Winter heating myths can lead to cold rooms, wasted energy, and higher bills. 

Kearney HVAC knows what it takes to keep New England homes comfortable and energy efficient, no matter how harsh the winter is.

Myth 1: Turning Up the Thermostat Heats Your Home Faster Cranking the thermostat doesn’t speed up heating; it just runs longer and wastes energy. Kearney Solution: Set your thermostat to a comfortable temperature, and keep it there. As the cold weather sets in, some older homes or systems have a hard time catching up when the settings are changed often. Ask our team about smart thermostats for better control and more savings. Myth 2: Closing Vents in Unused Rooms Saves Money Blocking vents increases system pressure and actually reduces efficiency. Kearney Solution: Keep vents open and consider mini split heat pumps for targeted comfort. Myth 3: Ceiling Fans Are Useless in Winter Ceiling fans help circulate warm air when set to reverse, making rooms feel more comfortable. Kearney Solution: Flip the switch and let fans gently push warm air down. Myth 4: Space Heaters Are Cheaper Than Central Heating Space heaters only heat small areas and can quickly drive up your energy bills. Kearney Solution: We offer a wide variety of central heating options and can help optimize your system for safe, effective warmth throughout your home. Myth 5: Heat Pumps Don’t Provide Enough Heat for New England Homes Cold-weather heat pumps are designed to keep your home comfortable, even in below-freezing temperatures. Kearney Solution: We offer a wide selection of industry-best heat pumps, like Mitsubishi Electric Heating & Air Conditioning Systems. We can even help you with dual fuel heating, so you’re prepared for anything.
