This is a reminder that we cannot bring up often enough: you must change (or clean) the air filter in your HVAC system routinely during the year as part of regular maintenance. This filter protects the cabinet that houses your air conditioner and furnace—or heat pump, in some cases—and prevents dust and other debris entering via the return air vents from creating damage.
Hard starting” is a condition that can affect air conditioners (as well as other mechanical devices, such as cars) where the motors and the compressor responsible for operating the system have trouble coming on and staying on. If you air conditioner is hard starting, it will stutter as it attempts to turn on, and will then cycle-off soon after it comes to life. Often the hard starting is accompanied by clicking and grinding noises.
The summer weather is on the way, and it’s a good time to ask yourself if the central air conditioning system in your home is ready for another round of heavy heat. It might be time to retire your AC and schedule installation with HVAC professionals who can help you pick a great new unit and have it quickly set up.
When it’s hot outside and you try to turn on your AC to get your house cooled down, only to find that the air conditioner won’t come on, you’ll know something is wrong right away. But the opposite situation is also a problem: when your air conditioner comes on… and it won’t turn off.
The modern air conditioner is a complex refrigeration device, so it’s understandable that many people aren’t sure of the ins and outs of how they operate. That’s why there are professionals to take care of them when they malfunction.
When you think about your cooling system options, a heat pump is likely not the first appliance to come to mind. However, if you are in the market for a new air conditioner before the warmer temperatures head our way, there are numerous benefits to utilizing a heat pump for your air conditioning system.
Now that it’s officially spring and we’re all looking forward to when the warm weather becomes a constant, air conditioning systems must receive special attention to prepare them for summer. We’ve recently written about the importance of scheduling annual spring maintenance for your home’s AC.
What is the most important component in a residential air conditioner? That’s tough to answer, because there are very few components in an AC that the system could do without.
Spring is the period when you should evaluate your home’s air conditioning system to see what sort of repairs and other services it may need so it will work at its best throughout the coming summer. But sometimes the best way to maximize your AC’s performance is to replace it.
