To stay warm, we do everything from investing in wearable blankets to buying enough firewood to build a log cabin. What’s the most detrimental thing we do to keep warm? Up your heater to temperatures that will break your bank.

Your heat pump will often go into a defrost cycle on cold mornings. It will make loud noises and belch steam. Not to worry, your system is melting the ice off of the outside coil. Most systems are set up to defrost automatically.
Is your heat pump doing this…?

Trade in Used HVAC Equipment and Apply Towards a New System
Ocean State is pleased to be participating in Carrier’s 2011 HVAC Trade In Promotion program where we are offering customers credit towards a new, high-efficient Carrier HVAC system for trading in your old system. Times are tight and in an effort to help our customers save money while at the same time promote a greener environment, Ocean State has partnered with CE Florida to roll out this promotion that started on January 1, 2011 and runs through February 28, 2011.
When customers trade in their older, less efficient HVAC systems, Ocean State in conjunction with Carrier is offering an immediate trade-in credit of up to $800 to be used towards a new, high efficiency Carrier System. In addition, Carrier will recycle your old system at one of their 17 locations throughout Florida and donate a tree to be planted by American Forests® for every system recycled.
Below are details of the program:
- The trade in promotion runs from January 1, 2011 through February 28, 2011. Installations must be completed by March 15, 2011 and claims must be submitted by March 28, 2011.
- Receive up to $800 credit for all qualifying Carrier systems with a 5-Star Warranty. All other qualifying Carrier systems are eligible for a max of $500 trade-in value.
- Qualifying systems and corresponding trade-in amounts can be found HERE.
- All trade in amounts are provided to the homeowner at time of purchase. Carrier Dealers should show the trade in amount as a reduction to the sales price on the homeowners contract.
- An Official Claim Form must be submitted along with a copy of the sales contract.
- Ocean State will credit the dealer 50% of the qualifying trade in value when the proper claim form has been submitted.
- Dealers can bring the old system to any Ocean State (or Carrier?) location and we will recycle and dispose of the system in proper fashion. For each old system dropped off, CE Florida will donate a tree through American Forest®. The more systems donated, the more we can help the environment
The use of high performance HVAC equipment can result in considerable energy, emissions, and cost savings of up to 10%-40%. That’s why Ocean State wants to make this option more affordable to you by helping you recover any remaining value from your existing HVAC system to help offset the cost of a new, higher efficiency purchase. Contact us today for more details.

If you live in the Jacksonville area and are in need of air conditioning or furnace repairs, remember that choosing a good contractor to work on the central air conditioner or furnace in your home is just as important as the equipment you use. Because improperly repaired HVAC systems can be dangerous to your house and more importantly your family, this sort of service should be left up to a trained professional. Proper maintenance of air conditioning and heating units is necessary for the equipment to operate safely, reliably, and at maximum efficiency.
However, as any Jacksonville homeowner can attest choosing a qualified HVAC contractor can be a daunting challenge. There are many factors that go into selecting the right air conditioning and heating repair person – and remember that finding the lowest price should not be your main criteria for selection. Lower bids may be a sign of a company not including all “hidden costs” and trying to offload outdated or unreliable equipment. Better contractors may charge more, but they probably offer greater value.
Below are a few additional tips for Jacksonville residents to remember when selecting an heating and air conditioning repair person:
- Ask friends and relatives who live in the Jacksonville area to give you recommendations. Talking to people that you know and trust who have had any recent maintenance or installations done by an HVAC company is a great way to obtain a referral.
- Look for Jacksonville HVAC contractors whose technicians are certified by North American Technician Excellence (NATE) and/or partnered with ENERGY STAR.
- A qualified estimator will do a survey of your current home and its equipment and base its pricing on a cooling-load calculation for air conditioning (and a heat-load for furnaces). Many existing furnaces aren’t properly sized and good contractors will ensure the equipment you are using meets the exact needs of your home’s load requirements.
- Steer clear of air conditioning repair services that offer you an estimate over the phone without ever looking at the job to be done. A good company will provide a written bid outlining the work to be done, including labor costs.
- Choose a Jacksonville air conditioning repair service that is prompt, courteous, and professional. Remember that the way a company treats you in the beginning is a direct reflection of how they will handle you going forward should other unit repair issues arise.

If you’re not already aware, the federal government instituted the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 which provides a tax credit to help offset the costs of making energy efficiency improvements to your home – including energy-efficient windows, insulation, doors, roofs, and heating and cooling equipment. If you install any of these qualifying energy efficiencies in your existing home you could be eligible to receive a tax credit for 30% of the cost (up to $1,500).
However, it is important to note that this program expires on December 31, 2010. Therefore, to take advantage of this program and determine which central air conditioning units are eligible for tax credit, call an accredited Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Contractor. As part of the verification process, you will need to review the Manufacturer Certification Statement for the equipment you plan to purchase. Again, a trusted HVAC contractor will not only walk you through the process, they can help you complete the required Form 5695 and submit all necessary documentation required.
One of the many benefits of this program is that that unlike deductions, tax credits are subtracted directly from the total amount you owe on your personal income taxes. Better yet, your savings go far beyond a one-time tax credit. With a newer, energy efficient central air conditioning unit, you’ll continue saving every month with reduced monthly cooling and heating bills. For more information on this program, contact your HVAC dealer today because you only have a few more weeks before this tax credit expires.
