When the temperature gets to be unbearable most of us are going to be holed up at home trying to stay comfortable and dry. As long as your air conditioner is working well, your home should be able to provide a comfortable environment during those swelteringly hot days, right? Not necessarily. Yes, your air conditioner is going to be a main component to your comfort but there are other factors, like your Miami attic insulation, that will affect your home environment too.
We know that may sound strange but it is true. Your attic insulation plays a big role in keeping your home comfortable all year long actually. How? By reducing heat exchange in and out of the house. Insulation helps with your air quality too! It helps with a lot of things to be honest. Let’s take a quick look at why your insulation is so important to your comfort this summer and beyond.
Imagine what would happen if you could see molecular particles. You would probably be a lot more disturbed when you realized just how dusty or dirty your home’s air quality was. We talk about indoor air quality a bit but sometimes it is harder to impress upon people just how important it is–if we could see the bits in the air that were swirling around, that would likely make things a lot easier on us but a bit more concerning for you.
While some parts of the country are still trying to keep warm, here in Florida, it feels like the heat has been turned up too high. With temperatures that are getting closer to the triple digits than anything else, we are all depending on our air conditioners a lot more.
With everyone spending extended amounts of time in their homes, your home comfort levels are going to be even more important than usual. Staying at home is certainly going to be a lot harder if your air conditioning system isn’t working. That is why you want to make sure that you are keeping your AC unit in the best possible shape it can be in.
Heat pumps tend to be the main home climate control systems found around Homestead. This is because they have the ability to both cool your home down (which they will be used to do most of the year) and heat the home (on those few days of the year here in Florida when the temperatures drop far enough.)
Your thermostat is a seemingly minor yet highly vital part of your HVAC system. Aside from occasionally adjusting the temperature or switching between heating and cooling mode, you might not spend much time considering your thermostat’s role in your home comfort.
