Air Ducts

Do you notice some of the rooms in your home are either warmer or cooler than others? Do you have a room that never quite reaches the comfortable temperature you want? Is your second floor always a little bit uncomfortable? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you are not alone. These are common issues for homeowners, and in many cases, the problem is caused by air duct, or ductwork, issues.

Our professionals at Synergy Technical Services can help you identify ductwork leaks, poor insulation in your ductwork, or other ductwork problems you may be experiencing. Although ducts are a hidden network behind your home’s walls and floors, they can cost you hundreds of dollars in wasted energy every year if they are not operating at their peak performance.

When you call our team, we will come out and inspect your air duct system. Our trained professionals can seal air duct leaks, ensuring your heated or cooled air makes it to all the rooms in your home. In addition, we will identify duct areas that can benefit from additional insulation such as ductwork running through an uninsulated attic. We may recommend different solutions to help you balance your heating and cooling throughout your home.

If you are ready to increase your comfort level and save some money on your energy bills, call Synergy Technical Services at 804.608.1050. Our professionals are ready and waiting to serve you and your family. Request air duct service online today.

Air Handlers

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) units are commonplace in homes located in . However, the components you select as part of your HVAC system can vary depending on the size of your home, your family’s personal preferences, and your budgetary situation. One HVAC component that is not commonly discussed is an air handler.

Our professionals at Synergy Technical Services can provide you with more details about air handlers and how they can help you improve the indoor air climate of your home. In short, air handlers typically work with heat pumps and sometimes air conditioners to efficiently move air throughout your home using a built-in blower system.

Not every home requires an air handler. In fact, if you use a conventional furnace, a blower is usually built into that system, and most traditional air conditioners also do not require an air handler. If you happen to own a heat pump, however, your home will probably have an air handler as well.

Some air handlers come with a variable speed motor, which allows them to supplement the heating and cooling needs of your home more efficiently. This means a better distribution of air and a more consistent and comfortable temperature throughout. Many models reduce condensation and are easy to clean, improving your indoor air quality as well.

If you need more information about air handlers, call Synergy Technical Services at 804.608.1050. Our experienced team is more than happy to share what we offer and to answer your questions. Request handlers service today..

Ductless Systems

Have you ever heard of a ductless heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system? Ductless systems provide heating and cooling without forcing air through a network of air ducts in your home.

Our professionals at Synergy Technical Services suggest considering a ductless system if you are adding a room or providing customized climate control to a particular space in your home. For example, a ductless system would work great in a sunroom, man cave, bonus room, or home office. They are also a possible solution for keeping one bedroom extra warm for an elderly family member or as supplemental heating or cooling for a rarely used guest room.

One advantage of a ductless system is it requires a very small hole to be drilled through a wall, which makes installation a breeze and energy loss close to nonexistent. In addition, ductless systems are typically quieter and can reduce your energy bills over time if you are losing energy through a duct system.

Though they can be more expensive initially to purchase, in short time you save enough in energy costs to make the difference back. These are perfect if your home needs a system with a small footprint. We can install them most anywhere in your home.

If you are ready to learn more about ductless systems, call Synergy Technical Services at 804.608.1050. Our professionals would be happy to share the systems and services we offer. Request ductless system service online today.

Duct Cleaning

One area you may not think about a great deal in your home is your air ducts. This network of ducts behind the walls of your home are responsible for carrying heated and cooled air to every room of your house. The professionals at Synergy Technical Services want to help you keep these air ducts clean.

Our trained technicians use special tools to loosen dirt in your air ducts and them remove all the debris. In addition, registers, grills, defusers, heat exchangers, and cooling coils are also cleaned with most duct cleaning services.

Many particulates from daily living end up in your home’s indoor air and can be circulated through your home or settle in your air duct system. Dead skin cells, dust mites, viruses, bacteria, mold spores, smoke, insects, rodent droppings, pet dander, and chemical particulates are commonly found in most homes.

Duct cleaning services, as part of a complete heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) maintenance routine, can help remove these items from your air ducts. In addition, changing your air filters regularly can also help in improving your indoor air quality. If dirt builds up throughout your HVAC system, including your air ducts, it may make your system work harder, which can increase your costs and decrease the life span of your equipment.

If you’re ready to tackle the dirt in your air ducts, call Synergy Technical Services at 804.608.1050. Our professionals want to help you keep your home and air ducts clean. Request duct cleaning service online s today.

Furnaces

Are you ready for the colder weather here in ? Once the days grow short and the nights stretch long, you will want to crank up the heat in your home to make it nice and cozy. A wide range of furnaces from Synergy Technical Services can help you accomplish that goal. Whether you are purchasing a new furnace or replacing an old one, there are many factors you should consider before making your decision.

One of the first things you want to consider is what size furnace your home requires. If you select a furnace that is too small, you will have inadequate heat in the coldest days of winter. On the other hand, if you select a furnace that is too large, you will be paying for more heat than you actually need.

Unfortunately, selecting the right size of furnace is a little trickier than simply looking at square footage of your home. Our heating experts will take into account the climate, size, construction, and layout of your home in order to recommend the best furnace size.

In addition, be sure to consider the cost of various energy sources and the energy ratings of furnaces. Certain fuels will be less or more expensive at any given time and will impact the environment differently as well. One thing you can be certain of is that a new furnace will be more efficient than an old one.

When you are ready to purchase a new furnace, call Synergy Technical Services at 804.608.1050. Our professionals can provide you with all the information you need. Request furnace service online today.

Gas Fireplaces

Residential fireplaces are a great option for you if you love the look, feel, and ambience of flickering flames, yet you value freedom from the mess that a traditional wood fireplace gives you with on a semi-regular basis.

Just like a traditional fireplace, gas fireplaces are a great way to add heat to your living spaces in . They can be installed in your home with very few requirements. All you need is a small amount of wiring, a gas line, and a small metal chimney.

Three main categories of gas fireplaces exist on the residential market. These are log sets, inserts, and built-ins. The use of any one of these three methods is highly dependent on your home setup. Do you have an existing fireplace? Gas or wood? Electric? That will influence your options as will how you want your space to look.

Of special note to consider when you are looking at your gas fireplace options is what your venting options will be. Be sure to keep this in mind as you move forward. Speak with one of our experts about what will work best in your home and particular setup.

When you are ready, call our Synergy Technical Services professionals today at 804.608.1050. We are ready and willing to help. Request residential gas fireplace service online .

Heat Pumps

If you are looking for a heating and cooling solution in , you may want to consider a heat pump. Heat pumps simply move warmer air from outside to inside in the winter and from inside to outside in the summer, providing a comfortable indoor temperature.

Since heat pumps do not actually create their own heat, they are more efficient and cost effective than conventional furnaces and air conditioning systems. In fact, heat pumps may provide the same heating and cooling options at one-quarter the cost.

Our professionals at Synergy Technical Services can help you determine whether a heat pump might be right for you. In the past, heat pumps tended to work best in moderate climates; however, new technology has made heat pumps viable in colder climates today as well.

The air-source heat pump is most commonly available, and it moves the heat between your home and outside. Air-source heat pumps require less electricitywhen compared with baseboard units and furnaces. Some high-efficiency models can also provide better dehumidification capabilities than conventional air conditioners.

Ductless heat pumps, or mini splits, are an alternative type of heat pump for homes without ductwork. Our professionals can talk with you about these if you are interested.

Ready to learn more about heat pumps here in ? Call Synergy Technical Services at 804.608.1050. Our highly trained experts will be happy to answer your questions. Request heat pump service online today.

Home Automation

Home automation is all the rage in . From motion detector lighting to advanced home security systems to heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems that are trained to the residents themselves, the possibilities of smart technology seem endless.

Our professionals at Synergy Technical Services would be happy to talk with you about the home automation services we can provide to help you take advantage of some of the developing technologies.

One excellent use of home automation technology involves reducing your energy consumption by tailoring your usage more exactly to your needs. Most homes have thermostats that can be programmed to turn heating or cooling systems on or off based on time and day of the week.

Today’s home automation solutions build on that same idea by extending thermostat controls to smart phone applications as well as advanced technology—detecting not only when you are home but which room you are currently using.

Further integration with your HVAC system may also be possible as both home automation and HVAC technology continue to advance. However, choosing the right systems that work together can be somewhat complicated. Talk with our professional HVAC team about your particular home automation needs, and let us help you design an affordable system that can be expanded in the future.

Indoor Air Quality

Everyone needs a breath of fresh air from time to time. In today’s world of super efficient, well-insulated buildings, there may be even a greater need. Although many advantages of modern construction exist, potentially poor indoor air quality can be one disadvantage. Our team at Synergy Technical Services is dedicated to ensuring our customers have cleaner indoor air by providing testing and remediation services in .

Where do indoor air quality problems originate? The issue can vary from home to home, but smoking, pets, dust mites, and chemicals released from cleaning products or new construction can all contribute to poor indoor air quality.

Although many of us live with these and other irritants around us each day, long-term exposure may result in physical discomfort or significant health problems. Some homeowners may experience symptoms including fatigue, allergies and asthma, flu-like systems, or respiratory issues. Certain air pollutants such as carbon monoxide from faulty heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can cause serious consequences or even death.

Our trained professionals can provide a thorough testing of your indoor air quality as well as suggest the best remediation actions for your home. Simple things like air filters, cleaning air ducts, or installing air purification systems may help improve your air quality a great deal.

Water Heaters

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are no longer the traditional units and styles you may be accustomed to in older homes or you grew up with. They deal with almost every major system in your home. One of these fringe systems in your home is a residential HVAC water heater.

In a nutshell, HVAC water heaters heat your water. There are two ways that this can be done. The first system involves a tank and the second system option is tankless. However, the basics are the same.

Tank water heaters are the traditional options and simply heat and store water according to your tank size. They can be heated by gas, oil, or electric power. Tankless water heaters, on the other hand, only heat water when you want it. These systems may additionally work with solar, geothermal, or other alternative heating sources in addition to the power sources of traditional tank systems in .

If you want to learn more about your options or are interested in moving forward in improving your home, the professionals at Synergy Technical Services are always ready to help. We are here for your water heater replacements, installations, repairs, and maintenance—give us a call at 804.608.1050. Request water heater service online today.

Zone Control Systems

Most homes having a conventional heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system have one thermostat controlling the temperature for the entire home. Over the years, many attempts have been made to control the temperature in particular rooms to reduce energy consumption and costs. For example, some people may close vents in unused rooms or program a thermostat to different temperatures throughout a 24-hour period.

Today, zone control systems are available to provide you with even more control over the temperatures in certain areas of your home. For example, if you want to only heat your upstairs bedrooms in your home on cold winter nights, you can increase the temperature in that zone while decreasing it in the downstairs zone.

Our Synergy Technical Services professionals can help you install a zone control system, which includes motorized dampers that can open and close based on programmed instructions. Each zone of your home has its own thermostat, allowing you to customize temperatures within the zones. The thermostats and dampers are then connected to the central HVAC system.

When one thermostat calls the central system for heat, for example, the automated dampers will open and close appropriately before the furnace fires up. If other zones call for heat during this period, those dampers will open as well. As soon as all thermostats have reached the desired temperatures, the HVAC system will shut off. This makes for high efficiency and lower energy costs.
