Benefits of Home Comfort Systems
Aside from just heating and cooling your home, modern home comfort systems offer the following benefits:
- Improved Indoor Air Quality – According to the EPA, indoor air quality is a surprising two to five times worse than outdoor air, since the airflow inside is contained. Because of this, cold germs can stay around longer and allergy symptoms can worsen. Modern home comfort systems can improve indoor air quality by cycling stagnant indoor air with fresh air from outside, especially when combined with air filters that trap air pollutants.
- Energy Conservation – Modern heating and cooling systems are significantly more energy efficient than older models. This means that in the long run, a new HVAC system will save you money on utility bills every month. Some systems can even be powered by renewable energy, such as solar panels saving you even more.
- Moisture Consistency – No matter where you live climate-wise, your home is vulnerable to humidity problems. This is especially true in St. Louis with hot, humid summers and cold, dry winters. Many new home comfort systems account for this and can adjust humidity levels year round, increasing humidity in the winter and decreasing humidity in the summer, to ensure maximum comfort.
- Maximum Comfort Control – Several technological advances over time, such as variable-speed technology, have helped home comfort systems maintain temperatures more consistently with even air flow and better humidity control.
- HVAC Zoning – Today, many high efficiency home comfort systems come with programmable thermostats allowing you to set up HVAC zoning to precisely control the temperature of each room of the home.
- Programmable and Smart Thermostats – Most new home comfort systems come with a programmable thermostat so that you can pre-program the cycles to optimize energy savings. Additionally, with a smart thermostat, which works by downloading an app on your smartphone, you can control the temperature in your home remotely. Your home comfort system can even send alerts via the app if the temperature fluctuates outside of a specific range.
- Quiet Operation – Newer comfort systems for the home are made with modern sound-absorbing materials that make the operating noise nearly non-existent compared to older versions, thus reducing the amount of sound you hear while enjoying comfortable temperatures inside your home.
