Our Record High Was 92 Degrees Fahrenheit

OK, before you think that is a crazy number for the Phoenix Metro area we are talking about the record high for November 7th and that is really very warm for this time of year. I guess we should feel lucky that our high was only eighty-five degrees today.

It is like we need to have two different outfits to wear.  It was in the mid-forties when I got up this morning and the thermometer on my dashboard read eighty-nine degrees late this afternoon. That was a warming change of over forty degrees Fahrenheit in about eight or nine hours.  Welcome to the Valley of the Sun, even in the fall and winter.

With the daily high running to almost ninety degrees it may seem strange to be talking about getting your furnace or HVAC system tuned-up for the winter.  But, now is a great time to call Aaron’s Mechanical Service at 623-388-4436 and find a time that works best for your appointment.

In the next few days our daytime high will drop back into the seventies.  As we said in a previous blog these should well be the last eighty degree plus days we see this year.

So get your heating system up and running and keep your home toasty warm and you comfortable.

Have you heard? “Save 50% On Your Utility Bills!” is that possible?

You may have heard that air conditioners, heat pumps and furnaces have come a long way in the last 10 years.  The most energy efficient air conditioner of ten years ago is the bottom of the line now. In fact, a 1992 Federal law forced the manufacturers to stop making extremely inefficient units.

You’ll hear a lot of industry jargon while talking to contractors, like “SEER”, “HSPF” and “AFUE”.  These terms basically describe how efficiently the equipment operates, like miles per gallon for a car.  The higher the efficiency number, the lower your electric and gas bills are supposed to be.

Contractors and manufacturers will tell you that a new high efficiency system won’t really cost you much, if anything, because the investment is offset by up to 50% savings on monthly utility bills.  But does this really happen?

A few homeowners actually do save 25% to 50% on their utility bills after buying a new system.  But an unfortunate reality is that most people see only some savings.  And there are some people who haven't even saved a dime.   Only a small fraction of newly installed systems reduce utility bills by the amount they are capable of, or that maybe anticipated.

There is simply a lot more to efficient operation than the manufacturers’ ratings.  Efficiency numbers are measured in a controlled, ideal laboratory setting.  A lot can and does go wrong when a contractor takes the equipment out into the real world and installs it in your home. Most homeowners are simply not getting the efficiency they are paying for.
