Preventative Maintenance -- Furnace, AC, and HP Tune-up
I personally tune-up my furnace and humidifier every fall and my heat pump (air conditioner) every spring. Here is what energy star recommends: "Tune up your HVAC equipment yearly. Just as a tune-up for your car can improve your gas mileage, a yearly tune-up of your heating and cooling system can improve efficiency and comfort. Learn more:"

Comfort consultation --
We'll provide a blower door test with zonal pressure measurements, a much more precise load calculation, and forward looking infrared imaging --FLIR of problem areas in your home. The blower door test determines how tight, or leaky your home is. This number, in conjunction with your utility bills (gas and electric) will allow us to provide the proper size equipment for both heating and cooling. Without these numbers the load calculation and equipment sizing can be off by as much as plus or minus 50%. With these numbers we're plus or minus 10%. The blower door number will also help you determine if it's worth investing in air sealing of your home or whether it's perfectly adequate. The zonal pressure readings determine which rooms need attention and the FLIR imaging helps identify potential problems.
