Another reminder Alisa offers? “Make sure your home is warm and cozy in more ways than just the decor.” A new build’s blueprint stage is a chance to invest in a forced air heating/air conditioning setup. “Before you start building, you can map out the perfect duct system,” explains Alisa. “It’s definitely possible for the team at Beck’s to install forced air heat in renovated homes; we’ve done that many times. Still, installing it in a new home is the most effective, efficient approach.” High-quality ventilation, such as Beck’s Home & Heating’s Greentek HRV Systems, is imperative when it comes to new builds. “For the first year in a new home, there’s a substantial amount of moisture, as the concrete’s still drying,” explains Alisa. Telltale window condensation or mold indicate that a home requires more powerful air movement, which can be confirmed by Beck’s Home & Heating’s inspection team. Forced air heating offers a number of advantages, Alisa adds. “It can be 100 per cent electric... no messy oil tank or wood to deal with. Very clean. And homeowner’s insurance tends to cost less. Forced air units are extremely economical.” The “smart” forced air systems installed by Beck’s Home & Heating can be connected to Wi-Fi, and managed by phone. Thus, there’s no need for a couple to return from their honeymoon only to shiver in a chilly house. “You can use your phone to adjust your home’s temperature from the airport,” says Alisa. “Your house could be warm and cozy by the time you arrive!”
