A popping disturbance is a common sign of an insufficient duct design. This takes place when there’s greater airflow than your ductwork can handle.
Troubles with your ductwork can bring up other ventilation and air quality troubles, such as:
Call a qualified contractor in Jackson like Comfortech Service Experts to examine your residence’s ventilation system. We can advise options for duct repair or installation.
It’s common for your heating and cooling system to make a small amount of noise. However, hearing weird or loud noises might mean there’s an electrical issue or an error with the blower fan or capacitor. If not fixed, there could be serious (or expensive) aftermath.
This could be as a result of improper thermostat settings. Verify that the fan blower is set to “auto” and not “on.” Other factors include a damaged pilot light, restricted air flow due to dirty or jammed furnace filters, or blocked condensate pipes. If issues persist, call Comfortech Service Experts for quick repair.
Most companies will suggest heater replacement if the cost to repair your unit is more than half the cost of a new utit. At times, a repair won’t restore the furnace system to a minimally effective level. The lifetime for most furnaces is 15-20 years, and so replacement is usually advised during that time frame. For other considerations, visit our blog covering more information on when to repair or replace your furnace.
It’s often more affordable to replace your heater and AC system at the same time. Additionally, you’ll also enjoy higher energy efficiency year-round. Here’s when you should replace both systems at the same time:

Small tasks like changing the air filter and keeping your equipment tidy can go a long way in improving energy efficiency. Check out our full guide for savings you can earn by keeping your HVAC system healthy.
Central AC systems are ducted HVAC units that draw out heat from your home. There are also heat pump air conditioners, which extract heat with a reversible flow of coolant, as well as ductless mini-split systems.
The right sized AC system depends upon the size of your house, the local climate and also numerous other variables. You need to correctly size the AC system to ensure optimal energy efficiency.
British thermal units are a kind of measurement used in cooling to illustrate how much energy your AC unit needs to absorb heat. If it states 10,000 BTUs, the model is capable of absorbing that much heat each hour.
Routine maintenance is extremely beneficial for your air conditioner. While it’s not necessarily required, it’s an exceptional investment in the energy effectiveness and overall performance of your HVAC system. In most scenarios, having seasonal maintenance and upkeep also keeps the manufacturer’s warranty up to date.
Ductless air conditioning does not use air ducts to transfer cold air through a home. Instead, indoor air units blow the cold air straight into the room or space they’re set up in.
SEER means Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, which determines how efficiently your air conditioner is cooling over its busiest season. Check our our SEER Ratings Guide for homeowners to learn more.
Heat pumps are extremely energy efficient, but might begin to lose performance in severely cold weather conditions. Visit our guide for identifying if a heat pump or air conditioner is right for cooling your home.
The cost of air conditioning services depends on the make and model, the extent of the issue and other factors. For many common repairs, you may expect to pay a couple hundred for components and labor.
The cost for AC installation largely depends on the size of the home and the replacement AC unit the you choose. The installation cost can be well over $12,000, depending on the size of the home and the replacement AC that is chosen for the home. Our Advantage Program helps homeowners have access to the AC systems they need for one low monthly price.
It’s often less costly to replace your furnace and air conditioner at the same time. Plus, you’ll also enjoy greater energy efficiency year-round. If your systems are older than 15 years or you need a high-efficiency model or smart thermostat, you should have a new AC and furnace installed together.
We install all types of cooling systems, including central AC systems, geothermal, heat pumps and ductless mini-splits. Schedule a quote to find the right fit for your home by calling Comfortech Service Experts at 601-852-3105.
We offer HVAC financing options as well as the HVAC Advantage Program, which covers everything from new units to repairs* and maintenance for an affordale monthly fee.
Some of the work during an air conditioner tune-up includes a standard AC maintenance checklist:
There are usually many kinds of maintenance plans and rates. Have a look at our memberships page to learn about our tiered maintenance memberships.
Seasonal air conditioner maintenance is important to keeping your equipment operating successfully, and it can reduce the need for unexpected replacements.
Some key tells that you need air conditioning maintenance services on your system is if your home has poor air movement or hot and cold areas, leaks, uncommon sounds or warm air coming from the vents.
Check this full guide to AC maintenance for different things you can do. One of the most important things homeowners can do to help preserve their system, other than having annual yearly or seasonal maintenance done, is to replace your AC unit’s air filter every 60-90 days, or 30 days if you have pets. Replacing your filter on a routine basis can prolong the life span of your system by reducing wear and tear on the unit, preventing clogs and improving air movement. Using a higher quality HEPA filter can also help maintain the AC system’s efficiency and minimize instances of sickness in your house.
Yes. Our pros are just a short trip away to help with an AC repair or replacement during an emergency.
Most companies will advise an AC replacement when the expense to fix your system is more than half the cost of a new system. For more considerations, see our article covering more information on whether to repair or replace your AC.
We service and install all types, including central A/C, ductless mini-splits as well as air-source heat pumps. (Conditional content: As an effort to encourage sustainable HVAC, we also install geothermal and solar HVAC.)
Heat pumps transfer heat in or out of the building instead of creating it. This process is also reversible, allowing heat pumps to provide both heating and cooling.
Homeowners should have their heat pump system serviced at least once a year. This will help prolong the system’s life span and help to reduce repair and utility costs.
Maintaining energy-efficient equipment helps bring costs down. Check our helpful in-depth tips about keeping your systems healthy. This will tell you about proper maintenance and why it’s important.
Yes. We’re just a short ways away, whether you need heat pump repair or replacement on a weekend day or in the middle of the night. Call 601-852-3105 for prompt service.
Heat pumps can provide both heating and cooling, and air-source heat pumps tend to be best suited in moderate climates where temps don’t dip below 10 degrees Fahrenheit.
A heat pump system can replace a heating system in areas where the climate is temperate. Check our more detailed guide on different heat pump uses in the U.S. Usually, the answer is yes. Because heat pumps transfer hot air rather than creating it from a fuel source, they offer more efficiency than furnaces in many cases, and homeowners can anticipate 30-40% savings on utility expenses when transitioning.
This depends on differing issues that are leading to the need for repairs, which our ACE-certified technicians can help determine.
We install all different types of heat pumps systems, such as air-source heat pumps that utilize central ductwork, ductless mini-split systems and ground-source heat pumps–also known as geothermal heat pumps).
Heat pump maintenance is important for the system to execute successfully and have a long life expectancy. A heat pump should go through regular maintenance at least one time a year. Trust the Experts to handle this with a maintenance membership.
Your home’s air filter needs to be changed on a routine basis, which is typically every 30 to 60 days.
Seasonal maintenance agreements are worth the cost for many reasons. Consistent maintenance keeps everything working as smoothly as feasible, which helps reduce power bills while extending your equipment’s life expectancy.
HVAC tune-ups can often be covered in many cases through the labor warranty if your system is still within warranty, but we can check to see if tune-ups are covered. Through the Advantage Program™, crucial services such as heat pump maintenance are included! It’s one of the most comprehensive HVAC plans around.
Many customers pay between $250 and $600 for a heat pump repair, but this depends on what the problem is when the HVAC technician arrives to diagnose the issue.
Heat pumps have a slightly shorter life span than furnaces do since they’re used all year, but with adequate, many heat pump systems last about 10-15 years.
Yes. Our Experts are just a short drive away to assist with a heat pump repair or replacement during an emergency.
Packaged HVAC units are all-in-one HVAC systems that have an air handler and unit parts in one metal cabinet system. This is used to maximize space in a basement or garage, or on rooftops in multifamily buildings.
We install all types of packaged HVAC systems, including packaged air conditioners, packaged gas/electric systems, packaged heat pumps and duel-fueled packaged systems. Give Comfortech Service Experts a call to find the right one for your home.
Green energy HVAC focuses on reducing energy consumption and increasing the efficiency of existing HVAC systems in homes not set up for renewable energy options. Properly sized green installations reduce waste and increase output.
Some of the most energy-efficient HVAC systems available now are geothermal heat pumps and solar HVAC systems. Call 601-852-3105 today to have a conversation about system replacement if you’re interested.
High-efficiency HVAC systems use less energy than a standard HVAC system while providing the same (or better) output. This can save energy and money, and with regular tune-ups and maintenance, the life span of your system can increase. The longer a system is performing efficiently, the better impact we can have for sustainability.
There are rebates and incentive programs for certain new system installations in 2023. Comfortech Service Experts can help you navigate discounts and payment for system replacements. We also offer payment options like financing as well as HVAC lease options with our Advantage Program™.
Geothermal systems use energy from below ground to provide heating and cooling. They implement a “loop” system drawing heat from either the ground or a water source in heating mode. While cooling, this process works in reverse by extracting heat from indoors to the ground or a water source. The cold air in cooling mode is the result of the process of removing heat and humidity as air is recirculated.
Geothermal HVAC can end up saving money long term due to smaller utility bills, despite higher initial costs. And they’re more efficient than conventional, forced-air systems. There are also federal rebates and incentives that we can help you navigate during the installation process.
Rather than generating their own heat, geothermal systems use the Earth’s natural ambient temperature for heating and cooling. You end up reducing your monthly utility bills, and geothermal systems will also usually last longer. As long as you keep up with maintenance, you can get 20 years from a geothermal heat pump and as much as 50+ years for an underground loop system.
Yes! Geothermal heat pumps are similar to traditional central heat pumps in that they are dual function systems capable of providing both heating and cooling. Even though it just has ‘heat’ in the name, geothermal heat pumps are equally effective at cooling homes in many different climates. As a matter of fact, they’re one of the most efficient types of HVAC systems today!
Solar technology converts sunlight to electrical energy with either PV (photovoltaic) panels or with mirrors designed to focus solar radiation. PV technology is mostly found in solar panels, which are the most common solar energy system. The sun’s light energy is absorbed by PV cells, which stimulates the cells’ electrons and produces electrical energy. When combined with battery storage, the process can even generate backup power for use at night and during outages.
Pros:
Cons:
Solar energy systems can be a significant investment, but the majority of such costs can be recouped as soon as the equipment has been active for a few years. Batteries without panels can range from $12,000 to $22,000 based on energy storage capacity, while a full install with PV panels can run as much as $35,000. Request a free quote with Comfortech Service Experts to find out what you need for a solar energy system.
Solar energy can be used for solar HVAC systems in addition to other suitable equipment such as solar-powered water heaters.
The effectiveness of installing solar panels for your home depends on the local climate of where you live. Don’t hesitate to give us a call to schedule a quote and start the conversation for a solar energy installation.
Our solar Experts can assist in providing information. It’s also a good idea to learn if there are other programs in your state apart from the 30% federal tax credit. Lastly, it’s best to have a dependable company like Comfortech Service Experts perform a home energy audit. A thorough audit determines how much you could save with solar panel installation in comparison to current utility costs.
Sustainable HVAC design is providing HVAC systems to homeowners and building owners with a focus on high-efficiency systems, achieving higher performance, while decreasing consumption and energy loss.
The most common sustainable HVAC systems are geothermal heat pumps, also known as ground source heat pumps or water source heat pumps.
High-efficiency HVAC systems achieve high performance (heating and cooling output) while consuming less energy than what was needed from older, less efficient models.
Green HVAC installation focuses on adding energy-efficient HVAC models and right sizing systems for the home’s requirements to ensure a high level of comfort and efficient energy use.
Geothermal and solar HVAC are the most up-to-date sustainable HVAC developments in heating and cooling.
Scheduling regular maintenance on your HVAC systems can help prolong your system’s life span, which is a big step for household sustainability. Smart thermostats also regulate the daily temperature of your home and assist with zoning, which reduces stress on your systems by not having major temperature adjustments. Using energy-efficient HVAC systems can also be a big step in making your HVAC eco-friendly. High-efficiency HVAC systems are typically ENERGY STAR certified, which reduces carbon emissions by reaching high performance for less energy.
There are rebates and incentives in 2023 for adding energy-efficient HVAC models, such as high-efficiency heat pumps. The Department of Energy reviews HVAC efficiency standards and adjusts the minimum efficiency ratings on models, such as SEER rating, AFUE rating and HSPF rating, based on the latest research. This requires manufacturers to meet the minimum efficiency ratings in all new models.
Popping sounds are common if there’s a problem or damage in your ductwork. The actual sounds appear when there’s more airflow than your ductwork can handle. Problems with your ductwork can lead to other ventilation and air quality issues, such as:
A whole-home zoning system helps you adjust where heating and cooling is focused. With extra thermostats and dampers installed in the ductwork, each zone’s temperature can be independently adjusted.
The concentration of indoor airborne particles average 3-5 times more than outdoor air. In fact, EPA research has found that exposure to contaminants can be 100 times higher indoors as compared to outdoors. Allergens, microorganisms and even household cleaning products can contribute to contamination and degrade your indoor air quality. You can obtain a total Home Health® Report Card by contacting the air quality specialists at Comfortech Service Experts.
A licensed electrician can do an electrical load calculation to determine the right measurement of service necessary for a home or business. This calculation takes into account the electrical needs of appliances, lighting, and other electrical devices.
A few safety precautions include shutting off the power supply before working on any electrical component, using insulated tools, wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and following electrical codes and legal standards.
It is recommended that electrical service be inspected at the very least every 10 years to verify that it is safe and up to code.
Signs of electrical service issues include flickering lights, frequent circuit breaker trips, hot or discolored electrical outlets or switches, buzzing sounds from outlets or switches and burning smells. Another sign is improper outlets in the kitchen or bathroom – which should be GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlets. This is a shock-resistant outlet that acts as a safety measure and helps prevent fire hazards since water is a great conductor of electricity.
Efficiency may be improved by using energy-efficient appliances and light bulbs, adding insulation to walls and attics as well as sealing air leaks.
Indoor air quality refers to pollution in your Jackson home or workplace. The level of airborne pollutants can be 2–5 times higher than outdoors. Considering that most people spend 90% of their time inside and breathe roughly 3,000 gallons of air everyday (according to the American Lung Association), this can eventually lead to problems.
Depending on your specific air quality concerns, solutions include:
Some of the most common sources of pollutants include Volatile Organic Chemicals (VOCs) such as cleaning or personal care products, fuel-burning utilities and appliances, and particulate matter like dust, pollen and smoke.
Definitely. Pollutants and particulate matter can promote illnesses and worsen respiratory conditions, particularly for children and the elderly. For certain contaminants like carbon monoxide, the effects may even be fatal.
Resolving indoor air quality challenges can produce a host of benefits to your health and well-being, such as:
If you find yourself cleaning each day or coughing continuously, your indoor air may be to blame. According to EPA studies, indoor pollutants can reach concentrations as much as 100 times higher than the air outdoors. You can find out your indoor air quality by scheduling a Home Health® Report consultation with Comfortech Service Experts.
Each family has their own perception of home comfort, especially if someone in your Jackson home has sensitivity to pollen, dust or other pollutants that cause respiratory problems. You may require a single product like a high-efficiency air filtration system, or multiple. Comfortech Service Experts can aid you in identifying the right combination of equipment.
No. HVAC air filters differ in quality and design, and several have exclusive features. We usually suggest using the filter your HVAC manufacturer recommends for your particular system. All filters are assigned MERV ratings on a scale from 1–20. MERV stands for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value and can help you identify high-efficiency filters. In most homes, a MERV rating of 11 or lower will be sufficient.
The ideal schedule for cleaning or replacing your air filter is based on a variety of factors, like the filter design and MERV rating as well as the existing indoor air quality. For conventional 1”-3” filters, most brands advise replacement every 30-90 days. Pets, health conditions and even community pollution sources can encourage replacing the filter more often.
Presuming the problem is not your body’s hydration, very dry air can irritate your throat and sinuses. Consider getting a whole-home humidifier if you continuously struggle with a dry, itchy throat.
Your HVAC system extracts moisture as it functions, producing situations where humidity levels become unbalanced. Portable humidifiers can fix humidity challenges in a single room or small area, but a central humidifier ensures balanced humidity throughout the whole home.
For most people, comfortable humidity levels fall between 30-60%. These levels are rather hard to sustain in the winter, as frigid air does not hold onto moisture as well as warm air. Furthermore, your furnace displaces moisture by generating hot, dry heat.
The smartest way to determine an appropriate whole-house humidifier is by measuring the height of your ceiling multiplied by the total square footage of the room. This will help figure out how many gallons of water each hour is needed to balance humidity.
You should also think about your household budget, as a humidifier needs maintaining just like any other mechanical device.
It depends on the model, but whole-house humidifiers average between 1.5 to 12 gallons per day. Obviously, dry locations will use more water to keep humidity in check.
Scheduled preventive maintenance is often crucial for sustainable equipment efficiency, and your humidifier is no different. The humidifier’s reservoir should be regularly drained and cleaned to prevent mold.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas produced by partial fuel combustionthat is commonly caused by inadequate access to oxygen. Appliances relying on natural gas, charcoal, wood or kerosene are common sources of CO gas, usually if they are not running correctly or have been installed incorrectly. CO is toxic to the body and is fatal at high levels or prolonged exposure.
Initial signs such as nausea and exhaustion are often incorrectly recognized as a result of the flu. But CO gas exposure can develop, potentially leading to confusion, organ damage or even death. Other symptoms include:
Yes. Getting rid of carbon monoxide should be a top priority because of the jeopardy it poses to your health and well-being. CO gas can be found in any Jackson home or commercial property, making effective ventilation and prevention strategies universally beneficial.
Prevention is the best place to start. A few safety precautions to take include:
If carbon monoxide has been found, you should immediately vacate the building and call the fire department and utility provider. If a leak is spotted, you should then contact a trusted HVAC company for repairs.
Because carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless and life-threatening in substantial concentrations, using carbon monoxide detectors in central locations is the best way to warn you to its presence.
A carbon monoxide detector is like a smoke alarm, monitoring the air and notifying you if carbon monoxide levels are too high. Preferably, you should have at least one detector near every bedroom on all levels in your home. Additional detectors can be placed near the kitchen, living areas or near combustion appliances. These detectors are most effective when used in combination with our HVAC maintenance memberships, which keep your product in good shape and can help you prevent carbon monoxide.
If an air freshener isn’t doing the trick, there may be microbes or contaminants nearby producing the unpleasant odor. Bacteria and mold are common sources, but they can be treated with the sanitation properties of a germicidal UV light. They are especially effective against odor-producing microorganisms and viruses.
If you notice your supply of hot water isn’t lasting long, it might be because something’s wrong with your tank water heater. The heating element may be covered in grime or mineral buildup.
A toilet that won’t stop running could be dealing with any number of issues, including a broken flapper seal, flush valve or flapper chain. You may find it’s the handle itself that’s been damaged and separated from the chain. A running toilet wastes a lot of water, so it’s important to call Expert plumbers promptly at 601-852-3105.
One of the most common reasons your dishwasher isn’t draining fully is because there’s a clog in the drain line. The line, also called a drain hose, removes water from the dishwasher tub once the cycle is over. If the drain line is clogged, water may not be able to flow properly. Contact our certified plumbers for troubleshooting and repairs.
A fast response is essential when struggling with a broken pipe as a result of freezing. Expert plumbing technicians should handle broken pipe repairs, but there are several things you can do by yourself to keep the pipes from freezing in the first place:
Break down food scraps right away with cold water and leave the disposal on for about 30 seconds to avoid a clog forming. You should also avoid dumping coffee grounds, eggshells, potato peels and other large pieces of food into the disposal, because they may restrict drainage and cause damage and bad smells.
Backflow and the subsequent cross connection can take place anywhere your nonpotable plumbing system meets the water lines. As a result, many different types of fixtures and appliances are at risk, including:
For commercial buildings like industrial facilities, equipment such as boilers, chemical mixing tanks and laboratory equipment are susceptible to backflow, etc.
Backflow preventers stop contaminants from getting into the public water supply and posing a health risk to the community. Backflow prevention is crucial since it helps to ensure that the municipal water supply remains protected and free of contaminants.
There are several types of backflow preventers, including:
The type of backflow preventer you may need depends on your property’s plumbing system and also the most common contaminants the plumbing is vulnerable to. Trusted backflow prevention services should always help determine the most appropriate make and model for your needs.
Your home could have an RPZ or Reduced Pressure Zone. The zone’s consistent pressure functions as a backflow prevention device to stop contaminants from flowing backward. At Comfortech Service Experts, our certified testers specialize in:
Since preventing issues is always simpler than repairing it, you should attempt to have your RPZ valve checked every year as recommended.
Backflow preventers typically need to be tested once a year to ensure that they’re operating correctly, although the ultimate maintenance needs depend on the kind of backflow preventer you have and its current condition.
Backflow preventers are complex technical devices, meaning installation should be left to a specialist with the correct tools and experience. Our backflow prevention professionals can ensure that the device is installed properly and meets all relevant codes and standards.
Costs depend on several factors. You should take into consideration the type of backflow preventer that’s needed as well as the complexity of your property’s plumbing system as well as the cost of any required parts and labor. Give us a call at 601-852-3105 for a free consultation.
There are several signs that can suggest that your backflow preventer is not working right including:
In the event that you notice any of these signs, it is important to contact a professional backflow prevention service provider as soon as possible.
Without having a backflow prevention device, the backflow may contaminate your supply of potable water. This contamination could also enter the public water supply, posing a risk for the entire community. This can leave you exposed to health or legal consequences depending on the severity of the situation.
The regulations and codes that require backflow prevention systems vary by jurisdiction. In many areas, these are required by law for many types of plumbing systems or for plumbing built to handle specific contaminants. A professional backflow prevention service provider can help review any applicable regulations for your plumbing system.

To eliminate the possibility of your garbage disposal smelling, food scraps should always be ground up right away with cool water. Thirty seconds should be more than enough time. Avoid throwing coffee grounds, eggshells, potato peels and banana peels into your disposal, since they frequently cause drainage issues and unpleasant smells. Although bleach seems like a good idea for cleaning your garbage disposal, it hardens grease and other food residue in your pipes, producing clogs.
Our Expert plumbers suggest using these cleaning chemicals each week to keep your disposal smelling brand-new:
