Meet Matt, Your Local HVAC Pro @ Nevada Residential Services. Matt is a seasoned HVAC technician working our relatively small, yet well-respected local Air Conditioning company in Las Vegas. With over eight years of experience, he’s the guy homeowners call when their furnace won’t start, their heat pump is acting up, or their thermostat is more confused than they are.

Your current system, being over a decade old? - Probably has an AFUE of around 80%. That means 20% of the energy goes up the flue as wasted heat. Upgrading could save you 15-20% on heating bills, which is big. Especially when you think about the rising cost of natural gas. Upgrading to a high-efficiency furnace is a fantastic move, especially here in Las Vegas.

Winter in Las Vegas might not bring snowstorms or freezing days like other parts of the country, but our desert climate can still pack a punch at night. If your HVAC system isn’t ready to handle those nighttime dips below freezing, you might find yourself feeling chilly when you shouldn’t. A little proactive maintenance can go a long way toward keeping your system running smoothly and efficiently.

If you’re like most folks in Las Vegas, you probably aren’t thinking too much about heating until those chilly desert nights hit, right? But here’s the thing: your heating system plays a big role in your home’s energy efficiency, comfort, and even its carbon footprint. Electric heat pumps are one of the most efficient ways to heat (and cool!) your home.

Winter is knoking in the doors, its time for cozy sweaters, hot chocolate, and... sky-high heating bills if your heating system isn’t ready for the cold. Frozen pipes, heaters on strike, clogged filters and ductworks and more. As an HVAC tech who’s seen more "frozen pipes and frost-covered ducts" than I care to count, I can tell you that a little prep now can save you from big headaches later.
