Indoor Air Quality Services
Oakes AC Services understands the importance of indoor air quality. Stricter construction standards meant to promote energy efficiency have the added effect of reducing fresh air into the home. Poor air quality can lead to a variety of health problems that include respiratory infections, headaches, and fatigue. Fortunately, there are ways to make the air in your home safer to breathe.
Our services are designed to look at your whole house system and determine what is the best solution or equipment to improve the air quality in your home or office. We can install air cleaners and purifiers, humidity control systems (humidifiers or dehumidifiers), UV lights, premium air filters, and ventilation systems that will help to remove contaminants from the air and keep your space comfortable and healthy.
Why Indoor Air Quality Services Are So Important
Most people are aware of the importance of maintaining good indoor air quality, but they may not realize how big of an impact it can have on their health. Indoor air quality services can help to remove contaminants from the air, making it safer to breathe. In addition, these services can also improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling system, resulting in lower energy bills. Furthermore, good indoor air quality can help to reduce the spread of allergens and other airborne diseases. As a result, indoor air quality services are essential for protecting the health of your family.
Ductless / Mini-Split Systems
Are you build a new home addition to add more living space to your property? Perhaps you’re doing the same by converting your garage to an extra bedroom. Extending your central HVAC system’s ductwork is a costly expense that you can avoid with a ductless installation.
If you need to cool and heat a specific room or space, consider the many advantages of installing a ductless mini-split system. Ductless is the perfect solution for applications where traditional HVAC systems are too inflexible. For single rooms or entire homes, ductless offers a variety of solutions to address almost every heating and cooling challenge. More people are installing ductless HVAC systems because of their high rate of energy efficiency and versatile application options. You can choose either a single- or multi-zone setup, and we can help you decide which is best for your living space.
Packaged Units – All in One comfort systems
What is the difference between Packaged Units and standard HVAC Systems?
A standard HVAC system is a split system with two main parts. There’s an indoor unit and an outdoor unit that work together to heat or cool your home. The indoor unit contains the evaporator and furnace, while the outdoor unit has the compressor and condenser. The conditioned air travels through ductwork to be delivered to the various rooms in your home.
With a packaged HVAC system, all of the heating and cooling components are contained within a single unit. These units are typically installed outside of your home. They are connected to your ductwork through a single hole in an outside wall. A packaged system is connected to both the supply and return air ducts. A Packaged Unit can free up space indoors, operates quietly, usually costs less to install and is energy efficient.
At Oakes AC Services, we can recommend which system would be the best option for your home. We offer both types of systems as well as any residential air conditioning and heating service you may need to keep your home as comfortable as possible.
Programmable Thermostat Installation
If you find yourself constantly fiddling with your thermostat and still not achieving the right temperature to feel comfortable in your home, don’t panic and assume your furnace is on the fritz or you need a complete central air conditioning installation. It might just be time to replace your home thermostat.
The thermostat is the control center for your entire heating and cooling system, and just like any other appliance, it undergoes wear and tear over time. It isn’t built to last forever. When your thermostat is past its prime, the home thermostat replacement experts at Oakes AC Services will be there to provide a solution. Whether your current thermostat can be repaired, or you’d like us to install a state-of-the-art programmable or smart thermostat, we’ve got you covered.
If you’re still using an old manual thermostat that’s nearing the end of its lifespan, you’ll be glad to know that you can save energy and money by upgrading to a programmable, or “smart,” thermostat.
Choosing to install a smart thermostat can reduce your energy bills, allow you to control your thermostat remotely, and pre-set temperature adjustments for when you’re home or away.
Water Heaters
There are many options to choose when installing or replacing a hot water heater. Oakes AC Services will help you make the best selection that offers the most dependability and efficiency for your home. We offer services for both traditional gas/electric tank water heaters and on-demand tankless water heaters.
Tank Water Heater units are an economical choice for smaller homes with less demand for hot water. Fuel sources for conventional water heaters include natural gas, propane, fuel oil, and electricity. All conventional water heaters store hot water 24 hours per day in a storage tank, typically ranging in volume from 20 to 120 gallons. A traditional water heater installation can be half as much as a tankless water heater. To minimize stand-by losses you should consider water heaters that offer higher levels of tank insulations. Or, have Oakes AC Services wrap your tank with a water heater blanket.
Tankless Water Heaters are compact heating units that provide hot water as it is needed and do not store hot water like traditional tank-type water heaters. When a hot water tap is turned on, water enters the tankless water heater. Thermostatically-controlled tankless water heaters vary their output temperature according to water flow rate and inlet water temperature. When water flow stops, the heating element shuts off. Unlike traditional storage tank water heaters, tankless water heaters do not store a reservoir of hot water. As a result, standby losses are reduced, which makes them an energy-efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional water heating. Tankless water heaters take up a fraction of the space of a tank heater and can be mounted inside or outside the home.
If you have noticed your water heater is not producing as much hot water as it once did, is leaking, or isn’t operating at all, you may need a water heater repair. We also recommend annual maintenance for standard and tankless hot water heaters starting the year the system is installed.
