OMG! Wall Returns Are Costing You Money and Comfort!

Jim Clarke • January 8, 2019

I hate to belabor the point but everyday we are coming across horrendous wall returns. For those of you who are just tuning in, you have a wall return, if you put your AC filter in a grill on the wall or door instead of the ceiling.

Here’s the problem, wall returns have a chase or tunnel, if you will, that leads to the return part of your air conditioner in the attic. 99 times out of a 100 the inside of the return isn’t properly sealed allowing your AC unit to pull in unconditioned air from the attic and walls which kills the efficiency of your AC system. Not only does it kill efficiency but it causes higher utility bills, makes your home more humid and less comfortable………… and wall returns can actually shorten the life of your AC system by overworking it!

SO HERE IS THE KEY: IF YOU PUT YOUR AC FILTER IN A GRILL ON THE WALL OR ON A CLOSET DOOR, CALL ME!

Lower your energy bills, live more comfortably.

What is a Blower Door test?

By Jim Clarke • June 16, 2017

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.
