Trane CleanEffects™ Air Cleaner – Asthma Relief Via An Arizona Installed Trane Filtration System

Written by Rm Harrington on . Posted in AC Installation, AC Service, Air Cleaners, Arizona Air Conditioning Installation, Cooling Tips.

Trane CleanEffects™ Air CleanerFight Allergies and Asthma: The Whole-House Advantage of a Phoenix Installed Trane CleanEffects™ Air Cleaner

According to Allergy Arizona, over 15 million U.S. adults suffer from asthma. Environmental lung irritants are the predominate asthma triggering agents. Common household irritants include animal dander, cleaning products, dust, mildew, perfume, seasonal pollen and smoke. For people who suffer from airborne-triggered allergies and/or asthma, a Phoenix installed Trane CleanEffects™ Air Cleaner may divide the line between poor quality living and a comfortable whole-house home environment.

 

Reduce the Risks: Install a Trane Whole-House Air Filtration System

Scientific studies performed by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases indicate that allergies are linked to your genes and to your environmental circumstances. Most times, an allergic reaction is not a result of real threats to your body but rather a reaction to false immunity alarms triggered by low-level environmental substances. A whole-home Trane CleanEffects™ Air Cleaner system can help reduce the threat level, eliminate premature attacks and even help prevent primary attacks.

Although often triggered by your environment, the symptoms of allergy are not typically location-specific. Whether you reside in Charlotte, NC or Phoenix, AZ, the symptoms are the same and include the following characteristics:

  • Asthma attacks
  • A runny nose
  • Itching
  • Rashes
  • Sneezing
  • And the possibility of a life-threatening condition called anaphylaxis.

Keeping your living environment free of dust and other airborne contaminants is a first step toward eliminating avoidable allergy attacks. You should also try to remain inside on windy days, avoiding rolling down windows while traveling in vehicles, reduce your exposure to household chemicals and run a dehumidifier on humid days. Other preventative measures include:

  • Reduce your stress factors
  • Establish a daily exercise routine
  • AND regulate your personal habits so as to eliminate allergen triggers.

 

Installed Clean Air Filtration Systems Critical To Arizona Residents

In 2008, the Centers for Disease Control and Preventions (CDC) reported that nearly 34 million people worldwide have been diagnosed with asthma. The same paper reveals that 12.3 million of those suffers experienced an asthma attack in the previous year. In 2007, the U.S. asthma-related death rate accounted for more than nine people per day. The average U.S. cost in asthma-related medical expenses topped over $30 billion dollars per year. The CDC’s 2008 estimate for asthma prevalence rated Arizona among the highest regions of risk for men.

A professionally installed Phoenix Trane CleanEffects™ Air Cleaner system can make the difference between comfortable living and the critical risks of anaphylaxis. The staff at the Mayo Clinic defines anaphylaxis as a severe, potentially deadly allergic reaction. The complications come on quickly and within seconds of contact with a substance that triggers your immune systems allergic responses. When anaphylaxis occurs:

  • Your immune system dumps a flood of chemicals into your body
  • Your blood pressure takes a sudden drop
  • Your airways constrict
  • Normal breathing is hindered and sometimes fully blocked
  • The situation becomes critical and requires immediate emergency injection of epinephrine.

Some asthma conditions do not involve allergic responses. These non-allergic forms of asthma can be triggered by cold air, infections, pollution and stress. Yet of the 200,000 plus Arizona residents with asthma, nearly half have allergy-related asthma. Cleansing your home of animal dander, dust mites, mold and pollen may be one of the best decisions you ever make.

If you or some near and dear Phoenix regional loved one suffers from allergic reactions to environmental triggers, consider the benefits proven to accompany an Arizona installation of the Trane CleanEffects™ Air filtration system.

Trane Air Conditioning Troubleshooting, Fix Your Trane Heat Pump Now

Trane Air Conditioning TroubleshootingTrane Air Conditioning Troubleshooting – Sometimes Simple and Sometimes Not

When correctly installed by a professional Phoenix heating and cooling technician, your Trane heat pump or Trane A/C system should function effectively, energy efficient and trouble free. However, time conquers all equipment, including the best of the best in heating and cooling products. But before you call for a qualified Arizona Trane heating and cooling service tech, cover the following basic Trane Air Conditioning troubleshooting steps.   

Trane A/C Troubleshooting, the Simple Side 

The following details deal with heat pumps and central air conditioning systems. Sometimes heating and cooling complications are related to product age. Sometimes they can occur due to poor Phoenix A/C installation practices. Yet even if you have an extended fully transferable 10-year Trane Air Conditioning Registered Limited Warranty Protection program on parts only, labor only or parts and labor, not every problem requires immediate contact with your Arizona Trane A/C repair center. Remember: Air Conditioning service calls, even when covered under warranty, can cost you in time, missed work hours and the discomfort of going without a functioning A/C even if only for a few hours.  

The causes of improper heating and cooling can range from minor and simple to major and complex. The Trane Air Conditioning troubleshooting tips listed here primarily focus on quick home remedies. They are as follows: 

Thermostat/Control Incorrectly Set – This may seem like an obvious Trane Air Conditioning troubleshooting step, but if you live with a houseful of kids the thermostat/control may not be set like you think it is. Even if you are running the cream-of-the-crop Trane ComfortLink™ II programmable controller with remote access, live weather and indoor/outdoor air temperature monitoring, the system is human managed. Make a thermostat check your first stop.  

No Airflow – Start by checking the system filters. The Trane CleanEffects™ collector is designed for rinse or vacuum cleaning. Likewise, the Trane FreshEffects™ filter permits easy slide out cleaning. Don’t permit a clogged filter to hinder your indoor comfort.

Frozen Coil – While considering the possibilities of a clogged indoor filter, you should also check for a frozen or dirty coil system. If you notice water beneath the unit and a cold exterior surface on the coil enclosure, try shutting down the system thermostat for several hours. Note: Even if a shutdown permits the unit to defrost and restart, a frozen coil indicates the need to contact your Phoenix Trane Air Conditioning repair center. 

Tripped Circuit Breaker – In older homes, the electrical wiring is often substandard to modern requirements. Older wiring and circuits are more easily overloaded than new equipment. If your heating or cooling system has come to a complete halt, effective Trane Air Conditioning troubleshooting begins by checking the A/C, HP or Air Handler circuit breakers. If a reset is necessary, ask yourself three questions: 

  1. Is the breaker directly linked to the heating and cooling equipment or does it trace back to the primary home breaker box?
  2. Is this an ongoing problem throughout the home or is it isolated to the Trane Heat Pump or Trane Air Conditioning system?
  3. Did a recent electrical storm cause a household-wide electrical failure? 

The answer to these questions directs the next step in your Trane A/C or Trane Heat Pump troubleshooting session. If the failure is due to a recent household electrical outage, the problem may not need any further attention. If the failure traces back to the primary home breaker box, and it is not due to a recent household electrical outage, you may need to contact an Arizona electrician rather than your Phoenix Trane AC installation professional. Likewise, if the problem tracks to the installed Trane A/C breaker box, call the installer. Something is amiss in the unit. 

Warning: Before resetting any circuit breakers, investigate your installed Arizona A/C system for signs of physical damage due to high winds, rocks thrown from lawn mower equipment and more. You should also work with a partner: One person to reset the breaker and the other to keep watch over the unit of signs of immediate need for shutdown. 

Problems That May Require Professional Arizona Trane Air Conditioning Troubleshooting 

  • Indoor unit functions but the outdoor unit doesn’t
  • Extreme increase in electrical usage
  • Excessive system cycling
  • System fails to achieve thermostat set point
  • System runs continuously
  • Overflowing drip pan. 

Some of the above problems can be related to thermostat settings, an increase in local utility rates, an extreme increase in local temperatures or the purchase of new home appliances. However, it may be that you need the skills and training of a professional Arizona Trane Heat Pump or Trane Air Conditioning Troubleshooting expert. If you have taken the basic A/C troubleshooting steps to no avail, click here to contact American Cooling and Heating. We can fix your Trane A/C equipment.

 

Expert Carrier AC Installation for Cool Phoenix Living

Written by Rm Harrington on . Posted in AC Installation, Arizona Air Conditioning Installation, Carrier, Carrier Air Conditioning Arizona.

Home air conditioning is all about personal and family comfort. But what you buy, how much you spend and how effective if works depends as much on location and installation as it does on product quality. Carrier produces some of the best home air conditioning systems in the world, but how do you know which Carrier A/C system best fits your Phoenix AZ home, and which expert Carrier AC installation crew can get the job done quickly, efficiently and right?

 

What’s It Like To Live In Arizona, Around The Valley, In Gilbert, Mesa And Other Phoenix Regions?

On the positive side, you can expect sunny days, some harsh weather and some nice weather, toll-free roads, gun laws that favor the victim rather than the criminal, good people with conservative attitudes, few labor disputes, and a mixture of climate and geography that includes canyons, forests and deserts.

On the negative side, you may encounter a shortage of competitive jobs, an economy too dependent on construction and retiree-owned real estate, dry air and perhaps an over-abundance of sun, lots of small houses too close together, a shortage of shade, and that awesome endless press of summer heat.

In other words, Arizona is not New York City and the need for high performance expert Carrier AC installation and cooling power rules dominate for more than seven months per year.

 

Quite Comfort With Installed Carrier A/C in Phoenix

Weather is often unpredictable, but around Gilbert, Peoria, Scottsdale and other valley regions, the heat typically far surpasses the cool. Home should be a place for comfort and relaxation. An American Cooling and Heating installed Carrier air conditioning system assures you and your family of reliable, energy-efficient and long-term home comfort.

Carrier home heating and cooling equipment is crafted to provide precise and consistent user control of air quality, room-to-room temperature and humidity levels. The units are designed for quiet operation with the:

  • Infinity® Series coming in with sound levels as low as 69dB to 65dB
  • Performance Compact and the Performance/ Comfort™ Series ranging from 68dB to 73dB
  • AND the Comfort/Base systems tapping in at a mere 72dB.

 

Energy-Efficient Arizona Home Cooling With Expert Carrier AC Installation

Carrier has introduced some of the most ground-breaking heating and cooling technology on the market. From heat pumps to central air conditioners and from ductless systems to furnaces, the energy efficiency of the Carrier HVAC product line ranks with the best in the world with the:

  • Infinity/ Performance™ Series stroking up to 18 SEER and 13.7 EER
  • Performance Compact and the Performance/ Comfort™ Series coming in at up to 18 SEER and 13.8 EER
  • AND the Comfort/Base systems pushing out up to 16.5 SEER and up to 13.5 EER.

 

Expert Arizona Carrier AC Installation

In a metaphorical sense of location, friendly people and a diversified environment Arizona is a cool place to live. In a literal sense of pressing temperatures and harsh wind patterns, Arizona can be a very hot place to live. Carrier air conditioning can make the difference between good living and miserable living. The equipment is designed to provide efficient, cost-effective heating and cooling. However, without expert Arizona Air Conditioning installation, even the best HVAC product on the market can perform poorly and inadequately.

Carrier is crafted for comfort. The Infinity® Series, Infinity/ Performance™ Series and the 24CB7 Model of the Performance/ Comfort™ Series take advantage of 2-stage scroll compressor technology. All Carrier units can be purchased with optional labor warranties, Ozone-friendly Puron refrigerant and a 10-year limited parts warranty (providing that the current product registration requirements are fully satisfied.

Amana ASXC18: A Phoenix ACH Close-up On the Amana ASXC18

Amana premium air conditionersAC&H Central Air Conditioning Review of the Amana ASXC18

With 2013 in full swing and a tad over half finished, it’s a good time to consider which Air Conditioning systems provide the best value for your Gilbert, Mesa, Scottsdale or other Phoenix area home or business. Arizona-based American Cooling and Heating services, repairs and installs Amana A/C products as well as various other top line HVAC equipment. This review is not designed to favor one brand above another, but rather identifies the pros and cons of the Amana ASXC18.

Buying central air conditioning or heat pump equipment is never easy. The choices in brand name, available options, features, and the specifics of your Phoenix air conditioning installation needs can hinder a straight-forward purchase. By knowing which units of a given brand name stand out above the competitors, you can make a better choice. By knowing which units work well in AZ terrain, the choice becomes even more narrow. For your convenience, the experts at AC&H have put together a set of criteria that measure A/C performance based upon:

  • Durability
  • Performance
  • Price
  • AND Warranty.

Please keep in mind that all successful and efficient Phoenix Air Conditioning installations must include a measuring of site specifics, customer expectations and unit matching to existing structural conditions. Also understand that effective A/C selection also depends upon local climate, seasonal temperature variations and the associated energy requirements of the area.

The premium Amana ASXC18 makes a nice budget selection for Phoenix regional heating and cooling. Your home or business may be better suited to a smaller system or even a larger system. The AC&H tech team is on hand 24/7 to help you make the best air conditioning equipment choice for your precise needs.

 

Amana ASXC18, A Premium Air Conditioning Product at Budget-Level Pricing

For a premium A/C priced for budget-level cooling system, the popular Amana ASXC18 provides superior cooling performance, high-efficiency output and quiet operation. With reasonable pricing for reliable operation and durable performance, the ASXC18 comes in as a top value for 2013 A/C equipment. The Amana premium lifetime replace limited warranty topped off with a 10-year limited warranty on parts gets Arizona residents and businesses a cost-effective cooling unit that handles Arizona temperatures with relative ease.

As a total cooling package, the Amana ASXC18:

  • Provides up to 18 SEER performance
  • Uses R-410A Chlorine-Free Refrigerant
  • Is compatible with the Amana ComfortNet™ Communications System
  • Includes the features of Copeland ComfortAlert™ diagnostics routines
  • Takes advantage of the Copeland® UltraTech™ two-stage scroll compressor
  • Includes a factory-installed filter drier
  • Uses coil and ambient temperature sensors
  • Includes wire grille for fan discharge
  • Ships as a compact footprint unit
  • Coil guard is constructed of louvered steel
  • Sweat connection service valves make for easy access gage ports
  • AND includes a quiet, two-speed condenser fan motor.

Depending on the sub-model, the ASXC18 outputs a cooling capacity of 35,000 to 57,000  BTU/h. The condenser fan runs at 1/3 horsepower (RPM) on all sub-models, and the Amana ASXC18 voltage-phase-hz for all sub-models holds at 208/230-1-60. Unit height, width and depth on all sub-models is 38-1/4, 35-1/2 and 35-1/5 respectively.

 

What Do the Amana ASXC18 Specs Mean To You?

The Amana ASXC18 rates as a great budget pick. It’s quality Air Conditioning at reasonable pricing. The system is quiet, backed by an excellent warranty and priced less than the more expensive models that rank high for 2013 performance. On the downside, some Amana products come in with a reliable reputation issue that falls a bit below the central air conditioning systems offered by other vendors. The unit can achieve up to an 18-SEER rating, yet Consumer Search reports actual ranges that fall between 15 and 19. The measure of energy efficiency ratio (EER) hangs between 11.2 and 13.25, making it possible that your installed ASXC18 will miss the Energy Start rating that permits a tax credit.

Pricing of the ASXC18 ranges from a 3-ton at $2,550 to a 5-ton at $3,300. This makes the unit a great budget pick that still affords quality performance. The unit may miss out on federal tax credits and utility company rebates. However, the 10-year limited warranty on parts, and the availability of a lifetime limited warranty on the compressor and the condensing unit can easily makeup for minor gains through tax credits and utility rebates. All in all, the ASXC18 remains a top A/C budget-choice for 2013.

 

Quality of Installation Makes the Deciding Factor

The final performance factor of any installed Phoenix Air Conditioning system depends as much on the skills of the installer as it does the expected ratings of the unit. When correctly matched to your Gilbert, Mesa or Scottsdale home, the Amana ASXC18 provides an effective budget-solution to your heating and cooling needs.

American Cooling and Heating is fully trained and equipped to ensure that your selected A/C system:

  • Suits your personal comfort needs
  • Exceeds the requirements of your home structure and layout

For busy people, energy efficient heating and cooling equipment may seem like it popped out of the factory almost as soon as Willis Haviland Carrier produced the first life-style changing air conditioning system. But in truth, Major technological changes do not occur so quickly. Consider the following time frame:

· 1758 – John Hadley from Cambridge University discovered that certain liquids evaporate quick enough to freeze water.
· 1830 – The first patented ice-making machine came on the scene. The inventor used airflow to produce a rudimentary form of air conditioning, but he lacked the financial backing to make the project succeed.
· 1902 – Willis Carrier crafted and introduced the design for modern air-conditioning equipment. The device was successful. Carrier Air Conditioning Company of American came into existence.
· 1932 – The individual room A/C came on the market at a modern equivalency price of $120,000 to $600,000 per unit.
· 1953 – Production methods advanced. Prices dropped. The sale of residential air conditioning tipped the one million units mark.
· 1970 – Central Air Conditioning entered the home cooling market. Condenser, coils, a fan and ductwork used R-12 Freon to provide economic home cooling solutions.
· 1994 – Scientists noted the dangers of R-12 Freon. Environmental protection forced a switch to less damaging refrigerants. The changeover is still in works today.
· 2011 – Greenspeed™ Technology enabled three-ton Carrier® Infinity® Heat Pumps to deliver up to 69-percent greater heating efficiency.
· 2012 – In the Annual EID: Silver Awards, appliance DESIGN Magazine says that the variable-speed Carrier® Infinity® 20 Heat Pump (Model 25VNA) with Greenspeed™ Intelligence provides “precise delivery of heating and cooling comfort in longer, lower speed run times.”

After 250 years of A/C-related technological advances, Greenspeed™ Technology ups the stakes. When the Carrier® Infinity® 20 Heat Pump is combined with Carrier® Greenspeed™ Intelligence, Arizona customers get an air conditioning system that is one of the world’s most advanced.
