Remodelling your home in the Greater Toronto Area is a thorough process that involves lots of planning, costs, and time. Many homeowners often prioritize the cosmetic portion of their remodel. However, the systems that allow your home to function are an extremely important point to keep in mind. Here’s the importance of your HVAC system during a home remodel.

Protecting Your Existing HVAC System
The home remodelling process will bring in loads of dust and dirt that will accumulate throughout the home. Your HVAC system can therefore be directly impacted by the debris. Protect your HVAC system by minimizing the amount of detritus collection. Aim to close all vents, windows open if possible, and avoid messy material directly next to the unit. Completing a home renovation without keeping your existing HVAC system in mind can lead to loads of problems down the line, make sure to have it well protected.

Upgrading Your Old HVAC System
Out with the old and in with the new applies to your flooring, kitchen, bathroom, so why not your HVAC system as well? If your HVAC system is nearing the end of its lifespan, an upgrade is the perfect time during renovation. You’ll have a new system to match your new home.

Filter, Filter, Filter
Air filters are commonly changed every 30 to 90 days. With increased exposure of dust and dirt, your filter may need to be changed sooner during your home renovation. Keep an eye on your air filter and make sure it is replaced to avoid any major build up.

Opportunity to Optimize Ductwork
Home renovations are often a perfect opportunity to get direct access to the ductwork. Use this opportunity to inspect the condition of your ductwork and take appropriate measures. Additionally, if you are doing any home expansions this would be the best time to expand your ductwork as well.
