Smart Tips for Wichita HVAC Upkeep

Many older Wichita neighborhoods — like Riverside, College Hill, or Delano — still have original ductwork from the 1960s or earlier. Our blog explains how duct sealing, attic insulation, and smart thermostats help your system run better for less.

Why Fall Tune-Ups Matter

Fall is prime time to schedule your furnace inspection — before the first Kansas cold snap. Our seasonal blog series covers what to check, how to save on fuel, and when it’s time to upgrade. We also break down SEER and AFUE ratings in plain English.

Why Old Refrigerants Cost More

Many older AC units in Kansas still rely on R-22 or early R-410A refrigerants. Due to EPA phase-outs to protect the environment, these coolants are harder to find and more expensive every year — repairs can run double the cost for a simple recharge. Upgrading to newer, eco-friendly refrigerants like R-32 means lower maintenance bills and eligibility for rebates.

Smart Kansas Solution: Hybrid Systems

Many Wichita homeowners now choose a hybrid heat pump plus gas furnace system. The heat pump handles mild spring and fall temps efficiently, while the furnace kicks in for extreme winter cold. This combo keeps your bills low and your comfort steady. Learn more in our other blogs — we break it down step by step.

Fun fact: Each degree you drop your thermostat in winter can save about 3% on heating costs!
