Are You Ready for Old Man Winter?

As we pass the autumnal equinox it reminds us to prepare for cooler temperatures coming just around the corner, especially as it pertains to maintaining the warm comfort of our homes for our families. Nobody wants to kick on the furnace and have it simply not work when we need it. As a homeowner good maintenance is a solid first line of defense against uncomfortable days or nights waiting for a repairman to arrive. 

Our skilled team of technicians at Freyaldenhoven Heating and Cooling can make sure that your system is in top working condition for the coming holidays and winter season, which is predicted by the Farmer’s Almanac to be a long and cold one. 

We stock a wide array of furnace parts for various systems to reduce wait times for service, and our maintenance contracts usually identify early warning signs of system troubles whether pertaining to heating or cooling. Be sure to call today to find out about all the options we offer. The Freyaldenhoven team is, as always, ready to help keep you and your family happy and warm this winter.Give us a call 501-329-2951.

Importance of Maintenance on your HVAC

      Heat and air systems are composed of complicated machinery that requires regular maintenance to prolong the life of the equipment. Changing filters regularly is your first line of defense, but just as changing oil is somewhat the bare minimum in vehicle maintenance, there is likewise much more to be done in an HVAC system maintenance schedule. The chemical cleaning of condenser and evaporator coils will pay rich dividends to the homeowner who performs this type of maintenance as needed or has it done via a service contract. 

     Checking the amperage draws of electrical parts can provide early insight into potentially disastrous and expensive repair work in the future, such as a compressor failure. If you don’t have a working knowledge of electronics or have a functioning multi-meter on hand it would be advisable to get a service contract. 

     At Freyaldenhoven we provide a wide array of service packages and parts/labor contracts for warrantable equipment (especially new equipment) that are both affordable and are guaranteed to save you time and money on future repairs or equipment replacement, mostly the ones you won’t need because we usually spot the problem before it even happens. Be smart, and be cool.  

     To find out all the benefits of our maintenance program, please give our office a call at 501-329-2951. We look forward to hearing from you.

What A "Cool" Job

“Most people hope for a job that gives them personal satisfaction beyond a paycheck. I know that’s the case for me working for Freyaldenhoven Heating and Cooling. There’s nothing more gratifying than knowing that the work I do here brings people comfort in their day to day lives. Whether at home or in the office, it’s good to have a comfortable environment. When I know a customer is too hot or too cold I think back to the times in my life when I was either without heat/air, or just waiting on the repairman, and what that felt like. We strive to keep good communication lines open with our customers regarding their repairs and new equipment installations so they can make plans accordingly. When necessary we take extraordinary steps to facilitate parts and equipment delivery. Many times the owners themselves will drive many miles to get jobs done. Everyone I work with strives to bring a maximum value to the work we perform. When I go home each night my toddler asks me what I did at work, and I tell him I helped people to be cool. That’s a good feeling.”

Wow, what a beautiful day we are having! Sunny and 75 degrees outside has definitely got everyone thinking about getting out of the house and enjoying it while it lasts. We all know it won't stay for long. These unbelievably beautiful days will all too soon be replaced with sweltering humidity laced inferno's, filled with the incessant humming of you and all of your neighbor's air conditioners - toiling away. Sorry I had to remind you, but are you ready? 

The mild winter we experienced this year sure gave everyone a break on winter utility bills, and probably kept our technicians from visiting a few of your homes as well. We've missed you guys, but we definitely haven't forgotten you. We have spent the many mild breaks this winter preparing ourselves to "wow" you with customer service this summer! Our technicians and installers have spent many hours in training to keep abreast of all the latest technology and products which will help you keep you and your family more comfortable while spending less money this year for utilities. With our vans stocked and tool bags ready, our team of professionals are excited to see you. 

Are you ready? Better yet, is your air conditioner ready? I know we are, so come on summer, show us what you've got. We are ready and we can handle it. So don't wait, now is the time to call us to make sure you and your air conditioner can handle summer this year. Like I said, we've missed you guys!
