Problems Become More Prevalent With Increased Usage, Says Cornerstone

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/24/2024 -- As summer officially kicks off, Cornerstone Pros reminds homeowners that air conditioning problems become more common as the temperatures rise.

While AC repair in Land O'Lakes, FL, is common any time of year, it becomes increasingly important to have potential issues identified and addressed as soon as possible to prevent discomfort and health problems on the hottest days.

Issues that can cause AC breakdowns include lost power, excessive wear and tear, system age and refrigerant leaks. While it is impossible to prevent 100% of air conditioning system problems from occurring, Cornerstone knows yearly routine maintenance can help significantly reduce the risk of problems that interfere with regular comfort on hot summer days.

For assistance with any air conditioning-related repairs or to inquire about air conditioning installations in Land O' Lakes, FL, homeowners should call Cornerstone. Reach out by phone at 813.993.7995 or online.

Storm Damage to Comfort Systems Is Avoidable, Says Cornerstone

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/22/2024 -- With Florida's hurricane season beginning soon, Cornerstone Pros is encouraging homeowners to protect their homes and families from potential storm damage.

While securing loved ones' health and safety takes top priority, keeping power available should be high on the list in an emergency. Whole-home backup generators are great options to keep homes fully operational during extended power outages.

Portable generator units are another strong choice. While these generators are smaller and less powerful, they provide similar benefits, such as lighting and refrigeration, for a more limited time in an emergency. Such units should only be used with a generator interlock kit, Cornerstone advises.

For assistance with pre-storm heating and cooling system inspection or for generator options manufactured by Generac, Tampa homeowners should call Cornerstone. Reach out by phone at 813.993.7995 or online.

Sewage Issues Should Not Be Ignored, Says Cornerstone

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/15/2024 -- With milder weather and increased rainfall coming with warmer months, Cornerstone Pros is encouraging homeowners to be mindful of common sewer line issues that can cause backflow into their homes.

The company suggests home sewer cleaning and repair in Tampa is just as essential as AC maintenance even though it's not required as often. While sewer lines are built to withstand excess use and pressure over time, they are particularly susceptible to damage that cannot be seen or noticed immediately by the naked eye.

Potential sewer line issues include excessive blockages from items (such as diapers or wet wipes), pipe corrosion from water contaminants or forces of nature (such as entangled tree roots). Any problem can cause pipe failure, leading to the potential for leaks of wastewater back into the home. To combat this, Cornerstone Pros suggests making sewer line inspection and repair a regular part of your home's plumbing maintenance.

Customers interested in sewer line inspection, repair or drain clog removal service are urged to call Cornerstone Pros directly at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Choosing the Right Tasks to Address Can Save Unnecessary Repairs

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/16/2024 -- Professional home comfort services are vital, though many homeowners choose to complete tasks themselves to save on service fees, repair costs and time invested while waiting for repairs.

Cornerstone Pros, which provides the Tampa area with heating, cooling, plumbing and electrical services, understands that homeowners might choose the DIY route for smaller, easier projects. These include air filter changes, exterior air conditioning cleaning and temporary leak repairs.

Other projects, however, should be left to the professionals, the company advises. Larger projects, such as plumbing installations, HVAC maintenance and electrical work, should only be handled by licensed professionals. This is to ensure safety for the home and its occupants, adherence to local codes and regulations, and prevention of unnecessary repairs when a DIY project goes awry.

Customers are encouraged to call Cornerstone with any questions or to schedule plumbing, electrical, cooling or heating services in Tampa or nearby.

Adopting Energy-Saving Practices Can Help Prepare for Rising Equipment Costs

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/16/2024 -- With 2024 underway, Cornerstone Pros is advising customers of upcoming changes in the HVAC industry.

In addition to fine-tuning comfort with electric hot water heater repair services in Tampa, FL, homeowners should also ensure their home cooling systems are in good working order for the year ahead. Changes in refrigerant standards, as laid out by the AIM (American Innovation and Manufacturing) Act, mean the cost to maintain older equipment could begin to rise in the near future. Regular maintenance now will help current systems last as long as possible.

Homeowners also are advised to make efforts to monitor and improve their energy usage in the new year. Making small changes, such as turning the thermostat off when no one is home, can add up over time for significant savings.

Customers are encouraged to ask their Cornerstone Pros technician for more information and guidance on the new refrigerant standards and what they mean for each individual home. These highly trained professionals also can identify more ways to lower monthly energy bills in 2024.

For services, including a residential water heater inspection in Tampa, FL, please call Cornerstone Pros directly at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Solutions Available for Extended Time Indoors, Company Says

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 12/18/2023 -- With the holidays approaching, many homeowners will be spending more time indoors with their families and guests. This extended time indoors means it's more important than ever to maintain healthy indoor air quality, says Cornerstone Pros.

While serving as the go-to local electrical, cooling and heating professionals, Cornerstone also regularly advises on indoor air quality solutions to create healthier living spaces. This includes inspecting homes and asking questions on indoor habits to find the solutions that work best for each individual living space.

One powerful solution is a UV light purification system, which is effective at eliminating contaminants before they invade indoor air. An air scrubber is also commonly recommended to further sanitize air, including eliminating odors and smoke that originate inside the home.

Keep Guests Happy and Save Energy, Company Says

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/15/2023 -- With the Thanksgiving holiday fast approaching, many homeowners will be welcoming family and friends into their homes to celebrate. While hosts can prepare with an inspection for their HVAC system or a thorough drain cleaning in Tampa, FL, there are additional steps that can be taken to keep guests comfortable and energy bills low.

Constantly adjusting the thermostat to cool or heat the home during a family gathering will use up more energy. Having multiple guests in the home will naturally increase the temperature, which means setting the thermostat lower earlier on in the day will be ideal to level out the temperature. Doors and windows should also remain closed as often as possible to prevent comfortable air from escaping, though they can be opened for brief periods if the temperature gets too high.

Improving the home's indoor air quality is also advised prior to inviting family and friends over. Because viruses can survive and reproduce more effectively in colder weather, guests may be at higher risk at holiday gatherings. Changing air filters or installing equipment, like an air scrubber or UV light system, can help reduce air contaminants and the spread of airborne bacteria.

Decorations Should Be Placed Carefully, Says Cornerstone Pros

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/16/2023 -- As the fall weather sets in, homeowners are advised to take extra measures to prepare their homes for the remainder of the year by considering services like residential water heater inspections and more in their Tampa, FL, homes.

In addition to servicing their home comfort equipment, it is also important to consider the placement of decorations for the upcoming holiday season. While many decorations are harmless, poor placement can cause unintended issues with equipment operation, energy consumption and air quality.

Homeowners should avoid placing decorations on or near their indoor and outdoor HVAC equipment, or near indoor air vents. Decorations with small parts or thin materials can create blockages, leading to potentially costly damage to the equipment and overall home comfort. Decorations using open flames should also be avoided as to prevent safety hazards.

Thermostat Upgrades Are Often Overlooked, Says Cornerstone Pros

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/15/2023 -- As homeowners seek AC repair in their Land O' Lakes, FL, homes near the end of summer, it is suggested they also seek out additional methods of improving their home comfort and energy efficiency.

With the upcoming changing of the seasons, Cornerstone Pros advises homeowners to consider an upgrade to their homes' thermostats if they have not already done so. Because of fluctuating temperatures as the seasons change, a modernized thermostat can potentially provide increased comfort and energy savings.

Many homes with bubble-style thermostats may not have had an upgrade in several years. While these units may still work, they are outperformed by the possibilities that modernized thermostats offer. These options include programmable temperature times, access to different zones in the home and remote access to the thermostat from anywhere with an internet-enabled device.

For those interested in assistance with choosing a new, compatible thermostat for their home or for other services, such as plumbing in Homosassa, FL, contact Cornerstone Pros at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Seasonal Issues Are Often Overlooked, Says Cornerstone Pros

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 08/16/2023 -- With summer in full swing, homeowners are advised to remember more than just AC repair in their Land O' Lakes, FL, homes. Paying attention to plumbing systems is important, too.

According to Cornerstone Pros, the summer months are primed to see an uptick of common plumbing issues like clogged drains and toilets. This is due to not only increased usage while more family members are home during the summer, but also due to increased sand, dirt and other sediment that's brought into the home on hands, feet and shoes and washed down sinks and showers, increasing the potential for clogs.

Because washing machines and water heaters are also often used more heavily in the summer months, the team at Cornerstone Pros recommends doing smaller loads of wash and keeping close watch on the water heater's effectiveness to avoid breakdowns. It's also vital to ensure sump pumps are in working order to prevent basement flooding during summer rainstorms.

For those interested in assistance with plumbing safety or those searching the internet for "the best AC installation company near me," please contact Cornerstone Pros at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Cornerstone Pros Provides DIY Steps for Basic AC Solutions

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/17/2023 -- As the summer months bring an increased reliance on air conditioning service in the Land O' Lakes, FL, area, homeowners are advised to understand the signs of common cooling issues that can be identified and solved without the need to wait for a service call, says Cornerstone Pros.

In instances where an air conditioner does not turn on, there are a number of steps homeowners can take to diagnose the problem. These include ensuring that power is flowing to the unit, checking that the thermostat is set properly and inspecting the drain line for excess water.

If the air conditioner is freezing over, homeowners can ensure proper airflow by regularly changing the air filter. Other issues, such as a low refrigerant level or leak, will require professional assistance.

While DIY solutions are a great way to save money and avoid prolonged discomfort, it is important that homeowners do not attempt any repairs or solutions they don't feel comfortable doing. Even through a busy season like the summer, Cornerstone Pros will be happy to send a technician out to help as soon as possible.

For those interested in further assistance or other services, including air purifier suggestions for added home safety, please contact Cornerstone Pros at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Cornerstone Pros Details the Importance of Addressing Aging AC Systems

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/16/2023 -- Historically, air conditioner repairs in Land O' Lakes, FL, begin to rise with the arrival of summer. Before the temperatures soar, homeowners would be wise to gain a full understanding of their cooling systems' age and capabilities. This will help avoid problems that come with outdated equipment, says Cornerstone Pros.

The average lifespan of an air conditioning system is between 10-12 years. Too many homeowners choose to repair aging systems instead of replacing them, but doing so could cause more problems in the long run than it appears to solve right away.

Potential issues include equipment that must work harder to provide cool air, resulting in less effective comfort and higher energy costs. Overusing old equipment can also cause parts to fail more often, leading to more frequent breakdowns and potential safety hazards.

Homeowners can check the age of their system by inspecting the nameplate on the unit for an installation date or serial information that can be used online to find the manufacture date. However, it's best to contact an expert like Cornerstone Pros for a professional review and recommendations.

For those interested in air conditioning replacement for their Land O' Lakes, FL, home, please contact Cornerstone Pros at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Understanding ‘Repair vs. Replace’ for Your AC Is Vital, Cornerstone Pros Says

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/17/2023 -- With spring temperatures in Florida hitting the low 90s, Cornerstone Pros is advising homeowners to prepare for a hot summer that will likely see air conditioning units operating at full capacity to keep homes cool. To avoid potential breakdowns and home comfort emergencies, homeowners should schedule system replacements or air conditioner repairs in Land O' Lakes and nearby before the official arrival of summer.

Because air conditioning systems work harder in higher temperatures to keep homes cool, the risk of malfunctions or other problems increases with the overall age of the system.

Potential issues include a buildup of dirt and dust on AC components and refrigerant leaks that could lead to frozen coils. These types of issues reduce the system's effectiveness and could lead to irreparable damage.

Cornerstone Pros knows all too well that older units are more susceptible to issues and that an AC replacement should be considered if the current system is 10-12 years old or older. Addressing problems in the spring helps homeowners avoid:

Longer wait times associated with summertime home cooling service visits.
Higher energy bills that come with operating an older, inefficient system.

Homeowners can check their units manually for a manufacture or installation date, but are invited to reach out to Cornerstone Pros for a professional review of their air conditioning system and suggestions for continued home cooling success. Those interested in air conditioning replacement for their Land O' Lakes home can contact Cornerstone Pros at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Indoor Air Quality Crucial to Home Comfort, Cornerstone Pros Says

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/17/2023 -- With the spring season underway, homeowners should be aware of increased pollen and other airborne contaminants in the air that can trigger seasonal allergies. To avoid problems inside the home, the team at Cornerstone Pros recommends exploring air quality solutions following regular air quality inspections.

Poor indoor air quality can cause coughing, sneezing, sore throats, dizziness and more. Taking steps to improve indoor air quality can help reduce the risk of health problems and prevent situations that trigger breathing episodes at home.

For starters, Cornerstone Pros can recommend and install dedicated air quality equipment to help maintain healthy air for every member of the household. Equipment may include air purifiers, air scrubbers or UV light systems for Tampa homes. The experts at Cornerstone Pros will recommend these solutions based on what is best for each home.

In addition to pollen and other allergens, indoor air quality can be compromised by household cleaners, tobacco smoke and pesticides.

To avoid indoor air problems due to these items, steps that can be taken include maintaining a regular cleaning schedule or hiring a professional cleaning service, ensuring proper ventilation when using chemical-based cleaning products or pesticides, or eliminating these products altogether.

When completing home renovations or repairs, the work should be done when few people are home and the work area should be thoroughly cleaned after the work is complete.

While each season brings new challenges for maintaining healthy indoor air quality levels, Cornerstone Pros continues to provide effective air cleaning solutions to ensure Florida homeowners continue to breathe easy in their own homes. Those interested in air solutions can contact Cornerstone Pros at 813.993.7995 or reach out online.

Tax Refunds Can Help Save Money, Says Cornerstone Pros

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/05/2023 -- With the April 18 federal tax filing deadline approaching, homeowners are encouraged to begin making a plan for their tax refund should they be expecting one, says Cornerstone Pros. Not only can refunds help offset the cost of large-scale work like air conditioning replacement in Land O' Lakes, FL, but there are a variety of avenues available for tax refunds to be more than just spending money.

Cornerstone Pros advises homeowners to begin preparing to file their tax return earlier rather than later to avoid potential stress that may build for many individuals. Additionally, creating a plan to receive a potential refund earlier yields fewer opportunities for this additional money to be spent frivolously or wasted. Homeowners should consider investing their tax refunds into their homes, especially toward work that is often put on the back burner.

By investing a tax refund into the home, homeowners can actually save money in the long term, Cornerstone Pros points out. This includes: 1) the installation of new heating and cooling equipment, which can lead to reduced energy bills year-round or 2) much-needed maintenance on home comfort systems, which can prevent costly repairs in the future. Other considerations include big-ticket repairs and home improvements such as paint, appliances and fixtures that can increase a home's market value.

Additionally, Cornerstone Pros seeks to aid homeowners in making their home improvement endeavors even more affordable by offering five years of no-interest financing (with approved credit only) on large equipment installations. Coupled with a tax refund, homeowners are enabled to make the necessary improvements to their homes to enhance both comfort and value overall.

Cornerstone Pros continues to provide trusted service and guidance for customers all year long. Those seeking consultations or more information on equipment installation, such as Generac generators for their Tampa, FL, home, can contact Cornerstone Pros at 813.859.6786 or reach out online.

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/05/2023 -- Homeowners seeking services such as heating, electric, plumbing, water purifier installation and more in Brandon, FL, and the surrounding communities have turned to Cornerstone Pros for years. Now, the company is raising awareness of new energy efficiency regulations that have officially gone into effect.

As of January 1, 2023, The Department of Energy (DOE) enacted new requirements and replaced the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) system with the new SEER2 system. Designed to increase the overall efficiency of air conditioners and heat pumps, SEER2 accounts for real-world conditions that SEER did not measure as accurately.

Here in the Southeast region, residential central air systems below 45,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs) must have a SEER2 rating of 14.3, while those above 45,000 BTUs must have a SEER2 rating of 13.8. Heat pumps nationwide must meet a 14.3 SEER2 rating.

The SEER2 system is designed to raise energy efficiency standards across the industry and help homeowners save on their monthly utility bills. However, the upfront cost of standard equipment is expected to rise by 20% to 40% in the new year. Air conditioning equipment manufactured in 2022 or earlier that does not meet the new SEER2 requirements can no longer be installed in the Southeast region. Due to nationwide supply shortages, the demand for SEER2-compliant equipment and the upcoming summer months, Cornerstone is suggesting that homeowners consider replacing their equipment before costs continue to rise.

Through these changes, customers can continue to rely on Cornerstone Pros for trusted services, including AC and heating maintenance, water softener installation and more in Brandon, FL, and the surrounding Tampa Bay area. Additionally, due to their continued partnership with Carrier, Cornerstone Pros can continue to meet customer demand with Carrier products that already meet the new SEER2 rating requirements. To learn more, homeowners should call Cornerstone Pros at 813.859.6786 or reach out online.

Cornerstone Pros Can Steer Families in the Right Direction

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/05/2023 -- Homeowners in Pasco County and nearby who are searching for top-of-the-line heat pumps should search no further than Cornerstone Pros.

This team offers a wide range of heat pumps designed to meet the unique needs of homes of all sizes and styles. Based on the name of this system, many people think heat pumps only heat properties. But these unique systems perform double duty—cooling homes in the summer, too. Heat pumps aren't the best option for every home because they aren't as effective in extremely cold weather. But they are a great option in Florida, where the winters are short and moderate.

The HVAC technicians at Cornerstone are known for their expertise and commitment to customers. When a homeowner is interested in a heat pump, this crew will schedule a visit, take measurements and provide an honest opinion to a homeowner on whether a heat pump is the best choice. If it is a smart choice, Cornerstone will order the new heat pump and then provide a seamless installation. Most homeowners don't realize that the installation process is just as important as the system itself. A poor installation can lead to higher energy bills and a shorter lifespan for a system, which must work overtime when the installation is faulty.

If a Cornerstone technician determines a heat pump is not the best choice, he or she will always steer the homeowner in the right direction. Sometimes, that leads to a furnace.

Either way, homeowners and businesses can count on Cornerstone when they are looking for answers to all of their questions about heat pumps in Tampa and nearby. To learn more, homeowners should call Cornerstone at 727.295.3099 or contact this team through its website.

The Skilled Electricians at Cornerstone Pros Can Make This Connection

Land O'Lakes, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/03/2022 -- Using extension cords to power portable generators isn't just a hassle. It's also a potential safety hazard.

Homeowners can avoid the inconvenience and potential risks of using extension cords by having a transfer switch installed by the generator pros at Cornerstone. A transfer switch is a small device that allows the generator to connect to a home's circuit breaker panel. It acts like a miniature circuit breaker panel, drawing electricity from the generator instead of the electrical grid during a power outage.

How Does It Work?
Using a transfer switch to power a Generac generator in a home in Tampa and nearby is much safer than relying on extension cords. During a power failure, a homeowner plugs the portable generator into an outdoor outlet that's connected to the transfer switch, which is located inside the house. Typically, the electrician will place this switch next to the main circuit breaker panel.

During the transfer switch installation process, the homeowner decides which circuits get powered during an outage. Obvious choices include heating, cooling, the water heater and well pump (if the home is serviced by a well).

Disadvantages of using extension cords to power the generator include:

- Multiple extension cords, which need to be outdoor-rated, will be needed to avoid the risk of overload.
- Only electronics with standard plugs can be powered up.
- Anything that's hardwired to the circuit panel, such as the furnace or air conditioner, cannot be connected using extension cords.
- The electric range and clothes dryer can't be plugged into the generator because they use 220-volt, four-pronged plugs.

Smart homeowners will make sure their portable generators are equipped with a transfer switch.

Cornerstone Pros also offers permanent whole home generators that protect families and their homes by automatically sensing power loss and triggering a backup power system.

To find out what is the best option, homeowners should call Cornerstone Pros at 727.295.3099 or fill out the online contact form.

Cornerstone Pros—the go-to company for AC, heating, plumbing and electrical services in Brandon, FL, and beyond—turns this aspiration into a reality with its home climate control solutions. Specializing in smart thermostats and HVAC zoning systems, this company helps homeowners lower their energy bills while optimizing their indoor comfort.

Looking for increased comfort and efficiency? That's exactly what an HVAC zoning system is designed to do! Using dampers in the ductwork to regulate and redirect air to specific areas of the home, this heating and cooling system allows for the creation of customized temperature zones throughout the home. In turn, homeowners will enjoy a more cost-efficient and personalized approach to comfort.

A smart thermostat is a climate control device that automatically adjusts a home's heating and cooling temperatures for optimal performance. To do this, it studies a family's behaviors, learning temperature preferences and schedules. It then uses this information to set temperatures based on whether occupants are home, asleep or away, automatically adjusting the indoor climate to the most energy- and cost-efficient setting. Plus, the thermostats Cornerstone offers are Wi-Fi enabled. This means residents who have access to smart phones, tablets or computers can control the temperature of their homes remotely.

Installing a Wi-Fi thermostat
- Makes it easy to save money
