Question 4

DUCTLESS MINI-SPLITS

Accepted Answer

Ductless mini-splits are a simple and energy-efficient way to bring warm or cool air into your home without the use of duct work.

Ductless mini-split systems are a variation of the ducted “heat pump” system, which is a two-way heating and cooling system. During the summer months, ductless mini-splits will draw heat out of the air in your home and deliver it outside, bringing cooled air back inside. When the weather gets colder, the process is reversed and heat from the air outside is collected and brought inside.

Question 5

WATER HEATER REPLACEMENTS

Accepted Answer

If you need to replace your water heater, our knowledgeable & efficient technicians at Schneid-Aire can get the job done right. We know that having a malfunctioning water heater is not only inconvenient & stressful, but also dangerous. That’s why our team works quickly to troubleshoot the issues & provide replacement services to every client. Whatever your situation, we can discuss your options & restore your hot water in a timely manner.

Water heaters typically last around 8-12 years. A good rule of thumb is to replace it every 10 years, but if your water heater is exhibiting signs of failure or is malfunctioning, it is important to have it thoroughly inspected. While simply repairing it may provide a few more years of life, replacing it completely can provide many benefits. Newer water heaters are more energy efficient & can save you money on utilities. A new unit will often perform more reliably than older models.
