Bartlett Heating and Air Talks About Uneven Heating

Have you ever walked through your home and noticed that the air temperature is not quite the same in each room? This can be quite annoying for you and your family. When the difference is between your basement and your attic, that is normal because hot air rises and cold air sinks. Your basement is naturally going to be cooler and your attic will be warmer by nature. If you are noticing a big difference between rooms in your home on the same level though there might be an issue. There are a few causes to uneven heating for you to look into. The first thing we tend to do on accident is to cover the vents with furniture and other large objects. That will block the air flow and not allow it to enter the room it needs to be in so the temperature will be drastically different. You should also check your air filter. A dirty air filter will cause air to get distributed unevenly so changing it monthly will eliminate this issue. Another cause of uneven heating is a blockage or excess dirt in the ducts. You can battle this issue by having your ducts cleaned by a qualified tech like those at Bartlett Heating and Air. One last issue you can run into is your HVAC system being undersized which means it is too small to sufficiently heat or cool your home. In that case it would be a good idea to have a technician come out and size your home to install the correct equipment for you. Zoning your home may also help the issue of uneven heating.
