Heating and Air Questions
How do you know when your AC needs servicing?
If your AC system has any of the following issues you may be in need of repair:
- Warm air blowing out of the vents in your home.
- AC system frequently cycling on and off.
- Humidity in your home making you uncomfortable.
- Strange smells or odors in your home.
- Banging noises in your AC unit.
If any of the above issues are occurring with your air conditioning system we recommend contacting a licensed and certified HVAC professional to diagnose your AC problem.
How do you know when your AC needs servicing?
Ignoring regular AC maintenance or failing to have it performed can result in a mechanical failure of your AC system. It can also lead to a shorter life span for your air conditioning system. AC maintenance helps to keep your unit operating efficiently as well as allows a licensed HVAC technician to diagnose minor problems before they become a major headache for you. We recommend spring and fall maintenance for your AC system, this allows your AC system to keep your home comfortable all year long.
How much does it cost to repair an AC unit?
The cost to repair an AC unit will vary. Most HVAC companies will have a service charge to diagnose your AC system problems as well as a fee or charge to repair the issue. Contacting an HVAC professional is always the best bet if you have AC system issues as attempting to repair it yourself or ignoring the problem may lead to more costly repairs in the long run.
When should I replace my air conditioner?
The average lifespan of an air conditioner ranges between 10-15 years. Regular maintenance on your AC system may help it to last longer than systems that have not had maintenance performed. Not sure if you need a new air conditioner? We recommend calling an air conditioning professional for your free AC system replacement estimate and rebate options. This can help you determine the right SEER system your home needs to keep you cool all year long.
How does SEER rating work?
A SEER rating for your air conditioning system measures its ability to cool your home efficiently and also effectively. The SEER is calculated by the cooling output divided by the total electrical energy input during the same time. SEER stands for seasonal energy efficiency rating. It is used in the heating and air industry to determine which AC system is right for your home so you stay as comfortable as can be.
What would cause my AC not to come on?
There are several reasons an AC system may not come on. If you have this issue, check your thermostat for loose or disconnected wires. Wires that are frayed or disconnected will not allow your AC system to turn on. Another issue could be a faulty or broken thermostat. If you look into these two solutions and still have an issue, give us a call. We are here to help.
