A Big Thank You to Mr. & Mrs. T of West Chester

Phil and I are extremely satisfied with our new air conditioner unit.  It is amazing how more efficient it is than our previous one.

It was a real pleasure working with you and we appreciate all your help.

We also want to add how impressed we are with the team that installed the unit here.  John, Bill and Joel were courteous, professional and competent.  As representatives of Brandywine Valley Heating And Air Conditioning, they exceeded our expectations.

It was truly a pleasure to do business with you and a company that exemplifies such high standards.

We look forward to continuing our association with Brandywine Valley Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc.

Thank you,
Mr. & Mrs. T 

Be Green, Save Green: PECO Smart A/C Saver program starting June 1st

The 2014 PECO Smart A/C Saver season starts on June 1st. If you've enrolled in the program, PECO will have installed a switch on the outside of your home near the central air conditioning unit to allow them to cycle your air conditioning during conservation events. When regional energy demand is high, this switch will receive a radio signal that will put your A/C compressor into a "conservation mode."

 What does this mean for the air inside your home? In conservation mode, your compressor will operate 15 minutes of each half hour during a conservation event, which can last for four hours or more.
Concerned about your family's comfort level? During the entire conservation event, your A/C fan will run normally, circulating air throughout your home. A conservation event will only occur on weekdays between noon and 8 p.m.

Ready for the best part? Participating in the PECO Smart A/C Saver program will earn you a $20 bill credit each month during the summer - that's a total of $80 for the summer cooling months of June through September.

What would you do with an extra $80 and a clean energy conscience?

Tech Tip of the Week

With more snow likely on its way here is a good bit of advice. Snow and ice accumulations can obstruct your heater intake and exhaust pipes. If they do obstruct them it can prevent your unit from operating. Be sure to check your intake or exhaust pipes for snow or ice. If your pipes are clogged gently remove the snow or ice from the opening. If you have any questions feel free to call us at 610-692-3900 

Are you happy with your PECO bill?

Tech Tip of the Week

A condensation pump needs routine maintenance done to work properly. The pump collects excess water created by your AC, heater, or humidifier. It then pumps it outside or to a nearby drain. Overtime if left uncleaned if will begin to build up scum on the bottom and can eventually clog the pump. A lot of the newer pumps are equipped with a safety switch, which means if the pump fails your system will stop working. If you do not have a safety switch the system will continue to run and you could have water damage. Cleaning condensate pumps is part of the normal maintenance routine here at Brandywine Valley. To schedule a maintenance call us at 610-692-3900 or email us at bvservice@bvhvac.com
