Home Performance
Did you know that your home can actually work even harder to save energy and make you and your family more comfortable?
Your home is a system and its components all contribute to your comfort, health, safety and energy efficiency. A.J. Michaels looks at how improvements made throughout your home can work together to provide a better living environment. In fact, the house-as-a-system approach can reduce homeowner annual utility bills by as much as 50%!
Looking at your home from this angle, we can lessen, solve, or even prevent problems such as:
- Inconsistent room-to-room temperatures
- Indoor allergen and other poor indoor air quality issues
- Moisture, mold and mildew
- Safety issues related to backdraft of appliance fumes, auto exhaust and radon gas
We’ll pinpoint hard–to–find leaks, check for inefficiencies in your heating and cooling systems, measure indoor air quality and show you any number of ways to conserve hot water and electricity through the following services:
- Whole-home energy audits
- Duct sealing by Aeroseal
- Indoor air quality and ventilation
Let us help your home work harder today!
We have 12-year-old high-efficiency HVAC system with a Spacepak and flexible tubing (not duct work) in the attic of our house. During a routine maintenance visit, the tech from the company that originally installed our system claimed that we needed to replace the entire system although we had not had any problems. He insisted the system was rusty and moldy (but could not be cleaned) and that the coolent (which had never leaked or caused any issues) was obsolete per the EPA. He gave us an estimate of $16,000!!! We desperately searched for an HVAC company that could service a Spacepak and fortunately found A. J. Michaels. We could not have been more pleased with their service. Jim, the supervisor, came out quickly and gave us an estimate of $160 to clean the Spacepak with bleach and install a tube (which the original company had forgotten to install) to keep the HVAC system from drawing in moisture from outside. Jake, a pleasant and smart young technician, arrived a few days later to quickly clean the system and install the tubing up in the attic. Amazing service at an unbelievable price.
