There’s so much HVAC info out there that’s just plain wrong—which is why we devote time every month to debunking these persistent untruths. Here are three more: ❌ Myth 1: “Turning the thermostat way down cools the house faster.” Truth: Your system cools at the same rate, no matter how low you set the thermostat. Cranking it down wastes energy and overworks your unit. ✅ What to do instead: Set your thermostat to a reasonable temperature and let the system do its job. ❌ Myth 2: “Space heaters are cheaper than running central heat.” Truth: While they can provide spot heating, running multiple space heaters is far less efficient than a properly maintained central system. ✅ What to do instead: Ensure your central heat is optimized and well-maintained—it’s more cost-effective. ❌ Myth 3: “Thermostats can be placed anywhere in the house.” Truth: Poor placement (near windows or heat sources) can cause inaccurate readings, forcing your system to work harder than necessary. ✅ What to do instead: Install your thermostat away from drafts and direct sunlight for accurate temperature control. - - - #hvac #hvaclife #airconditioning #hvactechnician #hvacservice #hvactech #heating #generators #hvacr #hvacinstall #hvacrepair #cooling #ac #heatingandcooling #construction #hvactools #airconditioner #applicancerepair #refrigeration #hvaclove #hvaccontractor #electrical #appliances #contractor #hvacquality #furnace #maintenance #hvacmaintenance #acrepair #hvachacks
