Summers are long in our area, and your air conditioner worked very hard all throughout the many hot months. It’s finally time to let it take a break and rest during the next few months. But if you want to be sure it’ll be in good shape when you need it for springtime, there are some important steps you should take now.
What does your AC system need at the end of the season? Here are our best tips on how to properly retire your air conditioner so it will be safe all winter and ready to go when the summer heat hits again.
As we move toward the season when you’ll start to need your furnace again, there are different things you need to be aware of and pay attention to. One of those things is a job for your nose. Is your furnace causing any odors? If there’s a smell in your home when you use your heating system, is there a serious problem? Maybe, but maybe not. Here’s how to figure it out.
Of course, we’re happy to provide heater repair whenever it is needed. In fact, we have emergency technicians on-call seven days a week to make sure that no emergency is overlooked, and all of our neighbors are able to keep the heat on during the winter.
But we also believe it’s nicer for our customers to avoid having those heating problems as much as possible! So we’ve got some helpful information for you. Here are our top tips for keeping your heating system happy. Follow these, and you’ll be much less likely to need heating repairs this winter.
Do you hear a strange noise? Or perhaps you’ve detected an odd odor? Maybe you’re just not happy with the performance of your air conditioner now, at the end of a long summer of Florida heat. But the summer is ending. You won’t be requiring so much from that air conditioner. Is it worth it to have AC repairs done now, at the end of the season, or can you put that off until next spring? Here’s our advice.
Your HVAC system is like the heart and lungs of your home. If you needed help with asthma or a cardiac condition, you wouldn’t go see just anyone, would you? You’d make sure they were a licensed medical professional. You’d go further than that—you’d insist on seeing a specialist. Why should your home’s heart and lungs be any different?
Many people have a little bit of knowledge about heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. Some people even have extensive experience with general building maintenance. But your HVAC system deserves qualified HVAC professionals. How can you tell if a company will be the great HVAC contractor you need? Here’s what to look for.
Sometimes, the reason why an air conditioner struggles or breaks down are straightforward and simple and make perfect sense. Layers of dust caused overheating, as though the air conditioner was wearing a sweater in July. Lack of lubrication between moving parts caused friction and wear and tear. The vibration of the system caused a screw to work itself loose. Logical, right?
Sometimes, air conditioner problems have much more unusual causes. What kind of strange, surprising things can create major problems for your AC system? We’ve got some weird ones to share with you!
Air conditioners have two units that work together as a team to provide the cooling power your home requires: the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. In your home, you’re more likely to notice what’s going on with the air conditioner. And you’re less likely to allow the indoor unit to get covered with mess such as lawn clippings! The outdoor unit might be a little neglected in comparison.
We’d like to remedy that neglect today. We’re going to focus entirely on the outdoor unit for a moment. What’s so important about the AC outdoor unit? What should you be doing to keep it in good condition? We’ve got all the info you need.
Many homeowners enjoy doing DIY projects and putting their own personal touch on their homes. And with the incredibly wide range of how-to videos available online, it’s easy to learn new skills! It’s great if you can give your kitchen a facelift with new cupboard door handles or brighten up your child’s room with a fresh coat of paint.
But there are some things you really shouldn’t try to do yourself. When it comes to your HVAC system, take a step back and let someone else handle your installation, maintenance, and repair needs. Why do you need a professional for heating and AC repair? There are many reasons. We’ll cover the most important ones here.
When you know—or even just suspect—that something is wrong with your air conditioner, it can be tempting to wait and see. Will it be okay for a while longer, so you don’t have to worry about repairs right away? Will it somehow magically fix itself? No! Don’t postpone AC repair. Having a technician check out any air conditioning problems as soon as possible will make a big difference. Here’s what we mean.
Air conditioners can be a little bit finicky. And if something goes wrong, you might not realize at first. One way you might notice a clue that there’s a problem with your air conditioner is with your nose. It’s true! Your air conditioner should not make any odors. If you’ve got a smelly AC, it needs to be repaired. What smells can happen? What do they mean? We’ll tell you.
