There’s something in the air.

Q&A

• What is HVAC?

  Heating, Ventilation, & Air Conditioning. It’s the industry acronym to describe your indoor air system that regulates thermal comfort and air quality.

• How do I find an HVAC technician?

  For now, search for technicians that service your area by searching “HVAC” + [your city name] or “near me” on Google. We at HVAC.com are partnering with the most trusted and skilled technicians in your area. In the coming months, we will launch a new experience that will connect you to help for your most important heating and cooling needs.

• How often should I change my air filter?

  The standard HVAC industry recommendation is to change your air filter every 3 months.

  Households with pets or individuals with allergies should change their filter every 2 months.

  Single-person households or vacation homes may only need to change their filters once a year.

• How do I get started?

  As an easy first step, air filters are usually quite simple—and cheap—to switch out on your own. (Quick tip - buy pleated air filters as opposed to non-pleated for significantly better filtration)

  It is recommended that you schedule at least an annual inspection with a licensed , local HVAC technician. Typically, local HVAC services charge a fee for a visit or may offer a free inspection with non-committal service recommendations – much like servicing your car.
