Is Airflow Important to My HVAC Efficiency?

The simple answer is yes. If you run an HVAC system, the control of that air is an essential part of efficiency. Consider all the cool air from your unit being trapped in one room. Would you call that an efficient use of the HVAC system? Probably not.

How does air travel around your home? This time, the answer is more complex. The orientation of the building, where windows are positioned, and several other factors contribute to how air travels through your home.

HVAC Air Flow

How your HVAC system is installed plays an important role in efficiency. The HVAC unit can only pump air where it is directed. Having your HVAC system inspected is the best way to determine whether or not you have airflow problems.

Issues like gaps between window frames can impact the efficiency of air flow. Without a proper inspection, it is often difficult to identify problems. Other issues include closing doors and windows that trap air in a way that is detrimental to optimum air quality.
