The worst thing you can do is neglect your system when it’s not in use just for it to be dysfunctional when you need it most. If you fail to maintain your system, more and more issues may accumulate and end up costing you an unnecessary fortune. Titan’s lets you know the three main points of midseason cleaning:   Air filters – one of the simplest yet beneficial things you can get into the routine of doing is regularly replacing your air filters. Dirty filters can restrict air flow and even do some permanent damage if not replaced. By doing this regularly, you can elongate the life of your system and even expect a better performance from your system along with lower energy bills. Evaporators – evaporator coils along with the pan underneath should be cleaned annually (if your system uses one). Try using a brush with stiff bristles to scrub and clean the items gently then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Condenser – a condenser is an essential part of an HVAC system and can get dirty easily due to its outdoor location. Although a professional is required to clean it properly, homeowners can prevent issues by making sure external items don’t get near or in the condenser. Items such as grass, debris, dirt and seeds should be avoided in this area.   Overall you can’t go wrong with contacting your local HVAC professional to inspect and maintain the system itself. Make sure your get your system maintained so you can protect the device that keeps you comfortable all year! Show your system that you care and it’ll take care of you – call Titan’s today for all your HVAC needs 651-714-8931. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

[vc_row][vc_column][qodef_custom_font font_family="Archivo" font_size="60px" line_height="70px" font_weight="700" text_align="left" content_custom_font="Common Air Conditioner Problems And Solutions" color="#000000"][vc_empty_space height="20px"][vc_column_text]The middle of summer is the worst time to have your air conditioner act up. Even if your system is regularly maintained, there is still a slight chance you may be a victim of these common air conditioner problems. Read on to find out if you’re in one of these situations and how to resolve them.   Refrigerant leaks – the refrigerant is an essential component of the air conditioning cooling process. It removes heat from the air to leave just the cool air remaining. Every air conditioner is charged with the amount of refrigerant specified by the manufacturer and that refrigerant then gets transported throughout the refrigerant lines in your central air conditioner or heat pump system. Leaks can occur for a variety of reasons, any of which will greatly reduce your HVAC system’s ability to cool your home to the desired temperature. If you have noticed a drastic reduction in performance or suspect that your refrigerant is leaking, make sure to call your HVAC repair technician immediately. Titan’s HVAC will not only detect your leak and seal it but we’ll recharge your refrigerant to the appropriate amount. Drainage problems –within the cooling process, condensation naturally forms and needs to be properly drained from your system. To achieve this, your system has a condensate drain line and drip pan but if these components were to have dirt or debris clogging them, functionality can be hindered. Clogged drain lines can cause the drip pan to fill with water, which can overflow and cause damage to ceilings, furniture, flooring, and anything else in the water’s path. Ask about having your system fitted with a float switch in the drain pan that will automatically shut off your system when the water is in danger of overflowing. This is a great preventive measure, but can also cause your home’s temperature to rise because the air conditioner will not turn on. Call Titan’s for HVAC service if you suspect you have a drainage issue. Your tech will clear the clog and present additional options to prevent future issues. Frozen Evaporator Coils – a dirty air filter or dirt and debris coming into the unit can cause restricted air flow and can eventually cause evaporator coils to freeze into a block of ice. Call your technician so that they can properly de-ice your coils and get your system cooling again.   Don’t let any of these common issues stand in your way of the comfort you deserve. Call Titan’s Heating and Cooling at 651-714-8931 for your professional repair solutions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

We rely heavily on this appliance to keep us warm throughout the harsh Minnesota winters, so why not show your furnace some TLC with maintenance service?   Improving Efficiency Your furnace (or air conditioner) is typically the most energy-consuming appliance in your home. Having the potential to use so much energy, it’s important to ensure that your furnace is running at its peak efficiency to keep those monthly bills as low as possible. From having a clogged filter to having loose or leaky parts, every component of the system affects its operation, lifespan, energy consumption, and ultimately the numbers you see on your monthly bill. Make sure to call for your annual furnace maintenance to guarantee your system is working at its best.   Prevent More Expensive Repairs Calling in for annual furnace maintenance can allow the homeowner to think about their furnace as little as possible in the long run. Not only does annual maintenance ensure that your furnace is optimally performing, but you have the peace of mind that your technician has detected and fixed all minor and developing issues. Rather than dealing with larger and more expensive issues in the future, get ahead of the curve and get your furnace maintained today.   All Around Comfort Not only are you saving yourself money and preventing future headaches, but you’re also locking in a comfortable home all season. Annual furnace maintenance has also shown to improve indoor air quality as well. This is a significant benefit to those who suffer from allergies or other health problems.   Minimize the headache of emergency repairs, eliminate the shock of high energy bills, and enjoy an entire season and more of comfort – ALL WITH ANNUAL FURNACE MAINTENANCE!

Investing in this “new” technology can provide many advantages including increased comfort and efficiency, less noise, and tons of savings on your energy bills.   A single-stage furnace has two options – off and on. So when your temperatures are below your desired setpoint, it will work at 100% power to adjust, ultimately increasing your energy consumption and bills. A two-stage furnace has three options including off, 100% capacity (full speed), and 50% capacity, which allows a little more room for efficiency. But with a modulating furnace, its speed will vary based on what your home comfort demands. Not only will a modulating variable speed furnace efficiently heat up your home at lower costs, but it has a more quiet operation, provides summer comfort and savings due to its low speeds, and improved air humidity control and air filtration.   Rheem modulating variable speed furnaces is a powerful addition to your home heating that can deliver more comfort than any single speed furnace with Variable-speed ECM motor, Modulating operation, 98% AFUE, and more.   Invest in modulating variable speed furnaces and invest in long-term savings. Titan’s can help with your modulating variable speed furnace installations or help determine the correct furnace type for your home’s size and needs. Call us today at (651) 714-8931 and make sure you’re optimizing your comfort and savings this winter![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

Here are our top 5 recommendations on changes you can make to save energy and money.   1. Replace your inefficient equipment with Energy Star products – One of the best investments you can make for your home is to replace your inefficient equipment with Energy Star products. Over time, you can see the benefits energy efficient products do as far as using less energy and lowering your bills. 2. Have your replacement done by a professional HVAC installer – Not only is the product important to your energy efficiency, but oftentimes the installation can be even more important. Whether or not your system is properly installed can determine how efficient your equipment is actually performing. 3. Seal your air leaks – Make sure to have your home audited to ensure the foundation of what your system is “built on” is solid. Have your technician make sure that all leaks are sealed both in your home and your ductwork. 4. Install a smart/programmable thermostat – Thermostats are oftentimes considered the powerhouse of the heating and AC system. Now, these “powerhouses” can learn your behavior or you can easily set it to your schedule at the touch of your mobile device. Have the programmable thermostat set your temperature a couple of degrees warmer/colder when you’re away at work or when you’re sleeping. Having your thermostat do this can end up saving you plenty on your energy bills. 5. Get a spring AC tune up – Although it may still be a bit chilly now, it won’t be long until you need your trusty AC system. By getting your AC tune up, you can ensure how trusty your AC system will really be when you need it. Make sure to maintain your system to elongate their life and to ensure proper operation. Titan’s is offering a Spring Check Up for only $99 (originally priced at $149). This offer is only valid until May 31st so call us today – 651-714-8931![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

We all understand how important it is to keep comfortable in the cold months, but sometimes the heating bill can be suspiciously high. Knowing exactly where or why your bill is so high can help you not only understand your electricity habits but can help you keep your costs down as well.   Additional laundry You need a lot of protection during the winter including layers, heavy coats, blankets, and more, meaning you will naturally have more loads of laundry. The more frequent you use your washer and dryer, the higher your electricity and heating may be.   Poor insulation If your home isn’t properly insulation (older homes tend to not be insulated well), you may be losing heat through leaky windows and doors. Leaks in your home will cause the temperature to not be as warm as intended, causing you to crank up the temperature even more which results in an even higher energy bill. Solution: Increase your insulation by adding weatherstrips around doors or add extra protection with plastic sheeting to your windows. Install a humidifier to raise humidity in house so it feels warmer.   Old or inefficient furnace The most important factor to your heating and cooling bill is at its source – your system itself. Solution: If your system is 10-15 years or older and is requiring frequent repairs, you may need to consider replacing it with a new, energy-efficient system. If your system is not older than 10-15 years but has not been serviced recently, it could be struggling to reach optimal performance. Make sure to schedule a repair asap before a minor issue becomes a major one.   Make sure to contact Titan’s if you need your system replaced or repaired so that we can get your bills lower and save you money in the long run!
