Imagine getting out of bed on a cold winter morning, your feet touch the floor and instead of getting a shock from a cold floor, you experience soothing warmth radiating from the floorboards. Radiant heating works by pumping warm water through a series of flexible PEX pipes installed below your floorboards. These pipes are grouped to create several zones in your home, making it easy to control the temperature of specific areas. Units can utilize different heat sources such as boilers, geothermal, gas or solar.

These systems work without the need for ductwork throughout your home. One, large condenser unit is placed outside and attached to multiple, smaller air handlers mounted on walls, barely noticeable inside your home. The smaller air handlers eliminate the need for ducts by having refrigerant from the condenser pumped directly into the units through copper wires inside your walls, allowing you to control the temperature in each room of your home.

Investing in regular tune-ups helps to ensure that your air conditioner will remain working at peak performance. When air converts to a gas (in a process called phase conversion), it absorbs heat. Air conditioners exploit phase conversion by forcing special chemical compounds to evaporate and condense over and over again in a closed system of coils. The compounds involved are refrigerants that have properties enabling them to change at relatively low temperatures. Air conditioners also contain fans that move warm air over the cold, refrigerant-filled coils.

Your office or home's electrical system isn't something you typically think much about until something goes wrong. Yet when something does happen, it's important to have access to an experienced, reliable company. Our electricians have decades of experience to provide you with the safest solutions that meet your needs. Whether you're in need of a panel upgrade, lighting installation or basic electrical repairs, our trusted team of technicians serve homeowners throughout the entire Virginia Beach and Tidewater areas.

Did you know that solar home installation is more affordable today than ever before? Best of all, not only will you save on future utility bills, you'll have access to a variety of economic incentives - and contribute to a more sustainable energy economy by reducing your carbon footprint. Fossil fuels are becoming more and more expensive due to resource depletion, geographical barriers, and health risks (e.g., nuclear plant leaks, oil drilling catastrophes). Solar energy is becoming the more viable alternative and a system of choice for a growing number of homeowners throughout our Commonwealth.

As one of the largest components of your cooling system, the air handler requires expert care and maintenance. We provide professional solutions to ensure your unit is working efficiently and at peak performance. The air handler is usually described as a large gray or metallic-looking box that houses all the relevant sub-components of your air conditioner. Components such as heating and cooling elements, circulation fans and blower motors, as well as the air filter and sound attenuators are all found in the air handler.

Many homeowners in the Virginia Beach area are turning to more efficient and less expensive methods to heat their homes. Airforce HVAC specializes in offering innovative solutions, including the installation of heat pumps. Utilizing technology that works in a similar fashion to AC units, heat pumps work efficiently to heat home. Refrigerant liquid is used to capture the outdoor air or below the ground temperature to affect change in the climate in your home. This method is far more efficient because the pump moves heat from one location to another providing a straightforward heating solution rather than using the combustion of an energy source to create heat.

Have you noticed that your allergies are acting up? Does your air conditioner appear to be straining? If you're experiencing issues with your air conditioner, the problem may be a clogged or dirty air filter. The experts at Airforce HVAC can help determine the problem and replace your old filter. Your AC requires a fully clean environment to operate efficiently. Dirt, debris, pollen and other pathogens in the air can contaminate a system and cause certain components to either freeze or malfunction.
