Dust and debris in the ductwork can reduce the HVAC system’s ei ciency and damage its components, so have the duc- twork inspected before shopping for a new system. Your contractor should also inspect the home’s elec- trical system to be sure it provides enough power to handle a new, upgraded HVAC system. Step 3: Discuss your ei ciency and “stage” options Whether shopping for a furnace, air conditioner or heat pump, always check the ei ciency of the unit you are considering. h e ei ciency of a fuel-burning furnace is expressed as the annual fuel utilization ei - ciency (AFUE). Air-conditioning systems are rated ac- cording to their seasonal energy ei ciency ratio (SEER) and heat pump ei ciency is expressed as the unit’s heating seasonal perfor_mance factor (HSPF). Gener- ally speaking, a higher AFUE, SEER or HSPF means increased ei ciency and reduced operating expenses. If you’re in the market for a new furnace, choose from a single-stage, two-stage or modulating furnace. Single-stage furnaces operate at full capacity all the time. Two-stage furnaces have two separate heating settings-a lower setting that is used when the furnace D-070 • Reasonable Rates • Public Notice There will be a public workshop of the Western Lane Am- bulance District Board of Directors and Siuslaw Valley Fire and Rescue Board on Thursday April 7, 2016.

Publication date: March 30, 2016 (NAPSA)-h e charm of an older home is an attrac- tive selling feature. Less appealing are the inei ciencies of an older heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) system or the absence of a cooling system. Updating to an HVAC system improves comfort and ot en makes good economic sense, but it requires care- ful planning. Asking the right questions and enlisting the help of a qualii ed HVAC contractor can make it possible to create a comfortable, ei cient environment without spoiling the character of these classic struc- tures. Step 1: Determine how much equipment you need Ask your HVAC contractor to conduct a “Manual J” load calculation to determine your home’s unique heat- ing and cooling needs. h is calculation analyzes every- thing that af ects air temperature in your home-things like windows, orientation to the sun, and duct leakage. Using this calculation, your contractor can recommend the right-size equipment for your home. Step 2: Determine the location of the unit and in- spect ductwork Ask your contractor where the new equipment will be located and whether your ductwork is properly S PUBLIC NOTICE NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Notice is hereby given that the Dunes City Council will hold a public hearing on April 14, 2016, at 7:00 pm in the Dunes City Hall, 82877 Spruce Street, Westlake, OR.
