HEATING & COOLING UPGRADES
If your home’s heating and cooling system is broken or not working right, it can not only make your home uncomfortable and unhealthy, but it can also waste energy and raise your monthly utility bills.
Heating and cooling repair and replacement are just two of the services provided at no cost to eligible homeowners and renters throughout the state of Maryland through CAC’s weatherization assistance programs.
In a worst-case scenario, you live in a home with a heating or cooling system that has stopped working altogether and the repairs are too expensive to pay for. This is a problem that needs to be fixed right away.
But much more common in Maryland households is having a furnace, boiler, or central AC that runs, but doesn’t run well. Many families don’t realize how much energy (and money) their home is wasting through old or inefficient HVAC equipment, or that a broken combustion fuel heating system can create the risk of a dangerous carbon monoxide leak.
If you’re experiencing any of the above, you can likely take advantage of our no-cost HVAC services. This can range from a system tune-up to repairs or even replacing your current system with a new furnace, boiler, central air conditioner, electric heat pump or mini-split, or window AC units. New equipment will be much more energy efficient and able to keep your home comfortable and energy costs affordable.
When people think of home weatherization, they often think of installing door sweeps or sealing air leaks around windows. But weatherization assistance from CAC is much more. Included in our no-cost services are heating and cooling services, water heater upgrades, insulation and air sealing, and more. These home upgrades often work together to make your home more comfortable, healthy, and affordable to run. And best of all, you can receive this work at no cost.
Your heating and cooling system doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Your home’s insulation and air sealing, in particular, has a big effect on the ability of your heating and cooling system to keep you and your family comfortable and energy bills low. That’s why CAC’s weatherization services often include several upgrades, all of which work together. When these services are combined, you see more benefits, and create a healthier, safer, and more comfortable home.
