Summer will be here before we know it here in the Lawton, Duncan, and Fort Sill area. Is your home ready to take on the heat? Luckily, Pippin Brothers can help you prepare for the warmer weather ahead with our comprehensive home performance services.
From air conditioning maintenance and home insulation, to indoor air quality and humidity control, we have everything you need to stay cool, comfortable, and healthy this summer—and for many more to come. Here’s our summer efficiency guide:
1. Schedule AC Maintenance
It’s always a good idea to get cooling system maintenance before the summer heat really sets in. That way, you can avoid high cooling bills or an unexpected AC breakdown when you need it most.
At Pippin Brothers, not only do we provide full-service cooling system checks, but we also offer premium maintenance agreements with our Pippin Partner Plan. For a low monthly fee, you’ll get annual heating and cooling tune-ups, discounts on AC repair, and more.
Tip: Install a programmable thermostat to enhance your cooling efficiency, which gives you control over your HVAC system from anywhere with a Wi-Fi connection.
2. Upgrade Your Home’s Insulation
Improving your home’s insulation is beneficial for its efficiency, comfort, and health. By creating a protective barrier separating your living spaces from the outdoors, it reduces both heat loss in the winter and heat gain throughout the summer.
We only use the highest quality insulation materials at Pippin Brothers, and provide new or retrofit installation services. We also specialize in areas prone to energy loss and indoor air quality issues with attic & crawl space insulation or duct system repair and replacement.
Tip: Find out exactly what your home needs with an energy audit, and get a customized plan for improving your home.
3. Ensure Proper Air Distribution
Imbalanced airflow can make your cooling system work harder in order to keep you cool and comfortable, adding unnecessary wear & tear. In many cases, poorly installed or leaky ducts are the root cause of air distribution issues, leading to significant energy loss, poor indoor air quality, and more.
Pippin Brothers offers full ductwork services and can help determine if your air ducts are causing efficiency and comfort issues throughout your home. In addition to repairs and replacements, we also provide duct cleaning & sanitizing to help eliminate indoor pollutants.
Tip: For hard-to-cool rooms in your home that your duct system might not reach, consider installing a mini split heat pump for ductless heating & cooling year-round.
4. Control Indoor Humidity
Whether your home has too much or too little, indoor humidity problems can lead to high cooling costs and long-term indoor air quality issues. Installing a humidifier or dehumidifier in your home can provide humidity control for your home.
Our home performance experts at Pippin Brothers can provide humidity control solutions with a wide selection of options, including standalone systems or ones with a direct connection to your HVAC or ductwork.
Tip: Consider air quality testing to identify exactly what’s in your home’s breathing air. Our IAQ services include infrared inspections, carbon monoxide testing, and more.
