Regular maintenance is even more crucial for newer heat pumps, whose efficiency decreases greatly if not properly maintained.

The industry is growing, and demand for qualified people both in the field and in the office is breeding an emergence of diverse HVACR positions.

Most heat pumps in colder climates still require some sort of backup heat — often an oil- or gas-fired furnace — but they are an excellent option that can provide customers with a more energy-efficient year-round solution.

With many manufacturers adding certain amounts of sizzle to their offerings, modern HVACR units are evolving into much more than just comfort machines. 

This year is shaping up to be a time of technological leaps and bounds, and the industry needs to keep up.

With projected total annual energy gain (with solar) of $123, the home falls safely into the zero net-energy usage category.

Technology, in many ways, has helped save the average person time, money, and hassle. And, when it comes to zoning an HVACR system, technology has helped make zoning a more accessible option for consumers and contractors.  

It’s been a little more than a year since the release of the Air Conditioning Contractors of America’s (ACCA) Manual Zr, and so far, the manual, which focuses on residential zoning, is slowly gaining acceptance among contractors.
