We can run gas lines to outdoor BBQ grills, dryers, ranges and unit heaters.
Dry air can have unhealthy and damaging effects in the home. Many viruses thrive in low humidity, which can increase the likelihood of colds, flu, and other upper respiratory illnesses. Dry air can also aggravate asthma and allergy symptoms. Too low humidity levels can also cause permanent damage to your home, including split or cracked wood floors or trim. Keeping your home’s humidity level at 30% – 45% can help reduce the negative effects of dry air. An Aprilaire Whole Home Humidifier controls the amount of humidity in the air.
An air conditioning system controls temperature, but is not designed to control humidity. Some humidity may be removed during the cooling process, but during spring and fall, when your air conditioner isn’t running, the air in your home can feel damp and uncomfortable. An Aprilaire Whole Home Dehumidifier, installed as part of your home’s heating and cooling system, efficiently balances the humidity levels in your home for ultimate comfort.
Specifically designed to work with your central heating and air conditioning system, ultraviolet or UV lamps provide a whole-home reduction of airborne pollutants through the natural power of ultraviolet (UVC) light. These pollutants may include mold, bacteria, allergens, and odors. The ultraviolet energy kills almost all disease-causing organisms in the air as it passes by the powerful bulbs.
Trapped air becomes stale, reducing air quality and causing possible health problems for you and your family. A compact, powered air exchanger moves stale, contaminated air out of the house, at the same time bringing in fresh air from the outside to rejuvenate the air in your home. Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV) are recommended over Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERV) in Northern climate such as ours for its ability to remove excess moisture than can damage windows and doors. Contact the indoor air quality experts at Dependable Heating and Cooling if you’ve noticed humid conditions or damage from moisture to discuss the benefits on an HRV.
Yes, the air we breathe in our homes could be up to 100 times more polluted than outside air. Indoor air pollutants include pollen, dust, pet hair, dander, dust mites, mold spores, bacteria, and virus. Indoor air quality is one of the top five environmental risks to public health today according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). A standard 1” disposable furnace filter traps only 5% – 15% of airborne particulates.
Whole Home Air Cleaners successfully remove up to 99% of small, allergy-causing particulates, giving you the ability to “breathe easy.” Count on Dependable Heating and Cooling and Aprilaire to help make your home environment healthier and cleaner.
It depends on the system. We suggest you check filters every 30 days, and replace them when they show signs of dirt or dust. A lot of high efficiency filters say they last up to 90 days; this does not mean they will last the full 90 days. Most will only go 30 days before they start to restrict air flow.
When we search for energy efficiency, we want to compare the overall energy consumption to heat our homes. This not only includes the gas efficiency rating, but how much electricity is used to move the air through our homes. We offer a variety of furnaces that have 80-97% efficiency rating.
A quality furnace should be efficient with both electric and gas use. Not only should the furnace keep a home warm and comfortable, they should provide dependable performance year after year, and not require frequent service.
Just a quick note to thank you for your great service. Our job at Harriet Shoreview was a small one, but you took it on without a second thought. I really appreciate it. Tim called back promptly when I sent an email. Cory and Shane did a great job of venting our bathroom fan through the roof. They were prompt, professional, and efficient. I’ll keep your name as my go-to for HVAC and pass it on to others in need of your services.
“Very nice young gentleman. Polite, professional. Dustin shows he loves his job.”
“I would like to say thank you very much. we are very impressed by the quality of work you did for us. we got multiple quotes from other companies and none of them offered the services you did for us and one even told us we would need to get a plumber and a handyman to run heat to one of our rooms in the basement and to switch out the gas line.
We will recommend your company to anyone in the area who needs work done on their HVAC!”
“Awesome job Cory for fixing the gas leak & double checking everything.”
“Shane is a very pleasant, kind & professional young man. Very good at his job.”
“I want to thank you for the excellent job that your company did on my chimney repair. Cory & Shane were very efficient at putting the chimney liner in on my three-story house and installing the cap. They did a good job of cleaning up a big mess. I appreciate such good service. Thank you!”
“Tim- Thank you so much for your swift and excellent service. Thank you, Melissa & the crew.”
“Thank you for all your help when part of the furnace filter fell down into the furnace. Your instructions and patience (especially waiting while I looked for tools) on how to do this were terrific. I didn’t know you had even called back before you left work, to check that all was okay, as I wasn’t home until later that evening-because I had to leave the house again as soon as the furnace was working. Thank you very much!”
“Job well done Cory!”
“Dustin, You made a difference in our life that I will forever remember & share with family & friends.”
“Great job Cory on our RTU’s”
“Cory & Shane did an outstanding job of replacing the chimney liner in our 86-year-old house. They had to work above 3 stories and dig out the old liner, which was no easy task. (it was stuck) They remained very pleasant & professional when they could have been very frustrated. They also installed a new air conditioner into a 2nd story window. I highly recommend them.”
“Thanks for coming out so late and being so courteous to figure out the problem on my furnace.”
“Shane was very professional. Job well done & I’d have him back.”
“They worked with me to fit my schedule, took my calls in off hours and even saved me a service call by telling me what I can do to correct a problem. I would definitely recommend this company to my friends & family. I’m a single woman who knows nothing about heating & cooling systems. Often times I feel companies rip me off or take advantage, but not these guys.”
“Job well done Shane on our install! Wife is very happy for the very clean areas afterwards.”
“Thanks for getting out so quickly & fixing our furnace on this cold day.”
“A note of appreciation to your employee Cory for his thorough, careful work on my ac & furnace systems. He is also very friendly and careful about the house. Please congratulate him!”
“Thanks Eric, you were very professional.”
“I want to thank everyone at Dependable for your ability to work with me yesterday and get a new furnace installed. The installers, Shane & Jim worked hard & were very friendly & professional.”
“Great job & good care by Dustin on my heating & AC needs. He’s a great tech.”
“Great job Cory! Thanks for catching the dirty condenser the other people didn’t.”
“Great job Dustin! I would highly recommend you.”
“Thank you so much for the great job you did installing our furnace, air conditioner and humidifier on 8/18/16. Thank you for being so careful and watching the Sammi, our Brittany Spaniel, did not get out while you worked. We appreciate that so much. Thank you for the neat job and the clean work space that you left. Your professional service and courtesy was outstanding.”
“Dustin was very pleasant, nice. He went out of his way, very personable.”
“Dustin, Thanks for helping me out. You’re the best!”
“I had a service call on my furnace this am. I’m corresponding with you to give out a few compliments. I appreciated the prompt reply on my message I left on voicemail last evening. I appreciated the professionalism displayed by your technician Cory B. He was very friendly/considerate in removing his shoes upon entering my home and thorough in his analysis of my problem. I work retail so I understand the definition of good service. The service I received this morning from Dependable was what I would classify as EXCELLENT service!”
“Great job Dustin.”
“Great job Cory! You are very kind, courteous and know your job.”
