With the growing technologies and rapid urbanization, the demand for HVAC products and their services has increased. Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems are used to maintain the temperature of a place at a certain comfort level. Using heaters in winters and ACs in summers are the perfect examples of using HVAC systems.

HVAC systems are widely used in commercial, industrial, and residential buildings. With the increasing demand in products, there comes a need for HVAC maintenance tips to prevent costly repairs.

When any component gets broken, or a function stops working, it costs a lot to get it repaired. So, to prevent such extra expenses, you should regularly get maintenance of HVAC appliances. In this blog, we will discuss a few HVAC maintenance tips to prevent costly repairs.

Prevent Costly Repair With These 3 HVAC Maintenance Tips

  1. On-time maintenance

Carrying out regular maintenance drills will let you prevent any major issues before their occurrence. There comes a time when your appliances start giving low efficiencies, non-uniformity can be seen in heating or cooling, and unusual noise can be heard. 

These are the signs that your appliances have started working inaccurately. You should instantly call an HVAC technician to get it checked. Maintenance drills should be carried out by an experienced technician who has knowledge of your appliances and knows how they work.

They will check if there is any visible damage on the unit; if so – they will fix it immediately before it becomes a bigger problem for you later on. They also check whether there are any electrical short circuits that may cause a potential fire hazard to your property. 

Another benefit of carrying out regular maintenance is it prevents high electricity bills. As appliances start working inaccurately, the chances of high electricity bills increase. So, regular maintenance helps you keep your monthly budget on track.

Also, consider having a maintenance plan. You might not recall every time when it’s time for your appliances’ maintenance. So, once you plan all your services at once, it avoids missing out on service dates.

Another benefit of having a maintenance plan is that you can opt for a yearly package of any maintenance provider. You can make sure you never lose out on the advantages of yearly plans by implementing an HVAC preventive maintenance plan. Customers with maintenance agreements frequently receive waived emergency service and overtime fees, and a service plan may also entitle you to reductions on HVAC repair charges.

  1. Adopt smart technologies

Many smart devices are available that automatically adjust the functionalities of a heater or a cooler, saving energy.

In addition to being energy efficient, these devices can make your life easier by saving time and money by automatically adjusting for humidity or room temperature changes. 

Smart thermostats have become very popular in recent years because they can save energy. You will no longer have to worry about turning off rooms that are not being used, or about cooling areas that are not necessary at this time. Smart thermostats even monitor leaks to prevent overcooling or overheating — an important consideration for HVAC systems that are used 24/7.

One of the most popular smart technologies is the one that works with your smartphone and allows you to make adjustments on your computer, such as adjusting the temperature, turning off the ventilation system when you leave home, etc.

These smart devices also help keep your home safe by providing alerts when it’s getting too hot or cold outside. So you won’t have to worry about turning up the heat when there’s a storm approaching or turning down your air conditioning system at night when everyone is asleep.

So, preventing overheating and overcooling leads to the prevention of internal damage.

  1. Start manual cleaning

If you want to save money on repairs and maintenance, then you should consider having your HVAC cleaned on a regular basis. This will help to keep the system running smoothly, and it will also ensure that it lasts longer than if it wasn’t cleaned regularly.

With so many components, HVAC appliances are easy to get gummed up with dirt and debris over time. This can cause problems with airflow, efficiency, and power consumption, which can ultimately lead to expensive repairs or replacements. Luckily, if you keep cleaning the components like the vent and air filters of the appliance, there are very few chances for them to get repaired.

Manual cleaning is a self-job with minimum cost, and it enables the appliance to run hassle-free and also saves your time, electricity bill costs, and repair costs.

Sometimes, while cleaning, you might find some macro impurities or detect a defect that affects the functioning of your appliances. So, if you find a defect, consider calling up the HVAC technician ASAP.

  1. Hiring Professionals and Experts Only

Along with timely maintenance, you need to make sure that you hire professional technicians only who know every system throughout to save your HVAC system from any damage. This is because if the technicians don’t know how to fix your system, they may cause more damage.

When it comes to hiring a qualified technician, there are many options in the market. However, it’s important to choose one who has experience in working on these systems as they are complex and need special training and skill sets.

When hiring a technician, it’s important that you ask him or her if he or she has experience in working on these systems because a lot of people use the internet for finding technicians. But this can be risky because there are many bad technicians who have no experience and will do damage to your system without knowing exactly how to do so. 

So instead of looking for someone through the internet, it would be better if you ask around your friends and relatives or search for a company where they have worked before.

Conclusion

Adapting new technologies isn’t much costly, but the repairing costs behind it are. So, make sure you follow all the tips to prevent costly repairs and let your HVAC appliances run smoothly.

  2. Scientists mapped what happens if a crucial system of ocean currents collapses. The weather impact would be extreme

    The collapse of a crucial network of Atlantic Ocean currents could push parts of the world into a deep freeze, with winter temperatures plunging to around minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit in some cities, bringing “profound climate and societal impacts,” according to a new study.

    There is increasing concern about the future of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation — known as the AMOC — a system of currents that works like a giant conveyor belt, pulling warm water from the Southern Hemisphere and tropics to the Northern Hemisphere, where it cools, sinks and flows back south.

    Multiple studies suggest the AMOC is weakening with some projecting it could even collapse this century as global warming disrupts the balance of heat and salinity that keeps it moving. This would usher in huge global weather and climate shifts — including plunging temperatures in Europe, which relies on the AMOC for its mild climate.

    What’s less clear, however, is how these impacts will unfold in a world heated up by humans burning fossil fuels.

    “What if the AMOC collapses and we have climate change? Does the cooling win or does the warming win?” asked Rene van Westen, a marine and atmospheric researcher at Utrecht University in the Netherlands and co-author of the paper published Wednesday in the Geophysical Research Letters journal.

    This new study is the first to use a modern, complex climate model to answer the question, he told CNN.
    The researchers looked at a scenario where the AMOC weakens by 80% and the Earth is around 2 degrees Celsius warmer than the period before humans began burning large amounts of fossil fuels. The planet is currently at 1.2 degrees of warming.

    They focused on what would happen as the climate stabilized post-collapse, multiple decades into the future.

    Even in this hotter world, they found “substantial cooling” over Europe with sharp drops in average winter temperatures and more intense cold extremes — a very different picture than the United States, where the study found temperatures would continue to increase even with an AMOC collapse.

    Sea ice would spread southward as far as Scandinavia, parts of the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, the research found. This would have a huge impact on cold extremes as the white surface of the ice reflects the sun’s energy back into space, amplifying cooling.

    The scientists have created an interactive map to visualize the impacts of an AMOC collapse across the globe.

Tree-covered mountains rise behind a pile of trash, children run through the orange haze of a dust storm, and a billboard standing on parched earth indicates where the seashore used to be before desertification took hold. These striking images, exhibited as part of the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Summit, show the devastating effects of climate change.

    The summit, held at the University of Oxford in the UK and supported by UN Human Rights (OHCHR), aims to reframe climate change as a human rights crisis and spotlight climate solutions. It works with everyone from policymakers to artists to get the message across.

    “Photographers document the human rights impacts of climate change, helping to inform the public and hold governments and businesses accountable,” said Volker Turk, UN High Commissioner for the OHCHR, via email. “The Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Summit shows the power of collective action — uniting storytellers, scientists, indigenous leaders, and others to advance climate solutions rooted in human rights.”

    Coinciding with World Environment Day on June 5, the exhibition — titled “Photography 4 Humanity: A Lens on Climate Justice” — features the work of 31 photographers from across the globe, all documenting the effects of global warming and environmental pollution on their own communities.

    Climate change disproportionately affects vulnerable populations around the world. Despite emitting far fewer greenhouse gases, low-income nations are suffering the most from extreme weather events and have fewer resources to adapt or recover.
    Photographs at the exhibition show the effects of desertification, flooding and plastic pollution. A black and white image shows the ruins of a house in West Bengal, India, sloping towards the Ganges River, with the owner sitting alongside. Riverbank erosion is degrading the environment and displacing communities in the area. Photographer Masood Sarwer said in a press release that the photo depicts the “slow violence” of climate change: “These are not sudden disasters, but slow-moving, relentless ones — shaping a new category of environmental refugees.”

    Another photo, taken by Aung Chan Thar, shows children fishing for trash in Inle Lake, Myanmar. The lake was once a pristine natural wonder but now faces the growing threat of plastic pollution. “This image of children cleaning the water symbolizes the importance of education and collective action in preserving our environment for a sustainable future,” he said.

    Organizers hope that the exhibition will help to humanize the climate crisis. “Our mission is to inspire new perspectives through photography,” said Pauline Benthede, global vice president of artistic direction and exhibitions at Fotografiska, the museum of photography, art and culture that is curating the exhibition at the summit. “It draws attention to the human rights issue at the heart of global warming, which affects both the world’s landscapes and the people that live within them.”

    “Photography is the most influential and inclusive art form of our times and has the power to foster understanding and inspire action,” she added.

  25. NASA scientists are in a state of anxious limbo after the Trump administration proposed a budget that would eliminate one of the United States’ top climate labs – the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, or GISS – as a standalone entity.

    In its place, it would move some of the lab’s functions into a broader environmental modeling effort across the agency.

    Career specialists are now working remotely, awaiting details and even more unsure about their future at the lab after they were kicked out of their longtime home in New York City last week. Closing the lab for good could jeopardize its value and the country’s leadership role in global climate science, sources say.

    “It’s an absolute sh*tshow,” one GISS scientist said under condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. “Morale at GISS has never been lower, and it feels for all of us that we are being abandoned by NASA leadership.”

    “We are supposedly going to be integrated into this new virtual NASA modeling institute, but (we have) no idea what that will actually look like,” they said.

    NASA is defending its budget proposal, with a nod toward the lab’s future.
    “NASA’s GISS has a significant place in the history of space science and its work is critical for the Earth Science Division, particularly as the division looks to the future of its modeling work and capabilities,” NASA spokesperson Cheryl Warner said in a statement.

    “Fundamental contributions in research and applications from GISS directly impact daily life by showing the Earth system connections that impact the air we breathe, our health, the food we grow, and the cities we live in,” Warner said.

    GISS has a storied history in climate science on the global scale.

    James Hansen, a former director, first called national attention to human-caused global warming at a Senate hearing during the hot summer of 1988. The lab, founded in 1961, is still known worldwide for its computer modeling of the planet that enable scientists to make projections for how climate change may affect global temperatures, precipitation, extreme weather events and other variables.
