit my various requirements and the price vs quality was very good. The after installation communication was also very good and they answered all queries I had.

My furnace broke down last month. The team was quick to respond, courteous, professional and mindful of COVID-19 concerns. I highly recommend them if you are considering replacing or servicing your HVAC equipment.

by Barry on Twintech Heating and Cooling

All winter I have had an issue with very little heat reaching the 2nd floor of our home. After this past winter ended I decided to look into this. I found Twintech Heating and Cooling on line and started the process. After explaining my problem I had a call form Twintech and the tech came out and walked through things with me. The problem was the heating vent pipe had been dropped down in size by someone years ago causing little heat reaching the 2nd floor. Further into checking out the older furnace and AC they found a few things not properly installed by the last install of the old furnace and also that the AC was on it's last legs. I asked for a quote and waited a few days and we decided to go ahead with Twintech. They called a few days before to set up an installation time and date. The day of the install the guys were a half hour early which was a plus. The day of the install was great, the guys worked away removing the old furnace and AC.After which they installed the new furnace and AC. After they cleaned up the basement with all their tools and scrap metal etc. they came back inside to walk thru what they did. They also tested both the furnace and cooling systems to make sure everything worked and I the customer was happy. I now have heat on the 2nd floor for next winter. The guys from Twin tech were very professional. Their work habits and knowledge of the job was excellent. Their workmanship was just excellent, it was just up there with my standards as a homeowner. I am very pleased to have chosen Twintech for my new furnace and AC.. If I had to rate this experience with Twintech this company is a 10 in my books.Product,workmanship and customer care says it all.

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all! I did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!
