When the holidays arrive, a comfortable home is the ultimate gift for your family and guests. As the North Shore and Seacoast’s trusted home comfort specialists, Kearney HVAC delivers tailored solutions, unmatched expertise, and top-quality products to help your home stay warm and efficient all winter long. From simple DIY tips to high-efficiency upgrades, here’s how you can boost comfort and peace of mind throughout the holidays and beyond.
Clean Your Air Filters
Clean filters act as your home’s first line of defense against stuffy air and high energy bills. Whether you have a furnace or a heat pump, we recommend cleaning or replacing your air filters every 1–3 months, especially during heavy winter use. Keeping your filters fresh ensures better comfort, cleaner indoor air, and helps prevent unexpected system breakdowns, giving you one less thing to worry about this holiday season.
Upgrade to a Smart Thermostat
Take the guesswork out of home comfort by switching to a smart thermostat. Unlike basic models, smart thermostats automatically adjust your heating schedule, and many let you control the temperature from anywhere with your device. Smart thermostats help optimize your energy usage and can even remind you when it’s time to change filters.
Consider a High-Efficiency Mini Split Heat Pump
Mini split heat pumps offer a flexible, efficient way to heat individual rooms or additions. Mitsubishi Electric Heating & Air Conditioning Systems work great in New England winters, providing reliable warmth even in below-freezing temps. They’re quiet, help improve indoor air quality, and keep energy bills in check. Kearney HVAC is a Mitsubishi Electric Diamond Elite Contractor, meaning you get expert guidance on system selection, precision installation, and access to extended product warranties.
Replace Your Older Heating System
If your furnace is more than 15 years old, struggles to keep you comfortable, or needs frequent repairs, this winter may be the perfect time to upgrade. New high-efficiency furnaces, central heat pumps, and dual fuel systems deliver warmer air, quieter operation, and more consistent heating, all while using less energy. With expert sizing and professional installation from Kearney, you’ll enjoy lower bills, fewer breakdowns, and a more comfortable home for years to come.
Don’t Forget Preventive Maintenance!
The best way to avoid costly repairs and keep your home cozy? Sign up for a preventive maintenance agreement. Kearney’s maintenance plans include priority scheduling, annual checkups, and no-surprise discounts, so your system runs better, lasts longer, and you enjoy peace of mind all season.
