Beat The Heat Summer Tip - Filter and Indoor Air Quality

One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning® Indoor Air Quality experts can convert your heating and cooling system into a whole-house Air Treatment Center. To control these pollutants that are injurious to your health, advanced air cleaning systems like the MicroPower Guard ^® are designed to remove the smallest particles from the air; while the OxyQuantum ^® UV lights will control both the germs and gasses in your home. As an example, particles that are 5 microns or smaller will pass through your lungs as you breathe, while 98% of all air particles are less than 1 micron. And, the smaller the particle, the greater the health hazard. Store bought filters cannot remove these smallest of allergens and have no capability of having any effect on germs and gasses.

The EPA recommends that you have your air ducts, heating and cooling systems inspected first by a professional heating and cooling contractor. If your One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning® technician discovers that your air ducts have substantial visible mold, dust, dirt, and other contaminants or a musty odor, they may recommend duct cleaning. This is especially important if someone in your household suffers from asthma, allergies, or other symptoms that may be related to indoor air pollution. Although duct cleaning alone has never been shown to actually prevent health problems, it is an important step in a whole-house air cleaning strategy. The One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning® technician can perform ductwork installation to meet your system requirements.

Much of the dirt and dust that accumulates in the ducts adheres to the duct surfaces and to the furnace and air conditioning components. This does not mean that it necessarily becomes airborne and enters our breathing space. However, this accumulation is a perfect breeding ground for mold, bacteria, and other fungi that are definite sources of indoor air pollution. It also reduces the efficiency of your heating and cooling system.

At One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning^®, we can share with you your whole house Air Treatment Center options to clean, disinfect and deodorize the air in your home 24 hours a day, naturally and without chemicals; then you can decide which best fits your concerns and needs.

What is a FURNACE?

Furnaces

What's up with the cold draft in my home?

When it comes to repairing and providing maintenance for furnaces, you can rest assured that your investment will be protected when you use One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning®.

A home furnace is a major appliance that is permanently installed to provide heat to an interior space through intermediary fluid movement, which may be air, steam, or hot water. The most common fuel source for modern combustion furnaces in the United States is natural gas; other common fuel sources include propane (LP), fuel oil, coal or wood. In some cases electric resistance heating is used as the source of heat, especially where the cost of electricity is low. Combustion furnaces always need to be vented to the outside. Traditionally, this is through a flue, which expels heat along with the exhaust.

Central Warm-Air Furnace: A central warm-air furnace is a type of space-heating equipment in which a central combustor or resistance unit--generally using gas, fuel oil, or electricity--provides warm air that circulates through ducts leading to the various rooms.

• A forced-air furnace is one in which a fan is used to force the air through the ducts. This is the most common in the Baton Rouge Area
• In a gravity furnace, air is circulated by gravity, relying on the natural flow of warm air up and cold air down; the warm air rises through ducts and the cold air falls through ducts that return it to the furnace to be reheated, thus completing the circulation cycle. (more common in northern climates)

The furnace typically is divided into three primary components:

• The burner (includes the heat exchanger, draft inducer and venting) - The flame originates at the burners and is drawn into the heat exchanger by the negative pressure produced by the draft inducer. The hot gasses produced by the combustion of the flame pass through the chambers of the heat exchanger and heat the metal walls of the heat exchanger. The gasses cool as they transfer the heat to the heat exchanger and are at about 120 degrees as they exit on a high efficiency furnace. The cooled gasses then enter the draft inducer blower and are pushed into the venting pipes. The exhaust gasses then are directed out of the house through the vent pipes.
• The blower and air movement - The blower creates a negative pressure on the intake side which draws air into the ductwork return air system and blows the air out through the heat exchanger and then into supply air ductwork to distribute throughout the home.
• Controls and Safety Devices - The controls include a gas valve, ignition control, ignitor, flame sensor, transformer, limit control, blower control board, and flame roll out switch. A limit control is a safety device that will open the electrical circuit to the ignition control and stop the gas flow if the furnace over heats. The flame roll out switch does the same thing if the flame was rolling out of the heat exchanger instead of being completely induced into it by the draft inducer.

Central furnaces should be checked for SAFE OPERATION and tuned-up annually. The best time is just prior to the heating season and prior to any regular use of your central heating unit or furnace. Furnaces left unchecked can be a major health, fire, and carbon monoxide hazard.

One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning® can help you make the best decision on which furnace maintenance service or plan is best for you.

Time Running Out on Federal Tax Credit for A/C

Up to $4000 in Incentives on New Central Air Conditioning & Heat.... Expires soon!

- Li Little Known Programs Helps us trade-in old, non-compliant Freon systems

This is great news for you and your wallet if your central A/C is over 8 years old or still runs on theOLD FREON.

Please allow me to explain…

As recently publicized by USA Today, it is a little known, and a somewhat inconvenient fact that Home Central A/C’s using R-22 (most commonly know as ‘FREON’) are no longer being made as of this past January 2010. Central A/C’s made today now use 'Puron' (R410A), a more efficient, environmentally sound refrigerant than the Old Freon. Puron has actually been used in Home A/C’s since 1996, but has only penetrated a small portion of the market because of a lack of urgency, until now.

This phase out step is a Federally mandated requirement originally set in motion by the Clean Air Act of 1992. You may even remember when this happened with our cars in 1992. However, unlike our cars, existing central A/C cannot use Puron because it is compressed at a much higher pressure and requires newer, different equipment.

This now leaves the majority of homeowners in the U.S. just like you, sitting on Obsolete, ‘Old Freon’ systems to cool their home.

My company, One Hour Air Conditioning, is one of North America’s leaders and Experts in Home Service, and I have put together an exclusive ‘National Comfort Compliance’ (NCC) Program to help homeowners replace their now ‘Obsolete’ FREON systems. This program takes advantage of three (3) separate, little known programs to help minimize the investment impact of installing a Compliant Central A/C system that is 2010 Federally compliant:

#1 - A $1500 Federal Tax rebate

Good timing for you. As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment act, a credit of up to $1500 has been made available for qualifying systems being installed, many of which qualify under the NCC Program. Better yet, we provide written certification and provide all necessary paperwork to take full advantage of this little used program which ends 12/31/2010!

#2 - up to $2700 NCC Cash Trade-in allowance

There is normally no trade-in for older, Freon style systems, but I am willing to give you up to an additional $2700 trade-in allowance right off the top toward any qualifying system investment.

and, Last but not least…

#3 - A special Home Improvement line of credit

You don’t even have to pay me right away. I have set up a terrific home project line of credit plan with one of America’s #1 retail financers for NO MONEY DOWN along with either 12 months no interest OR a low 9.9% APR option on all system options.

Energy Efficiency Guarantee

"These Brand New compliant systems are a dream! I’m so confident you will save at least 25% on your cooling and heating bills (most project to save more like 30% to 50%), that I will pay you double the difference for a year if you don’t! "

If these central air conditioning and heating systems were not among the best on the market, I couldn’t afford to make such a promise.

What To Do Next

Give me a call today and take advantage of our exclusive National Comfort Compliance (NCC) Program before the deadline. I can be reached at 225-752-0001. We can schedule for a Technician to come out and perform a FREE, no-obligation Compliance, and Energy analysis. At that time we will be able to share all program details and the cost on a compliant system that meets your needs and budget, a system of your choosing.

Why you must act soon

Do not wait to call me until your system breaks down at the most inconvenient time, and you will virtually be required to be compliant, with little or no incentives. Again, give me a Call at 752-0001today.

Also, the NCC Trade-in allowance, which comes out of my company’s pocket, is limited to the first 96 compliant system installations in before September 30th, 2010

Finally, the deadline for the NCC program is Friday, July 31st 2010. This deadline has been extended and set just in time for the end of the Federal tax credit program. If you think you may need a new central A/C anytime in the next 3 years, if your bills are over $200 per month, or if your old system runs on the Old Freon and has been nickeling and diming you to death....you cannot afford to wait!

Give me a call now at 752-0001 and I will set an appointment for your no-obligations survey
