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.
I had them replace my furnace last year. When it came time for the air conditioner this year, I did not hesitate to call Twintech again. I will also have them perform regular maintenance on them.
We required a new HVAC replacement after running the old
system for 18 years.
Dave understood our requirements and gave us a quote that
covered all the necessary items.
Installation was fast and very tidy. Everything works as
it should. Our thanks to Greg, Mitch and others for their
excellent work. Recommend this family owned business to
anyone else, considering HVAC or other work.
I needed a new furnace and A/C to replace my 21 yr. old units, and went to the internet to view potential companies in May, I received 3 quotes,
and chose Twintech based on their salesman Dave who was very detailed and covered off everything on what Twintech was all about,
an extremely dedicated company with so many years of experience, and after reading the on line reviews I was sold on Twintech, who did not disappoint as the installation team were top notch with Greg leading,
I would highly recommend this company without any doubts, in my books they are first class all the way. Our new Amana furnace and A/C are working perfectly !
Flawless transaction. They did exactly what they promised, showed-up on time, cleaned-up, and were highly professional. Highly recommended.
Salesperson and 2 man installation team were all professional and
knew their stuff. All three were friendly and helpful, answering all
my questions. The quality of their work demonstrated their experience
and expertise in their field.
A dear late cousin of mine recommended this company and I have been happy with the service.
We are very pleased with the work done by Twintech. They were very professional from start to finish. Dave came to our home and gave us a very competitive quote for new high efficiency furnace and air conditioner. The installers were very courteous and professional. We would highly recommend them.
Great experience getting an old furnace replaced.
Sales Guy (Dave) was great - honest, responsive, and friendly.
The work itself was done quickly and we are very happy with the outcome, thank you! We recommend TwinTech!
This review is late coming so my apologies to the amazing Twin Tech team! I contacted Dave at Twin Tech for a quote this past Feb (as I was collecting a few) and his recommendation was excellent. From the first meeting with Dave to the team installing the new furnace, not once did i feel uncomfortable . The team were extremely professional yet personable and clean and tidy. Decent companies still exist!
The new furnace just purrs and its just amazing the difference it has made!
(PS my sibling ended up getting a furnace from them as well)
The service was Twintech was excellent.
Dave our salesperson was easy to talk to and was professional. The unit recommended meets our needs and budget.
Greg and his team arrived on time for the installation and even got rid of the garbage the contractors left in our furnace.
Would definitely recommend Twintech.
Very pleased with the professional service that TwinTech Heating and Cooling provided in replacing my furnace. I got several quotes from different service providers. Their price was excellent and they explained the features very well. We are very glad we went with TwinTech and highly recommend their services.
We were new homeowners in need of a second opinion. TwinTech Heating & Cooling were Amazing and professional. Very knowledgeable and great service all around. Recommend to anyone looking for honest and reliable services. Treated with respect and care. Thank you Greg, Mitch and Bob!
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!
Amazing experience with TwinTech Heating & Cooling! Their team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. They installed my new furnace quickly and left everything spotless. The technicians took the time to explain everything and made sure I was comfortable with the system before they left. Great customer service and fair pricing. 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.
