			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-666" title="eddie-greg" src="http://www.beair.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/eddie-greg.jpg" alt="" width="250" height="142" />We&#8217;ve had a few very nice and warm days in Charlotte which means home cooling season is right around the corner! Don&#8217;t wait until the last minute to get your home air conditioner or heat pump system tune up, schedule your <a href="http://www.beair.com/services/preventative-maintenance/">Peak Performance Service</a> today!</p>
<p>We realize that our customers don&#8217;t really need heating or cooling at this time of year, so the <a href="http://www.beair.com/services/">service department</a> at B&amp;E Air Conditioning and Heating goes into maintenance mode for several weeks.  During the months of March-April, we use almost all of our company resources to make sure our customers have their annual <a href="http://www.beair.com/hvac-maintenance/spring-cooling-system-maintenance-time/"><strong>spring air conditioner or cooling system maintenance</strong></a> completed.</p>
<p>Learn more about <a href="http://www.beair.com/services/preventative-maintenance/">preventative maintenance plans</a>, <a href="http://www.beair.com/hvac-maintenance/spring-cooling-system-maintenance-time/">annual tune ups</a> or <strong>call us at 704.333.0363</strong> and ask to speak to Lisa to <strong>schedule your annual maintenance today</strong>!</p>
<h2>Cooling System Tuneup &#8211; Why You Need it &amp; What to Expect</h2>
<p>I bet you didn’t know you were over paying your light company that much did you? As much as half of the energy used in your home goes to heating and cooling. So making smart decisions about your home&#8217;s HVAC system can have a big effect on your utility bills, and your comfort.</p>
<p>You wouldn’t drive your car 100,000 miles without changing the oil. Just as a tune-up for your car can improve your gas mileage, a yearly tune-up of your heating and cooling system can improve efficiency and comfort. The same logic holds true for your home comfort system. Regular preventative maintenance is the best way to ensure trouble-free operation and peak performance.</p>
<p>Opposite of the <a href="../heating/fall-heating-system-repair-and-checkup-time/">fall furnace checkups</a>,  in the springtime we like to focus our attention on the entire cooling  system of your home. The service technician who comes to your home needs  about an hour to clean and test the central ac or cooling mode of the  heat pump system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many of our HVAC competitors charge the lessor because they have not obtained proper licensing. North Carolina licensing and registration is required for the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) industry. HVAC companies who are not properly registered are often in business one day but non-existent the next. Equipment installed by a company operating without a license voids the equipment warranty.</p>
<p>A minimum amount of liability, workers compensation, and bond is required. There should be enough insurance coverage for all jobs that are bid and performed to protect the company and the consumer.</p>
<p>With all the doom-and-gloom news about the economy, we are thankful that B&amp;E is still running strong. When asked how we manage to have stay in business, we offer the following tips and strategies for keeping our doors open and new customers calling:</p>
<ul>
<li>Do not slack off on your marketing and advertising</li>
<li>Emphasize your licensing, insurance, and professionalism</li>
<li>Save cash, negotiate with your vendors, train and innovate</li>
<li>Resist the temptation of credit cards</li>
<li>Stretch your business budget by managing small stuff such as keeping your heating and air expenses in check. Keeping the temperature a few degrees cooler (or warmer) can add up</li>
</ul>
