Spring Checklist for Improving Your Quality of Life Indoors

Spring is finally here, and the tumultuous weather brings with it seasonal allergies and rainy days spent indoors. While the elements get themselves sorted, it’s important to get your house in similar order. Here are some ideas to improve your family’s quality of life at home and make the most out of the season.

Break Down Your HVAC Investment Timeline

Whether you’re planning a major renovation or just looking to tune up your home systems and appliances, it’s important to choose a project that’s timely and fits into your budget. When making this decision, note that certain products and parts might not be available due to supply chain issues caused by the pandemic. Before beginning any project, it’s best to make sure that you’ll be guaranteed timely completion, or will have the flexibility for things to be temporarily unfinished while you wait. 

The expense of major renovations can often deter homeowners from being proactive about fixes and upgrades. However, with the summer being prime-time for contract work, it’s important to get projects scheduled now. In order to get your hands on need-based funds for the work you’re having done, consider a home equity line of credit. This credit borrowed against your home can also qualify for tax deductions when used on home improvements.

If one of your projects includes making sure your HVAC system is in working order for the warm months ahead, our qualified technicians at Basnett Plumbing, Heating & AC are always prepared to get your equipment cleaned, prepped, and working at maximum efficiency. 

To help you remain proactive with inspections and repairs to your plumbing and HVAC systems, Basnett Plumbing, Heating & AC offers three Ultimate Service Agreement (USA) memberships for convenient maintenance. With flexible payment options and quality service, there is always a USA plan to fit your home’s needs and give you peace of mind.

Address Immediate Needs

The beginning of allergy season can look different for everyone. From sniffles and sneezes, to larger respiratory issues, it’s important that you address your family’s immediate needs this spring. Consider installing an air filtration system to help protect against these ailments and keep your home’s air clean.

With the rainy spring weather comes the possibility of your basement facing runoff or even minor puddling. Here at Basnett Plumbing, Heating & AC, we offer whole-house dehumidifier installation to help combat water damage and mold that might otherwise develop in your home. Either one, or both, of these systems are great for managing the changing weather and should receive a pre-summer tune-up along with your air conditioning system.

Ensure Highest Efficiency

The best quality HVAC systems do their job unseen and unheard, but that also means duct leaks can easily go undetected by homeowners. To ensure that the air in your space remains comfortable and clean – and that your systems are in proper working order – it’s important to get your ducts inspected, cleaned, and sealed.

A buildup of minor leaks can rack up a decent bill when left unattended. What’s more, do-it-yourself patching is often insufficient and temporary. Our specialists at Basnett Plumbing, Heating & AC offer comprehensive Aeroseal duct sealing services that have been shown to lower energy use by up to 40 percent, saving your family from the hassle and health risks of an inefficient HVAC system.
