Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.5 s5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 210 KiBAbout 210 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
1.2 s · 171 KiBAbout 171 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 60
60/100Your mobile performance score is 60. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 65 KiB5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (65 KiB).
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and carriercms.com and others), adding 612 KiB and 242 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 92 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
31 KiB3 images could be 31 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.7 s
A phone's processor spends 0.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 301 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 23 ms
23 msYour server sent the HTML in 23 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals

Total Blocking Time: 94 ms
94 msScripts block the page for only 94 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
abound-hvac-performance-ciat-h.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.28 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.28 g of CO₂e: 33.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1,001 KiB in 39 requests
1,001 KiBYour homepage downloads 1,001 KiB in 39 requests on a phone: scripts 423 KiB (7), images 245 KiB (16) and stylesheets 161 KiB (3). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline

Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details; logo would complete it.
