We often recommend attic fans to our customers because of the many benefits they offer. An attic fan is an effective and energy-efficient way to push out the often super-heated air from an attic and cool it down. A cooler attic helps to keep a cooler house. During the winter, attic fans help to push out moisture that rises into the attic, and this does marvels to protect the roof from damage like wood rot.

If you have an attic fan, you may at times need to arrange for attic fan repair in Madison County. Since the attic fan is located where you rarely see it and won’t be able to hear it, you’ll need to know other signs that will tell you there’s a malfunction with the unit. We’ll go over several of these warning signs below.

How Electricians Do Whole-House Rewiring

August 12th, 2024

The way we use electricity in our homes has changed dramatically over the last several decades. These changes have made some wiring in homes obsolete. There are also types of wiring that were obsolete the moment they were put in, such as the aluminum wiring used extensively in the 1970s as a substitute for copper. 

You may live in a home with extensively outdated wiring, and if that’s the case, the best course of action is to call our licensed electricians and arrange for whole-house rewiring. We will give your house a complete upgrade (probably with a new electrical panel as well) to bring it into the twenty-first century. This means a safer home with a reliable electrical system.

If you’re curious about what happens during whole-house rewiring, follow us below and we’ll give you a guide to our whole-house rewiring services in Franklin County.

My AC’s Compressor Died—Does That Mean I Have to Replace the AC?

July 15th, 2024

The heart of a central AC is its compressor. This powerful motorized component places refrigerant under pressure so that it will circulate through the rest of the air conditioning system and change between a hot gas and a cold liquid to move heat out of the house.

Because the compressor is so powerful, it uses the most energy of any part of the AC. It’s also an expensive component to replace if it should burn out and fail. Conventional wisdom says that a dead compressor means the whole AC has to go to the recycling yard so a new AC can replace it. 

But conventional wisdom isn’t always 100% accurate. So let’s look further into the possibilities when you’ve got a dead compressor. Do you need a full central AC replacement in Stephens County in this case? Or is there another option?

We recommend our customers schedule professional AC maintenance every year. This is a light recommendation—it’s a major one! If you want an AC that is…

  • Reliable

  • Energy efficient
