Reuters published a terrifying story last week about the effects of air pollution on our health. It turns out that a “moderate” air quality day as compared to a “good” air quality day brings a higher risk of stroke in addition to other ailments.

If, while inspecting your attic, you run across any of these issues, it is probably time to contact a HVAC professional.

Plugged drains happen.  They usually happen at the most inopportune time.  I remember, as a child, my dad trying to fix a clogged toilet on Christmas (we learned a lot of new words that day). Later in life, I remember trying to fix a clogged sink, hours before a party (I repeated a lot of words I learned from my dad that day).  So, what are the causes of these obnoxious pipe guests and what can we do to keep them at bay?

CNN reported on a powerful new app from the EPA that allows users to enter a zip code and receive information about pollutants and ozone levels around the United States. The app currently gives information for 400 cities around the countries.

Geothermal systems make use of the energy in the earth's surface and drive heating and air conditioning system for both residential and commercial uses. The result is a green or natural heat pump that saves energy and benefits the environment.  For more information, check out our sister site: www.MichiganGeothermal.com.

There are lots of options when it comes to programmable and digital thermostats, but none are as smart as the ecobee Smart Thermostat.

The ecobee stat is a wi-fi enabled stat that allows you to see your home temperature from anywhere with an available internet connection.  You can update your settings remotely; keep an eye on your system’s performance and even receive alerts if your system falls outside any thresholds you’ve set.  This is an ideal stat for anyone with summer/vacation homes.

Energy recovery ventilation (ERV) is the energy recovery process of exchanging the energy contained in normally exhausted building or space air and using it to treat the incoming outdoor ventilation air in residential and commercial HVAC systems. During the warmer seasons, the system pre-cools and dehumidifies while humidifying and pre-heating in the cooler seasons. One more way Haley Mechanical can lower your monthly bills!

It may not look like it, but this ten-year old furnace was almost a silent killer; it was leaking the deadly gas carbon monoxide.  Many factors can lead to a furnace leaking carbon monoxide, but regular maintenance on you furnace can drastically reduce the likelihood of this happening.  Many times carbon monoxide is the result of incomplete combustion; this happens when your furnace is not running at peak performance.  Adding an inexpensive maintenance contract could not only save you money, but quite possibly your life.  If you live in the Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, Dexter, Chelsea, Saline, Milan, Manchester, Pinckney, Jackson, Grass Lake, Howell, Whitmore Lake, Brighton, South Lyon or Gregory area, contact Haley Mechanical (734-424-9170) for more information on a maintenance contract or a tune-up on your furnace.
