With ceiling fans, you can enhance your home’s decor, conserve energy and help your family stay cool. They work well in bedrooms, living rooms and patios. Discover the benefits of installing ceiling fans in your White Oak, Texas, home.

Savings

A breeze feels great on a hot, humid day because the moving air helps your skin get rid of heat. Even if you don’t always remember to turn it off, a ceiling fan can make you feel cooler without using as much power as your HVAC system. That way, you can:

• Use your air conditioner less
• Extend its life by reducing wear and tear
• Lower your utility bills

Ceiling fans are inexpensive and easy to add to any room. Therefore, you’ll get your installation investment back quickly through energy savings.

Comfort and Convenience

You can turn a ceiling fan on or off anytime without changing the way people feel in the rest of your home. With most units, you can use them all year by reversing their fan blades from counterclockwise to clockwise. This keeps air circulation high and moves warm air away from the ceiling without creating a breeze. Many models come with remote controls, wireless internet access, light fixtures and more.

Easy Maintenance

Fans don’t require much extra care. Just clean the blades, change their light bulbs and check for loose screws once per year. The additional airflow from a ceiling fan also prevents dust and dirt from collecting on your floors and furniture. As a result, you won’t need to dust or vacuum as often.

Even if you clean your house frequently, keeping it smelling pleasant can be difficult. Unpleasant aromas can make you and your family uncomfortable. They can also make your Liberty City, Texas, home less welcoming to visitors. Fortunately, you can get rid of bad smells by adding ventilation, using a dehumidifier and taking care of your HVAC system.

Add Ventilation

Modern homes use lots of insulation to save energy. But it can keep bad smells from escaping, too.

Add a ventilation system for your entire home or exhaust fans in your kitchen and bathrooms. You can quickly remove smoke from cooking, the smell of cleaning products, too much air freshener, dirt, dust, microorganisms, and more. An energy recovery ventilator (ERV) operates like a heat pump to save energy at the same time. In spring and summer, this device removes heat from fresh air and filters it before it enters your home.

Use a Dehumidifier

High humidity in spring and summer often leads to biological growth and musty or rotting scents. It can also attract pests such as cockroaches or mice. These creatures could leave droppings or even die in your ductwork. A dehumidifier will get rid of moisture in your home’s air and prevent these issues. You can use a portable unit in one or two rooms or have a whole-home version installed by a professional.

Maintain Your HVAC System

Change your air conditioner’s air filter once per month to keep unpleasant smells from spreading. Also, have your system checked by a professional at least once per year. Odors can come from dirty ductwork, refrigerant leaks and many other problems. An expert will fix these problems before they become more severe. As a result, they’ll remove the sources of many disgusting aromas.
