Local conditions that affect your system
Crawl-space ducts
Ducts in humid crawl spaces can sweat, leak and pull in musty air; sealing and insulation help.
Humidity
Right-sized and variable-speed systems keep homes drier in summer.
Ice storms
Occasional winter ice storms push heat pumps onto backup heat and cause outages.
Seasons and peak demand in Charlotte
Charlotte summers are hot and humid, with highs around 90°F from June through August. Winters are mild, averaging in the 40s and 50s, with occasional ice. Heat pumps run in both seasons, so spring and fall tune-ups both pay off.
