Our Expertise in Servicing Warren Homes

We have specialized experience serving Warren, and we know the area and the home types inside out. Our technicians take great pride in their work, and we have built a reputation for excellence around Warren. 

When looking for an HVAC company, Warren homeowners must keep in mind some of the following factors that apply directly to their town. A majority of homes in Warren are single-story homes with siding (also called ranch style), so we have included how that will affect HVAC systems below, followed by some notes on heating and cooling costs in addition to air quality. 

Ranch-style homes with siding as seen most prominently in the southern part of Warren are more energy efficient than their brick counterparts because the siding (most commonly vinyl siding in Warren) has better insulative properties, keeping the extreme temperatures out and room temperature in. The air leakage is low in these homes, but this increases the need for high-quality ventilation systems. Our team of experts can help ensure your home is running efficiently all year long.

Siding Material Affects Insulation and Energy Efficiency

The insulation quality of the home heavily depends on the type and quality of siding on the home. Insulated vinyl siding, wood fiber siding, and fiber cement siding with insulative backing are generally the best for home insulation. Most of the homes in Warren have insulated vinyl siding.  If the home is smaller, the reduced surface area of the home can lead to less heat exchange, which will allow the home to maintain a stable indoor temperature with less energy expended for the HVAC system. 

If you’d like a full check of your home insulation properties, reach out for our full AC maintenance package.

Well Insulated Siding Material Will Lower the HVAC System Load

Many smaller homes, like those on Warren’s south side, with better insulated siding material such as wood fiber or insulated vinyl will allow them to use a smaller HVAC system, rendering their home more energy efficient and less costly to heat and cool, even with the cold Michigan winters. But, if the HVAC system is too large for the home, the HVAC system will cycle more often, leading to increased wear and inefficient operation. 

Warren residents choose us for AC installation due to our expertise in properly sizing systems for the home given factors such as square footage and insulation materials.

Air Leakage Rates Must Be Balanced with Ventilation Considerations

While it is important that your exterior material properly stop air from leaking out of the house in order to maintain a consistent indoor temperature and humidity, in some cases, it can be beneficial to increase air leakage. In smaller homes that have been tightly sealed, mechanical ventilation may be required to ensure the air inside the home remains high quality. If there is too little ventilation, air quality in the home is massively affected. We see this commonly on the southwestern side of Warren. 

To ensure your home is properly ventilated, we recommend a full air quality check.

Improper Siding Installation Will Cause Thermal Bridging and Moisture Management Issues

If the siding is installed without proper attention paid to where heat is conducted through the building envelope (also known as thermal bridging), then the home may experience energy efficiency issues. This is particularly relevant for older homes on Warren’s south side. Modern siding materials do a great job of mitigating this risk, but for older homes with original siding, it is still a concern. Also, moisture intrusion could be caused if the siding does not properly deal with the heat. 

We ensure heat is being properly conducted through the building envelope in all of our heating maintenance calls.

Heating Costs are Less Expensive than the Michigan Average 

Warren, MI has a more humid climate than other areas of Michigan due to the proximity to Lake St Clair. More humid air feels warmer, leading to a lower heating cost on average than Michigan as a whole as people do not turn their thermostats up as high. 

Many choose to have a smart thermostat system installed to lower their heating costs further. 

Cooling Costs are More Expensive than the Michigan Average

Inversely, Warren, MI residents pay more on average to cool their home in the summer than the average Michigan household. Due to the humidity in the summer, HVAC systems must work overtime to keep homes cool. Humidity naturally makes air feel warmer, so residents are turning their thermostats down more, leading to higher costs. 

This is why many of our customers choose to have an energy-efficient air conditioning system installed.

Warren Has a Lower Air Quality Index than the Michigan & USA Average

As of the last available data reading, Warren’s air quality is three points worse than the Michigan & USA average. While you cannot control the outside air, you can take steps to improve air quality inside of your home by ensuring your HVAC system is properly maintained. Many older homes also contain lower air quality.
