A Honeywell HVAC controller has a deep history in America reaching back to 1904. In that year, Mark Honeywell perfected a heat generator to sell and install at his plumbing and heating business. In 1906, he specialized in hot water heat generators and formed the company Honeywell Heating Specialty Co.

From that time all the way up to the present day, this company became involved in mergers. The direction of the company changed from heating units to being a specialist on system controls and sensors.

The Excel 5000 DDC, controls and totally automates a building’s HVAC system. This is a standalone unit or can be used in a dial up mode or as part of a network. With this as your control unit you no longer need to find the sensor, just open it up on your computer with CARE software and set the parameters you wish to live in.

For home use, there are wireless thermostats. This gives the homeowner the choice of where they wish to locate the temperature control unit. This can be anywhere you wish it to be, either on a wall or in a cupboard. There are no longer any limitations.

For maximum control and freedom, there are units that have remote controls. This allows access to your HVAC system from any room at any time. The Honeywell’s Vision Pro IAQ Total Home comfort System is the control unit that controls the HVAC system and the indoor air quality system all in one.

For many years the choice you had for water heaters was to decide on how large of a holding tank you would need.  Now you have another choice and when you select this method of water heating you will save money and qualify for a federal tax credit.

Plumbing and heating technology have advanced and we now have Tankless Water Heaters.  No more will you be heating a large volume of water each time the heating cycle kicks in.

When you think of it with the old style of hot water tank, you would be heating up a large reserve that would be available for the next time a batch of hot water was needed for a bath or laundry.

That large tank of water would sit there all day and slowly it would cool off.  When it got down to the point that the thermostat would kick in it would heat the tank back up to your high temp setting and then the cycle would start all over again.

So why use energy to heat up water that you do not use?  A tankless heater is so efficient it only uses power or fuel on demand.  When you turn on a hot water faucet the heating method kicks right in so fast that you have a nice supply of perfect temperature water for as long as you need it.

Shut off the faucet and the heater shuts off.  No longer are you paying the natural gas company or the power company to heat up a big tank of hot water to only have it sit there and cool off and heat up again.

It just makes perfect sense to use only the energy you need, and not to be wasteful.  The brands of tankless systems that the John C. Flood, Inc. company carry are; Renai, Takagi, Bosch and Noritz.  Contact a Flood team member now to see how you can get $200 off from one of these new installations until December 31, 2009.  Ask them about how to apply for the tax credit also.
