DON’T BE LEFT WITH A COLD Because today’s home are nearly air-tight, it’s important to have a superior filtration system.
UV lights are affordable and can be installed in new or current HVAC systems.
Your current or new HVAC system can help reduce bacteria in the air and the allergens that grow inside your HVAC system. By using UV lamps, particles and germs are destroyed and prevented from being recirculated to the air in your home. An Ultra-violet light can now be installed
BREATHE CLEAN The air inside your home might be the most polluted air you breathe all day. EPA studies show that even in the smoggiest cities, the air inside most Right At Home is usually at least ten times more polluted than the air outside. Reasons include Radon and carbon dioxide, as well as chemicals like formaldehyde used in making modern carpeting, drapery, and household cleaners. Add to this common airborne pollutants such as pollen,
viruses, dust and dust mites and damp areas where standing water can breed mold, mildew and other microbes. These can lead to eye irritation, sinus congestion, sneezing, runny nose, stuffiness, colds, flu, headaches, dizziness, outbreaks of allergies and asthma, sore throats, and various other respiratory ailments. So serious and prevalent is this issue
in most existing central HVAC systems and is a must for new system installation. This is definitely NOT a DIY project due the danger to electrical shock. For cleaner air, trust an Ultraviolet Treatment System from Rheem.

TIP Use an oil with a neutral taste, such as corn oil, that won’t interfere with the natural flavors of your favorite foods and ingredients. Additionally, corn oil’s high smoke point makes it perfect for a variety of cooking styles, including stir-frying, sautéing, grilling and even baking. See recipes on pages 10-11.

TIME FOR A NEW FURNACE?
Investing in a furnace with better technology and efficiency will save you hundreds of dollars every year.

hen a furnace loses or wastes heat, it requires more energy to keep your home warm. Some furnaces lose heat through the walls of the furnace cabinet. Energy-efficient furnaces like the Rheem full line of state-of-the-art models significantly reduce this loss with a blanket of insulation that lines the inside of the cabinet walls. Heating is the largest energy expense in most homes, accounting for 35-50 percent of annual energy bills in colder parts of the country, according to the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy. When a gas furnace is not in operation,

most send a steady, wasteful draft of warm household air up the venting system and out the roof. Some newer furnaces, offered by Rheem feature an blower that keeps warm air in the ducts, meaning you don’t get that initial blast of cold air when your system cycles back on. Pilot lights also can be wasteful. A furnace with an electronic eliminates the need for a constantly burning pilot. Newer furnaces with electronic ignition systems have an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) of 94 percent or higher and can run up to 15 percent more efficiently than standard models. The most efficient furnaces tap the energy of the hot vent gases – which
can reach temperatures of 500 degrees Fahrenheit, and more. A high-efficiency furnace generally has a higher price tag, but it can make up the difference by reducing operating costs over the long run. And with today’s consumer interest in efficiency, such equipment enhances the bottom line of your home.

Regular maintenance of your heating and cooling system is generally about $100 that can save you thousands on the long run.
CATCH PROBLEMS EARLY You won’t think about going two or three years without having maintenance on your car. Well, your HVAC system is a mechanical system that also needs regular attention.
Semi-Annual Maintenance Rheem HVAC contractors offer important seasonal HVAC tune-ups. In southern states it may be another check of your A/C system, while in the north, a furnace inspection is a must before a long, cold winter. There are many different types of heating
and cooling systems and each one has different needs. However, there are some basic inspections and tests that should be done twice annually no matter what type of system you have.
• Make sure the technician first checks your indoor air filters to ensure proper air flow (this is the most common problem for heating and cooling issues)
Write a list of any problems, strange noises or general questions. It’s easy to forget issues when you’re talking with your service technician.
• The system should be run through its full cycle and power on and off
Other tips to get the most out of your inspection:
• They should check the connections and duct work for leaks
• Air flow and temperature should be measured
• If you have an inside unit, make sure nothing is blocking the air intake • Connections and wiring should be checked on electric heaters Dirty and clogged filters are one of the main reasons your HVAC system works harder to heat or cool your home, putting greater strain on the motor and contributing to breakdowns.

Home Power Homeowners are turning to powerful generators for comfort and safety
500,000 American households lose their power every day When the power goes out losses can range from minor inconveniences to a huge headache. Imagine having to replace a refrigerator or freezer full of food, cleaning a flooded basement caused by a backed-up septic system or even worse. Installation of home generations, the kind that power your entire home during power outages, is skyrocketing in the U.S. These are not the gas-spewing portable generators. These run quietly and are wired the electrical system in your home. Homeowners are installing these power systems in new and existing homes. Home generators detect power outages and kick on automatically. When power is restored, they turn back off.
They can run anything from a refrigerator to you A/C and furnace. This is certainly not a DIY project. Make sure your system is installed by a professional. Rheem offers Automatic Home Generators that provide permanent, backup protection from power outages for your home and your family. Rheem automatic home generators provide backup electricity for your air conditioner, appliances, lights, TVs or computers and give you the peace of mind. Rheem sells top-of-the-line generators and your contractor local Rheem contractor may be able to install it for you.
Watts vs. Kilowatts
Portable generators you see at home improvement stores are 300 or 600 watts. Standby, or whole house, generators are measured in kilowatts or “kW.” In short, one kW equals 1,000 watts. So, when we’re rating the sizes below, a 60 kW generators puts out 60,000 watts.
So, what size do you need? Your Rheem local dealer can provide a mountain of information, but in simple terms, standby generators break down into a couple of categories. 8-20kW Covers your home’s basic circuits providing backup power to your lights, refrigerator, television, computers and other small appliances. Designed to fit any property, this small generator has flexible placement options, making backup power a reality for many homeowners. 35-60 kW Ideal for extra large-sized and luxury homes, our commercial grade 35, 45, and 60kW units allow you to meet the power needs of all of life’s luxuries — little and big. These systems will supply enough power to manage up to two 5-ton air conditioners in addition to essential household power requirements.

Everything and the kitchen sink Farmhouse kitchens are growing in popularity, but whether you are going for a farmhouse look or something
