Residential Heating and Air Conditioning

Live life in comfortable bliss every day

Whether you are building a new home or have a beautiful historic home your goal is the same – you want to be comfortable every day. Often with existing homes come older heating systems and ductwork. When you build a home, you want to ensure that your new residence is as comfortable and energy-efficient as possible. No matter if your home is just being built or is 100 years old, choosing the right HVAC system is an important decision and takes expertise to get right. 

 

Choose the Right HVAC System for Long-Lasting Comfort

A heating and cooling system is a significant investment so you want to get the most out of it. Most HVAC systems last about 15 to 20 years depending on if it is sized properly and is regularly maintained.  

Having an oversized or undersized system will speed up the wear and tear on your HVAC system. It may seem counterintuitive but an oversized system will make a system less efficient. Being too large for your home will cause the system to cycle on and off frequently, producing excess wear and tear on the components. And your system may never reach peak operating temperatures.

And good shoppers know that quality systems over their lifetime will have fewer headaches and a longer warranty for those times you need it. Jacobs Heating & Air Conditioning consultants will help you properly install or retrofit your home with high-quality HVAC equipment and accessories that will keep you and your family comfortable all year long.
