Summer’s a time to enjoy the fresh air. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case in your home. In many cases, indoor air quality is worse than outdoors. And, since people spend approximately 90 percent of their time inside, indoor air pollution is important to consider. The air is often dirtier inside because pollutants that make their way into your home... 
The summer is great. BBQs, trips to the beach and going to the pool. One thing no one gets excited about during the summer is a heat wave. It's generally too hot to comfortably stay outside all day, and when you're inside you have to make sure the AC is cranked up. There are some simple things you can do... 
Even with a central air conditioner, not every part of the house cools appropriately. The most common problem we hear is that the bedrooms upstairs are always too warm.

Between basements and top floor bedrooms, it's not always easy to achieve the same consistent temperature throughout every room in your home. Often, bedrooms will be too hot, or basements will be too cool. But, the temperature is set correctly and the... 
Dragging out the old window air conditioning units again for the summer? It can be a grueling task every year. Taking the window units out, putting them back in, avoiding the dripping water from the unit. They can be effective, but often don't do a perfect job, and have more drawbacks than advantages when it comes to cooling a specific... 
Spring is here! With hot weather is right around the corner, it's important to make sure your air conditioner is ready to go for the summer. Waiting for the first really hot day of the season to turn it on and hope that it's working is not a smart thing. You want to prepare now, that way if there is... 
There are a lot of older homes in the Main Line and Havertown areas. They weren't designed with the same kind of heating and cooling equipment that we use today. That can lead to a lot of comfort and energy issues if they aren't addressed. That was the case in this three-story twin home in Ardmore, PA. Their old oil...
