At Barnes Heating & Air we specialize in equipment replacement and upgrades. Not sure if you should repair or replace? Consider the frequency of system break downs. That means more expensive emergency service calls or possible outage during peak season. Also consider the ongoing cost factor with energy prices continuing to increase. You could save up to 40% on your energy usage with a new high efficiency system. While we are replacing your equipment we respect your home and time. We cover the work area with tarps to protect your floor and leave your home neat and clean. In most replacements we complete the work in one day. The refrigerant used in most home comfort systems, Freon R-22, damages the earth’s ozone layer and soon will be phased out by federal law. When R-22 is phased out, the cost of servicing products using it will rise dramatically. Barnes Heating & Air can help you avoid the rising costs associated with R-22. We’ll analyze your home comfort needs and recommend a system with chlorine free refrigerant. And by making the switch now, you will save money on future costs of servicing and energy usage. Your indoor air quality is very important to us at Barnes. In the summer, mold, mildew and corrosion can build up in your system’s drain pan and affect the air you breathe. In the winter, carbon monoxide and other harmful flue gases escaping into your living area are a concern. If your family suffers from frequent illnesses, you may want to have us check your present heating and cooling system. We can provide proper maintenance or recommend a new system that makes sense for you. Barnes Heating & Air has a 100% NATE (North American Technician Excellence) service department.

Q: I have a 1 story 1400 square foot home. What size a/c-heating unit should I get? Thanks, Stacy

A: Stacy, The square footage alone can not determine the correct size of a heating & cooling system. A Heat Gain/ Heat Loss Calculation combined with a Comfort Specialist Questionnarie would have to be preformed to correctly size YOUR heating & cooling system. The Caculation/Questionnaire even accounts for how many people live in the home, the appliances used, the orientation of your home to the sun and even how you plan to use the space. We here at Barnes Heating & Air can help you with the proper sizing and much more simply call 832-9457.
