Derek Cole answers viewer questions about HVAC systems, including whether to close room vents, what causes burning dust smell when you first turn on heat, and how to size a unit for your home. He emphasizes regular maintenance and coil cleaning.
No, we have bacon-scented coil cleaner.
No, there's none. Is that it? That's it.
So episode 30, we're talking about smart meters. Should I close the vents off in my room?
And how do I know what size unit I need?
Today they had me in the warehouse, so you see stuff here, here, all around me, which is fine because it's what we do, is how we roll. So in my office today, that's right. You just probably see the door, so that's fine because you want to see all that over there. So make sure that it's clean and it will be balanced if it's clean. If it's not balanced, then fix it so it's balanced. It's because I watched Teen Mom last night. I watched Teen Mom and was like, man, my life is not that chaotic.

Hey, Derek Cole, this is episode 40. It's kind of a, uh, dust burning kind of smell, uh, when it first comes on. You're like, my house is on fire, where everybody else is like, no, it's not. You're fine. It's just because you haven't had maintenance, it's burning the dust off. So, but just a disclaimer, disclaimer, disclaimer, warning, warning. Yeah, check out all the episodes and send your questions in, #AskDerekCole, and we will get them on the show.
