Summer in Rhode Island can bring sweltering heat and oppressive humidity, making it challenging to stay comfortable indoors. While traditional air conditioning systems are a common solution, they’re not the only, or most reliable, way to keep your home cool as the temperatures start to rise.
CARJON is your local home comfort expert with 35 years of experience helping homeowners and businesses improve their comfort, efficiency, and indoor air quality. We offer various alternative cooling solutions that can help you beat the heat and enjoy a comfortable living environment throughout the summer.
What Causes Summer Comfort Issues
While high temperatures can definitely lead to problems, humidity is often the primary culprit behind summer discomfort. High moisture levels in the air can make temperatures feel significantly warmer than they are, leading to a sticky and uncomfortable home. When humidity is high, sweat doesn't evaporate as quickly, preventing your body from cooling down efficiently. This can lead to increased reliance on cooling systems, higher energy bills, and persistent discomfort.
Whole-Home Solutions for Staying Cool
At CARJON, we offer several services that can help you combat indoor humidity and make your home feel more comfortable throughout the summer months.
Humidity Control
Managing indoor humidity is essential for maintaining comfort. Dehumidifiers can be used to reduce moisture levels, making your home feel cooler and more comfortable. Additionally, modern air conditioners and heat pumps are often equipped with built-in dehumidification features that help maintain optimal humidity levels while cooling your home.
AC or Heat Pump Upgrades
Upgrading to a high-efficiency air conditioner or heat pump can significantly improve your home's cooling performance. Newer models are designed to provide better temperature and humidity control, ensuring a more comfortable indoor environment. Look for systems with high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings and ENERGY STAR® certification for maximum efficiency and cost savings.
Ductless Mini Splits for Hard-to-Cool Rooms
Ductless mini-split systems are an excellent solution for cooling specific areas of your home that your central system cannot reach. These units can be installed in individual rooms, providing targeted cooling without the need for ductwork. They are highly efficient and offer precise temperature control, making them ideal for home offices, bedrooms, or any other hard-to-cool spaces.
Whole-Home Ventilation
Proper ventilation is key to maintaining a comfortable and healthy indoor environment. Effective ventilation systems help expel hot air and bring in cooler, fresher air, which can significantly reduce indoor temperatures. Ventilation systems are designed to improve air circulation and reduce indoor humidity levels.
