New AC Units Don’t Fix All Old Problems!
AC Unit in a house in Baton Rouge, LA
When a New AC Unit is installed, that doesn’t mean everything is made new. AC companies focus on the new unit and, most of the time, don’t pay any attention to the return or previously installed duct work. We look at the system as a whole and make sure it is sealed as tight as possible. The air that your system conditions should go into your home, not your attic. Your AC return should only be receiving air that the system has already conditioned, not hot humid air from the attic. These two simple concepts will 1. Lower your energy bills 2. Make your home feel more comfortable 3. Extend the life of your system. My teams will do the work necessary to drop your leakage well below industry standards lowering your energy bills and helping you to live more comfortably. Contact us to learn more.

This is a question that we frequently receive, as well as a topic in which we discuss with customers on nearly every job we do. When we visit a home and begin to determine what their specific energy reduction needs might be, a Blower Door test is one of the most powerful and revealing tools which we utilize. As our primary goal is turning your home into an efficient “ice chest,” we need to apply the same principles as ice chest incorporates. One thing that’s obvious about an ice chest is that the lid has to be kept shut to keep the ice from melting. The same concept applies for your home. We need to keep indoor and outdoor air separated. There are many little gaps and cracks, over here and hidden through there, which allow outside air to enter the house, or Building Envelope to be exact.
We visit nearly 20 homes per week in the Greater Baton Rouge area. 95% of those homes have insulation that is inadequate for the climate we live in.
