FAQS
How do I adjust my HVAC register for airflow?
As we all know, heat rises. So, if your top floor is warmer than your lower level floors, you will need to adjust your registers. You will want to open your basement register so that is completely open. Adjust your main level register to be half open and your top floor register to a ¼ of the way open. To push heat to the lower levels in the summer, you will want to do the opposite.

How do I align garage door sensors?
If your garage door is out of alignment, you will need to realign the garage door sensors.
- There are two sensors. One on each side of the garage door and located near the floor. These are primarily used for safety, but if they are out of alignment, they will stop your garage door.
- To realign, simply look at the two garage door sensors. One or both of them will be facing up or down and they will display different light colors. Adjust the two garage door sensors so that the lights are the same color.
