Dispelling Common HVAC Myths – Eleet Home Services

Elise O,

At Eleet Home Services, we understand that there are many myths and misconceptions surrounding AC repair and HVAC systems. In this blog post, we’ll debunk some of the most prevalent myths to help you make informed decisions about your home’s comfort and energy efficiency.

Myth 1: Closing Vents Will Save Energy

Many homeowners believe that closing vents in unused rooms can help save energy. However, this is a myth. Your HVAC system is designed to distribute air evenly throughout your home, and closing vents can actually increase energy consumption by causing your system to work harder. It’s better to keep vents open and adjust the thermostat to maintain a comfortable temperature.

Myth 2: Bigger is Always Better for Air Conditioners

It’s a common misconception that a larger air conditioning unit will cool your home more effectively. In reality, an oversized unit will cycle on and off more frequently, leading to uneven cooling, increased energy consumption, and premature wear and tear. Professional air conditioning installation is crucial to ensure that your unit is properly sized for your home’s square footage and insulation levels.

Myth 3: HVAC Maintenance is Unnecessary

Many homeowners overlook the importance of regular HVAC maintenance, believing that their system will function properly without it. However, neglecting maintenance can lead to various issues, including:

  • Decreased energy efficiency
  • Shorter lifespan of the system
  • Poor indoor air quality
  • Increased risk of breakdowns

Regular professional maintenance can help prevent these problems and ensure that your HVAC system operates at peak performance.
