According to Energy Star, a division of the EPA, “Dirt and neglect are the #1 causes of heating and cooling system failure.” Most people wouldn’t dream of driving their car without performing regular oil changes and tune-ups, but they will go year after year without servicing their heating and cooling systems. Your heating and cooling system, like your car, needs a tune-up to prevent breakdowns and unnecessary repairs. Your system requires a maintenance check-up twice a year, once in the fall before you use your heating system and once in the spring before you start your air conditioner. These check-ups will insure that your system is performing at its most efficient and providing optimum home comfort. A maintenance check-up will also extend the life of your equipment, increase cost effectiveness, and insure safe operations of your equipment. According to the EPA, as much as half of the energy used in your home goes to heating and cooling. Making smart decisions on your heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system can increase the efficiency of your system and have a large affect on your utility bills. In fact, studies show that properly maintaining your heating and cooling systems can reduce energy
Mini Split Ductless Air Conditioning & Heating
As much as half of the energy used in your home goes to heating & cooling. So making smart decisions about your home or business’s heating & air conditioning system can have a big effect on your utility bills – and your comfort. If your average annual utilities are $4,200.00, a Fujitsu or Mitsubishi mini-split ductless heat pump & air conditioner unit can save you $1050.00 annually or $10,500.00 in 10 years. How does a mini split work? Like your refrigerator, heat pumps use electricity to pump refrigerant & transfer heat from one space to another. When we transfer heat from within our home to the outdoors, we call it “air conditioning”. Conversely, when we transfer heat from the outdoors to within the home, we call it “heat pump”. Because refrigerant is naturally much colder than outdoor temperatures even on a very cold day, it actually absorbs heat from outdoors, and transfers the heat it absorbed outside to within your home. The refrigerant’s physical properties do this naturally. What you pay for is the electricity to pump refrigerant via copper tubing from outdoors to indoors. Because we move the heat rather than create it, we can deliver up to 4

Forced hot air systems
A forced hot air heating system offers instant comfort and the highest efficiency ratings & qualifies for gas rebates & tax credits. One of the advantages to having A&L, the best of the heating contractors, install a forced hot air heating system vs. a hot water boiler system, is that you can install central air conditioning. And if for some reason the forced hot air system was installed without central air conditioning, you can install it at a later date. And as a heating and cooling contractor we can take care of you at all stages. Another advantage of a forced hot air system is that you can add whole house air filtration. That can really help with filtering out the allergens, dust, and other unwanted particles floating in the air of your home or business. As one of the best of the heating contractors on Cape Cod MA the first step we take when someone is looking to upgrade or replace or change their heating and/or cooling system is to do a heating & cooling load calculation on your home. We then take those calculations to figure out the exact amount of BTUs needed to heat or cool your
Windows and Doors
Not only do we install all the latest high efficiency Heating & Air Conditioning equipment, but we also install Windows and Doors. But what makes a window energy efficient? There are a number of factors that go into a window achieving high energy efficiency. High performance glazing system options, including proprietary Low E & warm technology keep your home comfortable & energy efficient. The glazing system meets energy star guidelines for energy efficiency in all US climate zones, and these latest advancements deliver optimum performance under the widest possible range of conditions. A combination of an insulating frame & sash, fusion-welded construction, continuous weather stripping and integral glazing resists air and water infiltration nearly 100% better than the minimum AAMA/WDMA standards. Multi-chambered air spaces and fusion welding in the frame & sashes with double pane insulation with low E on the inside glass surface & enhanced with argon gas & low conductance material spacer between the 2 panes. The result is increased insulation value, increased warmth, & decreased condensation. We know your eyes are probably glazed over (pun intended), but if you contact us, we’ll be glad to explain the different levels of efficiency so you can make the best
