Hooking up your Home’s Central Air Conditioning.

There are several reasons why you may have waited until July in Albuquerque to do this.  Maybe your older home is getting a new a/c system.  Maybe you just waited to see if you needed a new one until things really heated up.  Perhaps you are about to move into a new construction and whole-house air conditioning is a must in four-season ABQ.

Adding central air is more affordable and less disruptive than you might imagine.  That’s the great news!  I don’t know if summers are really getting hotter or we've lost our tolerance for heat as we grow older, lots of us are tempted to yank out noisy, dripping window air conditioners and replace them with a quiet, efficient whole-house central-air-conditioning system.

This is where Daylight Electric and Appliance comes in.  They have been the Albuquerque area’s best friend when the summer season heats up.  Whether it is a repair of your existing all-home air conditioning unit or the installation of a brand new one Justin and his crew will do it right the first time…guaranteed!  Call them today at (505) 864-3980.

Repair or Replace…That is the Question.

With apologies to The Bard, this is truly the question when it comes to your company’s HVAC system.  An inefficient system may not only cost your business money, they can also lead to health, comfort and productivity issues among employees and customers.  So, know the difference between repair and replacement before you act.

Here are some tips –

1.  When should you consult a contractor?  Its repair history will help determine that.

2.  Age.  Ten years is considered to be the life of an average air conditioning system.

3.  Have your utility bills been going up?

4.  Are your employees comfortable in their work environment?

5.  Work with an HVAC pro to plan out a maintenance program.

We hope that the final point will prompt you to call us.  We are Daylight Electric and Appliance serving Belen and the entire Albuquerque area with professional HVAC service and replacement.  Maybe it is time for a new system and maybe it is not.  Call Justin today and find out.  That phone number is (505) 864-3980.

Some Tips Before You Turn on Your A/C.

It won’t be that long now.  The time will come when your home’s air conditioning unit will be turned on for the first time since last year.  With winter behind us hot, humid weather will soon be coming to the Albuquerque area.  Is your home air conditioning ready for the challenges of 2018?

Here are some steps to follow –

1.  Look at the thermostat.  How old is it?

2.  Check exposed duct work for wear and tear.

3.  Look around for blocked air vents.

4.  Check the coil by the indoor cooling unit.

These are things to troubleshoot before cranking up the air conditioning in your home.  To make sure that these steps (and others) are followed to the letter, contact Justin and his Belen, NM area home air conditioning check-up pros at Daylight Electric and Appliance.  There is no substitute for peace of mind!  See the daylight and feel the cool air this summer by calling (505) 864-3980.

Hooking Up your Mobile Home.

What we are talking about here is water, heat, electricity, gas – without those necessities, your mobile home would be nothing more than four walls and a ceiling!  Hooking up these utilities to your mobile home can be a difficult process.  Knowing the ins and outs of properly hooking up your mobile home could save you a lot of grief later.

Setting up utilities to your mobile home is going to be a much easier process if you’re moving into a mobile home park.  Setting up utilities on undeveloped land can be a real headache.  Utility hookups could be as far as a mile away or more in some cases.  The further away your home is from the hookups the more expensive it will be.

Many moving companies will only go so far as to transport your mobile home and leave it to you to find a plumber, electrician, etc. to do the rest of the work. These professionals can be costly.  Enter Justin and Daylight Electric and Appliance.  They are the Albuquerque area’s mobile home hookup professionals.  Call Justin right away at (505) 864-3980.

Converting an A/C System from R-22 to R-410A.

It sounds futuristic if you are not familiar with the process.  It is definitely NOT a DIY job!  Imagine having a diesel engine and wanting to convert it to a gasoline engine.  As it pertains to HVAC systems, the conversion requires replacing the R-22 compressor, evaporator and condenser with units designed to run with R-410A.

Some HVAC professionals in the Albuquerque area may do more than is needed.  For example, knowing exactly when the copper lines connecting the components must be replaced, but it may be possible to clean, flush and dry the lines if they can handle the higher pressures of R-410A.  If you can save money in the process, you’ll be grateful for the honesty!

For years in Belen and surrounding ABQ, business and home owners alike have counted on the honesty and expertise of Justin Day of Daylight Electric and Appliance.  The conversion from R-22 to R-410A is a must, and just as important is having it done right once and for all the first time.  Give Justin a call today at (505) 864-3980.

Getting your A/C Ready for Summer.

I know, don’t say anything.  We may have just about made it through another winter.  Hey, it could have been worse.  You could have been living where the wind chills were way below zero!  Next step…getting ready for a good old New Mexico summer of intense heat at times and a need for quality air conditioning in your home or office.

Before you turn on the A/C this summer –

1.  Make sure that you have complete control over temperature and humidity.

2.  Have the compressor checked.

3.  How is the condenser as well?

4.  What condition is your air conditioner’s filter in?

The bigger picture may be that you need a new system entirely.  Fear not, it will not only make this summer and many to come more comfortable, but increase the value of your home.  The right man and company for any air conditioning work in the Albuquerque area is always Justin Day of Daylight Electric and Appliance.  Call for an A/C check-up at (505) 864-3980.
