I never seem to get any heat in a room on the third floor, why?

There are vent dampers located on the ductwork in your basement. Adjusting these may improve airflow to areas of your home that are not currently adequate.

My air conditioning only cools my main floor, not upstairs, why?

This is a very common problem. Many contractors will tell you that increasing the motor size and pulley in your furnace will help. Not necessarily. Motor and pulley size increase will not affect the air flow if your blower is to small, or plugged. Newer furnaces have much stronger motors and blowers, which are designed to move cold air more effectively.

My air conditioner does not seem to be cooling. Maybe it needs Freon?

An air conditioner should not lose Freon if it was properly installed. A dirty or plugged furnace filter can cause your air conditioner to freeze up, or not provide any cooling whatsoever. If your furnace filter is ok, then the system has to be tested for leaks. Running your air conditioner when it's low on Freon can damage your compressor.

Why do I need a humidifier?

Having a humidifier reduces the static in your home. It provides moisture to the extremely dry air being distributed in your home. Old drum style humidifiers collect calcium and hard water deposits in a tray, while a drum and pad revolve slightly dipping in to the tray. An alternative to this outdated style of unit is a flow through model. A flow through humidifier does not contain moving parts, and the water drains upon trickling through a honeycomb filter. The benefits of this type of system compared to the old style drum type humidifier, are immense.
