A simple question that has dogged the
American homebuyer for decades, the answer eluding
consumer & contractor alike.
First, allow yourself to picture in
your mind the perfect home in which to raise your
family. Basically it comes down to a container, of
whatever size & shape you can imagine, that should
not only protect your family from the harshness of
summers heat & winters cold… but allow you the
ultimate in enjoyable comfort season after season.
"Well, obviously", you say.
But how many people do you know, or how many times have
you yourself been dissatisfied with the level of comfort
attainable in a particular home. I’m not just talking
about warm in winter, or cool in summer. It’s more
than that. Is that heating or cooling being delivered
properly to the areas when & where you desire it?
Are you & your family comfortable in every corner of
your home? Is there a crisp cleanness to the air being
circulated in your home? Is the humidity content at an
optimum level or is your home crackling dry during the
winter months? These are the issues that elevate a home
from livable to enjoyable.
Now back to that original question…
What does it take? It comes down to these five [5] basic
elements… heating, cooling, humidity control,
filtration/air-cleaning & delivery. Simple answers
to a simple question. But remember, simplicity is the
culmination of complexity. What does it take to bring
these five points to bear upon this single question?
That is not so simple, but it is achievable. And be
aware… do not take the placement of your delivery
system, i.e. the ductwork, in the queue above as an
indication of secondary importance… or worse, not even
worthy of consideration and scrutiny. It is probably the
single largest reason people are dissatisfied with their
heating and cooling systems performance. It is also the
hardest to rectify after the fact. Duct sizing,
placement of supply & return registers and attention
to detail at the point of installation are all critical
factors that can make or break a forced-air system,
regardless of the level of equipment employed.
We at C & C Service have
developed & pioneered some of the most unique &
innovative approaches to the year-round comfort issue,
with tremendous success in maintaining a delightful
indoor environment in newly constructed homes where we
are given the latitude to design & install the
heating & cooling system to our specification and
within a customers budget requirements.
But we didn’t stop there. We looked
at older homes with inadequately designed &
installed systems that just do not allow for comfort to
be realized under even the least severe conditions and
came up with an approach that solves a lot of the
problems that the owners had long ago given up on
pursuing, resigning themselves to the position that
"this is just the way a hot-air system works… I
don’t like it, but what can I do?". Our answer to
that, of course, is PLENTY.
So give us a call. We’d be happy to
discuss with you all of the comfort related issues that
happen to apply to your particular project, whether you
are planning & designing a custom home… be you
architect, builder or involved owner, or perhaps you
would like to explore what options are available to you
in order to correct or enhance your existing situation.
Pick up the phone… you’ll be happy you did.
