Make Your Home Comfier with These Great Tips

The summer heat, as well as the humidity, can make your home just as comfortable as it is during the winter, but there are some things that you can do and tools that you can use to keep your abode as comfortable as possible – no matter how hot it gets outdoors.


 Here are some few great tips that will help you beat the heat and that will keep you as cool as possible throughout the summer months: OPEN THE WINDOWS AT THE RIGHT TIME.


 As tempting as it is to open up the windows and to let some fresh air into your home, know that the best time to open your windows is when you know that the air outside is cooler than the air inside your home.


If you open your windows when it is hot outside will only make your home feel hotter.


Remember that hot air rises, so you can make a natural draft in your home just by simply opening up the windows on your lower floor – preferable on the shadier side – as well as the windows upstairs that are located on the hotter side of your property.


You can also place a window-mounted fan in the window upstairs.


 CHECK YOUR HOME’S INSULATION.


 Insulation is known to you warm throughout the winter, but the right insulation can also keep your home cooler during the summer.


Simply put, if there are some areas in your home where air can leak from the outside, then there will also be less hot air that can penetrate and drive the temperature up inside your home.


If you locate air leaks, then make sure to seal them off if you want to save on energy bills.


It is a wise move to add additional insulation whenever necessary if you want to save even more money and you want to remain more comfortable.


 BE WISE WITH YOUR LANDSCAPING.


 It is good to take steps inside your home, but remember, you can also take steps outside of your house to keep every room cool throughout the summer.


For instance, you should consider planting some trees and shrubs near the east-facing and west-facing windows of your property.


These plants and trees will provide shade from the harsh summer rays, thus, promoting a cooler temperature inside your home.


If, however, you cannot plant these shrubs or trees, you can instead set up curtains or blinds that can help perform the same duty from the inside of your home.

My old furnace had finally broken down for the last time when contacted twintech to have a new furnace installed…They were prompt, knowledgeable and very reasonably priced. They did such a great job i tell all my friends and family about this company.

by Damien McIsaac. Ajax on Twintech Heating and Cooling

To whom it may concern, I recently had TwinTech (Greg and Grant Dainty) replace my furnace and service both my gas fireplaces and air conditioning unit. They were professional, courteous and very fair in their pricing. I would gladly recommend TwinTech to anyone needing work done. I can be contacted at 905-626-XXXX.

by Blair N. - Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

My Fiancé and I have relied on Twintech Heating and Cooling now for the better part of the last 10 years. In that time, Greg has installed a furnace, an air conditioner, and a heat-pump at our residence in Toronto. In each instance Greg and his team were a pleasure to deal with. They were courteous and professional throughout the whole process and the quality of their work is first rate. Our experiences have always been extremely positive and we have referred his services numerous times to our friends and family. Without hesitation, I would recommend Greg and TwinTech Heating and Cooling to anyone looking to service or replace their existing heat/AC equipment

by Ruth on Twintech Heating and Cooling

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!

I highly recommend them for anyone needing HVAC services!

Great experience all around. Bob was sharp and easy to talk to, and Greg handled the installation perfectly. Would hire them again in a heartbeat.
