Concern about cloudy and overcast days—not to mention nighttime—cutting into the power of solar panels is one of the biggest reasons why potential customers for solar energy systems sometimes back away from the purchase. Solar panels aren’t necessarily new technology, but their residential use is new to many, and so people are often unfamiliar with how these panels work. These misunderstandings often mean that homes that would benefit tremendously from them don’t end up getting them.

We’re big proponents of using geothermal heat pumps to supply homes with their year-round comfort. Heat pumps, in general, are excellent comfort systems, and when a house has a heat pump that uses the stable energy of the earth as its source of heat transfer, it makes for an energy-efficient and reliable system. No matter the temperature outdoors, the heat pump always has the energy it needs. Geothermal heat pumps also benefit the environment and can last for decades without needing replacements for the underground loops.
A geothermal heat pump will need repairs at some point, however, no matter how well it’s cared for. If you’re the happy owner of a heat pump, it’s good planning to know the signs that it’s time for repairs. That way you’ll stay a happy owner. Here are some tips about spotting a need for repairs from our experts in geothermal heating and cooling in Warsaw, IN.
Here’s a question we often hear from homeowners who want to be sure they’re air conditioning systems work at their best: “When will I need to have the refrigerant in the AC topped off?”
The answer is: “Hopefully, never.” If an air conditioning system doesn’t suffer from problems with refrigerant leaks, it won’t ever need to have any additional refrigerant put into it. Adding refrigerant isn’t a maintenance task, but a repair issue. We’ll go into more details below.
