Fall is coming up, but that does not mean now is the time to forget about your AC system. This is especially true if you seem to be having problems with your air conditioner. In fact, if you’ve had your cooling system for a long time and you are starting to notice that it is having consistent trouble, you may need to start preparing for something more than just repairs.
No one wants to have to replace their air conditioner. But the reality is that one day you will have to get rid of your old system and have a newer, more efficient one installed. How do you know the time has come for your AC? Watch out for these indicators.
Have you ever been driving in your car and heard a noise that made you go, “Well that’s not good.” The sounds we hear tell us a lot about our world, such as warning us when there is trouble. Similar to concerning noises from your car, there may be noises that you hear from your AC that give you pause.
It is frustrating to discover that you can’t keep your home comfortable on a hot day. You have a central AC or heat pump specifically because you want to be able to keep your home cool when temperatures outside are too high. It makes sense that you’d feel upset when this system fails you.
After spending days or weeks on end cooped up indoors with the AC running, you may notice that the air in the house gets a little stale. You aren’t imagining this sensation: overly filtered air can be uncomfortable, even if it is cool. Logic says that you can solve this issue by opening a window and letting some fresh air in—but if the air outside is swelteringly hot and humid, doing so can ruin your comfort.
Summer is here! This means more time spent by the community pool, longer nights spent with friends on the porch, and more hours spent outdoors enjoying the warmer weather. One thing that can ruin your enjoyment of the summer season though is an air conditioner that isn’t working properly.
It wouldn’t make sense to try to drive your car without a steering wheel. There would be no way to control it, let alone direct the heading it would go. The same idea can be applied to your HVAC system: without the thermostat, you can’t tell your air conditioner when to turn on, how long to run, or what temperature you are shooting for.
There are plenty of different parts that play a vital role in the operation of your air conditioner. While some parts are a bit more vital to the system, there are others that end up being undervalued for the role they play. We find that the air filter is often in this underestimated category.
Are you fed up with the warm airflow of your air conditioner? Is your bank breaking with the constant visits of the repairing team?
