If you are in the midst of looking for a new heating system or a replacement heating system, you may have come across a heat pump. These systems have many benefits, of which we’ll explain more about below, but there is some concern about whether or not a heat pump system can provide adequate heating to a home in Fairfield, OH. It takes some explaining to understand this concern, so let us shed some light on it for you.
Is a Heat Pump Effective Enough to Heat My Home?
November 2nd, 2015Indoor Allergies Require a Good Air Filter
October 26th, 2015One of the benefits of the cooler fall air is that we experience the first frost. While many people may not be happy about this, allergy sufferers tend to rejoice. Why? The first frost kills off the flora and fauna that make fall allergies so challenging, reducing allergy symptoms. However, just because the cool air is here, and cold air is to follow, doesn’t mean you are out of the woods if one of your allergens is dust or pet hair. These kinds of allergies will affect you all the time, and if you have a forced air heating system, you’ll be trapped with these contaminants all winter long – unless you have a good air filter to capture them.

Is Your Generator Ready for Winter Weather?
September 21st, 2015While many homes still have their air conditioning running, we have to face an inevitable truth: fall is almost here. It can be easy to go from September to December in the blink of an eye, which is why we want to ask: is your generator ready for the winter season? We certainly hope you won’t need your generator this winter, but it would be a far worse scenario to need it and not have it work. The generator experts at Bartels Heating & Cooling can help ensure that this won’t be the case when you schedule us for generator maintenance.

Reasons to Upgrade Your Thermostat
September 7th, 2015At this time of year, your whole home air conditioning system has been operating for quite a while. You may have taken some steps to help reduce your energy usage, but there is one fairly simple step many homeowners overlook: upgrading your thermostat. Its small size belies its power in your home, because your air conditioning system can’t operate without a working thermostat. Your thermostat is the control center for your AC, telling it when to turn on and off. But today’s thermostats have far more capabilities than this, and these capabilities can offer you some important benefits.
Should I Consider a Package Unit for My Commercial Space?
August 31st, 2015Your commercial space can’t operate without having the right cooling or heating it needs during the year. If you have determined that your existing commercial HVAC system needs to be replaced in the imminent future, you have a number of options from which to choose. One of these options is a package unit. Any commercial HVAC replacement is a big decision and should always be undertaken with the help of a trained commercial cooling and heating expert, like the ones at Bartels Heating & Cooling. We can help with all of your commercial HVAC needs in Fairfield, OH, so give us a call today!
