Low cost DIY fixes to save your sanity this winter

Brian Nagle 10:20 AM September 5, 2018 

Winter is coming, make sure you change the filters on your HVAC systems at the furnace and the returns.Indoor air is more toxic than exterior air, so you are breathing in all the airborne particles. Once the temperature drops below 30 degrees, humidity drops as well. Supplemental Humidity must be added through humidifiers or your respiratory nasal immune system shuts down; (Colds, Flu, Bronchitis, Walking Pneumonia and other respiratory Challenges all can result). Clean air and proper humidity levels are a winter must. For a Professional assessment contact me at your 1st opportunity. www.truemech.com

Large Mistakes Compounded

August 6, 2018    Brian Nagle            Putting off Things until the last minute is rarely a great strategy, especially on a 100 degree day. 
This morning, with warm temperatures climbing towards a 100 degrees here on Long Island, a few thoughts. 
Our phones are ringing off the hook with homeowners who didn’t believe they needed a service contract, and now their AC doesn’t work. We want more service business, but we want the right service business.
If you own a home with an air conditioning system more than 20 years old or older, you likely know how many headaches it can cause by breaking or needing constant repairs. The question is whether or not you should continue to have the unit repaired and serviced, or whether it would make more sense to have it replaced altogether. 
The rational thought process is; don’t want to waste money by getting a new HVAC unit before you need one, but at the same time you won’t want to continue spending money every time a new problem (or the same one) arises. Also keep in mind, a unit that old is a much lower efficiency energy guzzler compared with newer, more efficient models that could potentially use a fraction of the power to provide better cooling performance. 
Spending a little bit of extra money now may mean you won’t have to worry about excessive repairs in the future, plus you’ll likely see a massive reduction in your monthly energy costs. A safe number to think about replacing the system is 13-15 years. If your AC system is 13 years or more and has needed repair, it’s a good time to replace it so you can avoid costly repairs and start over with a brand new, energy star rated energy reducing unit. 
Your decision should factor in how many years you will be in the house, and what your energy bills are today. There are the darlings of the industry available today, variable speed inverter condensers, that use 30-50% less electric than standard existing central air conditioners. These units will be the industry standard within the next 5 years. If your system uses R22 Freon, as of December 31, 2019, only synthetic Freon will be available in the United States.  If you need a major repair, such as the compressor, blower motor or condenser coils, replacing it, makes much more sense than repairing it. Newer units can significantly reduce monthly costs and can have over 25 SEER (seasonal energy efficiency ratio) ratings. Being concerned about the cost is understandable, but most HVAC companies, including True Mechanical Corp, offer competitive financing options for those who qualify. You never know, the money you save each month may be greater than your monthly financing payment. When having a new HVAC unit installed, it is important to have an experienced professional do the job because over or under-sized units lead to premature failure, poor humidity control and inconsistent cooling and heating performance.

Top 3 ways to Save On Electric This Summer

3 Ways to Save On Electric This Summer.

Brian Nagle True Mechanical Corp. www.truemech.com Monday June 11th, 1:50PM 

Top 3 Ways to Save on Electric this summer. 

1) Change your light bulbs

Traditional light bulbs use an excessive amount of electricity and must be replaced more often than their energy efficient alternatives. Halogen incandescent bulbs, compact fluorescent lights (CFLs), and light-emitting diode bulbs (LEDs) use anywhere from 25-80% less electricity and last three to 25 times longer than traditional bulbs.

Although energy efficient bulbs are more expensive off the shelf, their efficient energy use and longer useful lives mean that they cost less in the long run. These new bulbs are the clear winners in terms of their environmental and financial benefits.

2). Install a programmable or smart thermostat

A programmable thermostat can be set to automatically turn off or reduce heating and cooling during the times when you are asleep or away. When you install a programmable thermostat, you eliminate wasteful energy use from heating and cooling without upgrading your HVAC system.

On average, a programmable thermostat can save you $180 per year. Programmable thermostats come in different models that can be set to fit your weekly schedule. Additional features of programmable thermostats can include indicators for when to replace air filters or HVAC system problems, which also improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling system.

3). Upgrade your Air Conditioning system

When you need more than a programmable Thermostat, think replacement of your air conditioning system..

Upgrading to a ENERGY STAR certifiied system, can save you up to 50% on your summer electric usage. Energy star rated systems in our area start at 16 seer and get more efficent from there.

New offerings using upgraded technology now available in the HVAC industry. These new products can reduce your HVAC utility bills by up to 50%.  Several manufacturers are keeping America 1st with substantial infrastructure investments across America. Daikin has just completed building the largest HVAC facility in America. just outside of Houston, employing over 5,000 Americans, with a zero net energy footprint.  Rheem, Amana, Lennox, all have manufacturing facilities in the USA.
Why replace or install new? With savings of up to 50%, you also get better warranties, lower cost operation and faster returns on your investment.  Good guidelines to look at;  You have single stage equipment 14 Seer or lower, or your current equipment is more than 10 years old. If you are on Long Island, call for a free consultation 631-563-1298. In less than 60 minutes, we can show you options generating real savings.
Here are some manufacturers videos showing how the industry has embraced technology improvements and innovations.

Its almost June and Time to be Pragmatic.

Brian Nagle      True Mechanical Corp.      11:10AM    May 25th, 2018

Top 5 Reasons To be Pragmatic about Cooling Your Home.
1)Your Equipment is 10 years or older Today’s high efficiency equipment is incredibly energy efficient, reducing electric use 35-55% over existing models.
2) You call for repairs more than once a season. Your cooling system has become less efficient and heading for replacement.
3) Your energy use is going up.   Your cooling system is trending down in efficiency and costing you more on a daily basis. Replacement systems start saving from the very 1st day.
4) Some rooms in your home are too hot or too cold. The age of your equipment, ductwork and frequency of repairs all contribute to decreasing efficiency of your current system.
5) Humidity issues in your home. Properly sizing equipment, even with a manual J, when you have a single stage system, is engineered for an average set of temperature and humidity characteristics. Today’s new inverter variable speed equipment optimizes humidity removal across a much broader spectrum and can keep a home set within a single degree all summer long. Top Contractors can discuss the equipment options and know how to properly install these systems.

Top 3 Reasons to Change Your Ductwork when you replace your HVAC Mechanical System
Old Ductwork
The ductwork in most homes lasts between 15-20 years before significant leaks or air gaps occur.
Poor performance of the Existing System
Your system is getting older, tired, and with more gaps in the ductwork, diminishing performance. You might see increasing utility use month after month, resulting in higher utility bills. An HVAC professional can run a test to find any problems. If the leaks are small enough, you can have your ductwork sealed to save energy. Otherwise, you should have it replaced to keep your power bills affordable. If your ductwork is 10-15 years old, it may be an R4 insulation covering. In our area today’s standard’s are R8 in non-conditioned space (attic or crawl space)
Poor Indoor Air Quality IAQ
Leaky ducts suck in dust, pollen, and other pollutants from the environment and circulate them in the entire house. These allergens can cause several health problems. Moisture in ductwork can grow into mold, or leak water potentially causing further damage to your house. 

True Mechanical Corp can help you with new installations, replacements and servicing of both your systems and ductwork.

Two Amazing Game Changing Weeks

Brian Nagle HVAC Blog 9:45AM May 1, 2018


The past two weeks have been absolutely amazing.

Last week, I was in Washington DC to accept Rheem Manufacturing's top Pro Partner Award as one of Rheem's top 20 businesses from across the United States. Rheem has been a leader of new technology in our industry for almost 100 years.  Rheem today is the only manufacturer in the world that produces heating, cooling, water heating , pool/spa heating and commercial refrigeration products, and is the largest manufacturer of water heating products in North America. This was an amazing two days with the Rheem management team and the top 20 US businesses.

Two weeks ago I had the privilege of attending a Daikin meeting in Texas. Daikin has built an amazing plant in the US. They have no plants in Mexico. Daikin has introduced amazing technology lowering energy use and providing significant upgrades in comfort and indoor air quality, two terms you should be hearing frequently. By the end of 2019, Daikin will have close to 5000 employees at the Daikin Texas Technology Park, and within 3-5 years, another 12000 indirect area jobs will be created. Many of the Daikin equipment options come with 12 year warranties. This Technology Park is amazing in its scope and the commitment Daikin has made in the United States. The plant is a 4.3 Billion dollar investment, a 1/2 mile long, over 2 miles around, has over 315 loading bay doors, can produce over 15,000 pieces of equipment a day, and for the environment, this building is a zero net energy building. The entire industry is now technology driven, new regulations having a big part of that.
