5 Ways to Increase Airflow to Your Upper Floors

Are you struggling to keep your upper floors comfortable? Proper airflow is essential for maintaining an even temperature throughout your living space. Here are five effective tips to keep in mind.

1. Properly Size Your HVAC System

One of the key factors in achieving proper airflow to your upper floors is having an HVAC system that is the right size for your home. A properly sized system not only helps to balance airflow but also reduces energy consumption and offers greater comfort for you and your family. HVAC companies specialize in calculating the correct system size to ensure that it can efficiently circulate air throughout the entire house.

2. Optimize Your Ductwork

Home heating companies can assess your existing ductwork and recommend improvements or modifications to help maximize airflow. This will also help improve the overall efficiency of your HVAC system and contribute to a more comfortable home environment.

3. Install a Zoning System

Another way to increase airflow to your upper floors is by installing a zoning system. According to air conditioning companies, a zoning system enables you to control the temperature in different areas of your home for more customized comfort.

4. Utilize Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs)

These systems work by exchanging stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air. ERVs are also energy-efficient, reducing the strain on your HVAC system and helping to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home.

5. Regularly Maintain Your HVAC System

Regularly scheduled maintenance, such as cleaning filters, checking for leaks and ensuring all components are working efficiently, helps keep your system running smoothly.

We had our AC go out on one of the hottest days of the year. We called as soon as they opened and they came out so quickly and offered us some loaner units to keep our babies and animals cool in the meantime. Matt was so helpful and fixed the problem quickly. He went above and beyond to help us and we will be using Stone Heating and Air to replace our unit when it’s time. They’ll be our first call in the future!

Shortly after 1 called for an appointment, Dave and Gino did a thorough inspection of my system and explained all of the areas that needed repair or replacement. They gave me short and long-term options and the benefits of both. HVAC is not something I know a lot about so I had appreciated their patience. Overall, it was a great experience! 5 STARS!!
