What do high-efficiency furnaces, heat pumps, and air conditioners have in common? They all keep you and your family comfortable throughout the year, and they all require professional maintenance and periodical tune-ups to ensure optimal heating and cooling performance. With summer right around the corner, your primary concern should be making sure that your air conditioner is in tiptop shape. Considering that your AC unit has been out of commission for quite a few months, it’s a good idea to let a professional heating and cooling technician take a look at it before it really gets hot outside. Here are a few reasons why:
- Peace of Mind: First and foremost, a professional AC tune-up from Rusk Heating & Cooling will ensure fewer repairs, fewer breakdowns, and improved system reliability. In other words, our professional AC repair and service technicians will give you the peace of mind of knowing that your home will be cool and comfortable all summer long.
- Better Cooling Capacity: When your AC unit is tuned-up, it will be in peak operating condition, meaning that it will cool your home more effectively and most importantly, more efficiently. So in addition to a more reliable and effective cooling system, a tuned-up air conditioner will also reduce your monthly cooling costs. In fact, it practically pays for itself!
- Extends the Life of Your Equipment: By keeping your system tuned-up, you will also help to prevent premature breakdowns and equipment failure due to excessive wear and tear. Not only will a tune-up reduce your monthly cooling costs, but it will also save you the added expense of unnecessary (and unexpected) AC repairs.
An air conditioner is a huge investment that you depend on daily. Fortunately, Rusk Heating & Cooling in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky can help make sure your system stays reliable and efficient for a long, long time. We are a Factory Authorized Carrier dealer, but we service nearly every type and brand of air conditioning equipment ever made.

The most widespread criticism of heat pumps is that they just don’t have the ability to bring the heat like a furnace when the thermometer really drops. Fortunately, the brand new Carrier Infinity 20 heat pump with Greenspeed intelligence changes all of that. By harnessing variable speed technology, the Infinity 20 provides continuous heat when homeowners need it most, even when temperatures drop into single digits. However, energy-efficiency is not sacrificed for strong heating performance. In fact, the Carrier Infiniti 20 heat pump is 29 percent more efficient than the nearest competitor.
To learn more about the ultra-high efficiency heating and cooling capabilities of the Infiniti 20 heat pump with Greenspeed intelligence, take a look at this video.

As a certified Fujitsu dealer, Rusk Heating & Cooling is in the business of providing home owners with the appliances and equipment they need to keep their homes comfortable all year long. One of our most popular cooling solutions, especially for two-story homes, is a ductless split air conditioning system. Ductless split air conditioning systems offer room-by-room, or “zone,” cooling. As a result, ductless systems minimize the over-cooling you can get with central air-conditioning systems.
- How Ductless Systems Work: As the name implies, ductless air conditioning systems do not rely on ductwork to deliver cool air. Instead, simple copper tubing and electrical wiring is connected to a separately installed outdoor compressor unit. Refrigerant is pumped from the compressor through the tubing where a fan then quietly distributes cool air in the room.
- Benefits of Ductless Systems: Home owners experience a number of benefits with a ductless system. For one, ductless systems are incredibly easy to install and can be installed virtually anywhere in your home. Ductless split air conditioning systems are also remarkably quiet. While they are not as energy efficient as geothermal systems, ductless systems can greatly reduce your monthly cooling costs, especially when you consider that duct losses can account for more than 30 percent of home energy consumption. Homes that don’t have existing ductwork can greatly benefit from a ductless split air conditioning system. However, ductless air conditioners are also ideal for lofts, garages, attic workspaces, and other rooms in your home that may only need occasional, concentrated cooling.
To learn how you can keep your home cool and comfortable with a ductless split air conditioning system, contact Rusk Heating & Cooling, your trusted Fujitsu dealer.
