Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most common questions we get asked by clients:
1. What does HVAC stand for?
HVAC stands for "heating, ventilation and air conditioning." It covers the equipment and areas that we can repair and install.
2. When should I have my HVAC equipment serviced?
We recommend serving your heating and cooling equipment before winter and before summer. You don't want to be stuck in a heat wave with a broken AC system.
3. How often should I replace my air filters?
You should replace your filters every one to three months depending on how much you use them.
4. How important is my indoor air quality?
Indoor air quality is extremely important. You don't want to be breathing in pollutants and dust. Keep your family happy and healthy with regular service on your air filters and HVAC system.
5. Will a ceiling fan keep my air conditioning from running as much?
No. Ceiling fans stir the air around to make you feel more comfortable, but they don't actually lower the temperature of your house. What it can do is make the room comfortable enough for you to warrant turning up the thermostat.
6. What can I do to lower my energy bills?
Some steps you can take to lower your electricity bills include installing programmable thermostat, switching from fluorescent lightbulbs to LEDs, installing ceiling fans, unplugging appliances when not in use and making sure your windows and doors are properly sealed.
7. Why is my air conditioner running but not cooling my home?
If your air conditioner is running but not cooling your home, there could be several underlying issues. Common causes include a dirty air filter, low refrigerant, frozen evaporator coils, blocked condenser units, or a malfunctioning thermostat. If adjusting your thermostat and replacing your air filter doesn't solve the problem, professional AC repair can help identify and resolve the issue.
8. How do I know if I need AC repair or a complete air conditioning replacement?
If your air conditioner frequently breaks down, struggles to maintain comfortable temperatures, or causes unusually high energy bills, it may be time to consider a replacement. Older systems can become less efficient and more expensive to maintain. A professional HVAC technician can inspect your equipment and help determine whether repairing or replacing your air conditioning system is the better investment.
9. How long does a typical HVAC system last?
Most HVAC systems last approximately 10 to 20 years, depending on the equipment type, usage, installation quality, and maintenance history. Regular HVAC maintenance can help extend the lifespan of your heating and cooling equipment. If your system is aging or experiencing frequent problems, scheduling an inspection can help you plan for a replacement.
10. Why is my furnace blowing cold air instead of warm air?
A furnace blowing cold air can indicate several problems, including thermostat settings, a dirty air filter, pilot light issues, or a malfunctioning heating component. Restricted airflow can also cause certain furnaces to overheat and shut off their burners. If your heating system continues blowing cold air, professional furnace repair can help restore reliable heating.
