With winter ebbing away, spring rapidly approaches, and so do warmer temperatures. As a homeowner in the Greater Harrisburg, PA area, you await the exact moment to switch on your A/C. Your family’s comfort remains your top priority, so you deserve the greatest possible efficiency and reliability at the best price. Ductless mini-split systems, which consist of one outdoor and at least one indoor remotely controllable unit, quietly and reliably regulate home temperatures. We at W.C. Eshenaur & Son, Inc. want to provide you with several reasons to adopt a ductless mini-split system. We promise you that you will not regret adopting this system.

Springtime Benefits of a Ductless Mini-Split System

1. Efficient Installation:

Skilled technicians can frequently install ductless systems within a day–a major improvement over the time expended in installing ductwork-based systems. Additionally, you won’t have to agonize over the more extensive drilling required when installing ductwork-based A/C. Ultimately, your home suffers less damage, your family experiences less discomfort, and your checking account recedes less when you opt for a ductless system.

2. Zoned Cooling:

Even in the best-insulated homes, cooling distribution may vary. This means you’ll find that some rooms receive better or more consistent cooling than others, and you might even find these patterns counterintuitive or inexplicable. Ductless systems solve this problem by implementing zone control through thermostats attached to each ductless unit. Many ductless systems feature remote control technology, enabling you to control temperatures from a distance.

4. No Ductwork:

You probably know all too well the problems posed by clogged vents, leaking ductwork, and measurement errors that afflict ductwork-based A/C systems. As the name implies, ductless systems do away with the frequently expensive and stressful renovation requirements demanded by a ductwork system. On switching to a ductless system, no longer will these stress-inducing issues loom over your horizon and eat into your pocketbook.

4. Better Air Quality:

You’ll discover that many ductless systems prove very trustworthy in filtering the air circulating within your home. Such filtration processes ensure that your home remains at a consistent and comfortable temperature, saving you energy costs you might otherwise accrue. Moreover, the multi-layered air filters used by many ductless systems remove allergens, other particulates, and even unpleasant odors from the air, improving your health in the long term.

4. Inverter Technology:

Inverter technology features as a component of many ductless systems. By adjusting compressor motor speed based on external variables, inverters maintain the efficiency of ductless systems. Installing a ductless system with inverter technology saves energy, extends equipment lifespan, and reduces your system’s sound output to the maximum degree of silence.

When the calendar turned to January, we entered the coldest month of the year here in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. With an average temperature hovering around 25° Fahrenheit, it’s important your home is ready for the brutal ice and snow that is likely to come. Winterizing your PA home is an important yearly procedure to add to your to-do list. Read on to learn W.C. Eshenaur & Son, Inc. five tips for prepping your home for a safe winter season.

Top 5 Tips for Winterizing Your PA Home

1. Put your garden hoses away.

Ice expands when it freezes, so if your hose is still outside, you risk the water in the hose freezing and bursting, ruining your hose. To avoid this, detach your hose, and store it away with your other outdoor living equipment.

2. Turn off your water and lower your heat if you head out of town.

If you plan to escape the cold and head out of town for any length of time, make sure to take the proper precautions. Turn off your home’s water access, and drain the pipes of any excess water by letting your sinks run for a few minutes. While you should leave your furnace running while you are away, you can turn your thermostat down to 55 degrees. Also, sign up for automatic heating oil or propane delivery, so your home is ready for cold weather even while you’re away.

3. Don’t let warm air escape your home.

You spend good money heating the air in your home; don’t let it escape. Run your hands along windows and doors. If you can feel cold air seeping in, warm air can get out. Apply some caulk or weather stripping to that area, and keep the heated air in your home.

4. Take care of your gutters.

It’s easy to forget about cleaning your home’s gutters during the winter, but keeping them clean is crucial to the health of your home. If your gutters clog during the winter, the water trapped in the clog can freeze, expand, and damage your gutter system or home.

5. Plan to avoid icy walkways.

Leaving a warm and cozy home to tend to snowy sidewalks is not a favorite winter activity, but keeping your walkways clear of snow and ice can help prevent serious injury or trouble. Keep ice melt on hand, and, after a snowfall, don’t forget to shovel your walkways and a path to your fuel storage tank or fill pipe.

Pennsylvania homeowners like you know how important it is to be ready for any weather. One easy way to protect your home, your family, and your budget is to upgrade your current fuel oil or propane gas heating system or equipment to a newer, higher-efficiency model. Upgrading your heating system in particular will help you spend less on heating oil or propane without sacrificing home comfort!

Why Upgrade My Oil or Propane Heating System?

When you upgrade to a new, high-efficiency heating oil or propane unit, you’re not just improving your home’s comfort levels. Investing in a new boiler or furnace will deliver significant benefits for years to come, like:

• → Better safety for your family & home
• → Reduced risk of breakdowns
• → Annual savings on fuel and repairs
• → Extended system lifespan
• → Better operating efficiency
• → Increased investment in your property
• → Fewer environmental emissions

What Qualifies a Furnace or Boiler as “High Efficiency?”

Heating equipment efficiency is measured by an annual fuel utilization efficiency rating (AFUE). These ratings describe how much heat the system gives off, taking into account the energy consumed by the equipment’s operation. Higher efficiency equipment gives you more home comfort at a reduced cost.

When’s the Best Time for an Upgrade?

If your heating system is more than 15 years old, you can save a significant amount on your heating bills by upgrading to new equipment—so the answer is, the sooner the better! Make your money go the distance and schedule your installation before or after the dead of winter to optimize your heating efficiency without sacrificing a moment of comfort.

Contact Us for an Oil or Propane Equipment Upgrade

Ready to get in touch to request a quote on your new upgrade? Don’t forget that financing is an option for our customers. Once you decide which type of equipment fits into your family’s home comfort budget, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a brand new, highly efficient HVAC system and all the fuel you need to stay safe and warm. Contact us today to get the process rolling!

Plumbing problems suddenly erupting in your home might leave you scratching your head and wondering what to do next. Inspecting your home’s plumbing for minor problems, easily fixed early on, will help prevent problems before they start. Don’t fret if you find a major problem–we’re always here to help.

You’ll find most of your plumbing fixtures in your bathroom and kitchen. You’ve probably already guessed that these rooms are the main places to look for plumbing issues. Keep on reading, because we’re giving you a plumbing checklist for your Pennsylvania home.

Frequent Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing Problems

Of all the rooms in your home, the bathroom and kitchen are the two that get the most use by all family members. You are most likely to see plumbing problems in these places. Check your faucets, drains, and toilets for problems.

• Tubs, showers, and bathroom sink drains are especially prone to clogs. It’s best to use boiling water or another method to clear your drain before soap and hair buildups cause full-blown blockages.
• Wear and tear on toilets, which have a lot of working parts, can cause problems. To check your toilet, remove the tank lid and watch it flush. If your toilet continues running instead of shutting off, it’s wasting a lot of water. Call W.C. Eshenaur & Son, Inc., and we’ll take a look.
• The kitchen is another room full of plumbing fixtures. Inspect all your kitchen’s fixtures at least twice a year, fixing any problems you find. Your kitchen sink gets a lot of use­–leaking commonly occurs at the sink strainer.
• Leaky kitchen faucets are one of the most common plumbing repairs that homes need. If your kitchen faucet leaks when you turn the knob all the way, you might need a plumber.

Notice any issues with your home’s plumbing fixtures? Contact us today. We’re happy to help.
