Petrie Heating and Cooling takes the "Whole House Approach" to our service. Rather than just showing up when something breaks down, we specialize in preventative maintenance with our "8man Maintenance Plan". This maintenance plan keeps your HVAC systems running efficiently, corrects problems that lead to major repairs if left unchecked, and keeps you in comfort all year long.
Our Whole House Infiltration Test checks your entire home including your duct system for leaks which suck in "bad air".
The United States Department of Energy in a 1996 study found that
- "Typical duct systems lose 25 to 40 percent of the heating or cooling energy put out by the central furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner. Duct repairs could be the most important energy improvement measure you can do."
- "Leakage in the duct system can be hazardous to your health. Especially problematic are leaky returns in an enclosed space or garage that also contains the furnace."
- "You should not attempt to repair duct leaks. Safe duct leak repair requires a licensed heating, ventilation, and air conditioning contractor... one that has sent their technicians to a good duct repair school."
