Helpful advice for homeowners in Jasper, Dubois, and Troy, IN Central AC system are sources of beauty. They have but one purpose for existence: to provide added comfort during the warm and hot weather months.
Still, that’s a pretty big job. And so, we place a greater value on a well-functioning ce
ntral A/C than we often realize…until, that is, something goes wrong. The surest – but not the only!- sign that your system is not working properly is when it stops working at all.
But what about the other warning signs that indicate your system needs professional attention or that perhaps it’s time to replace it with a new and more energy efficient model?
Here’s what to look for:
- If your air conditioner is more than 10 years old, it is likely working ineffectively and inefficiently, and should be replaced with a more energy-efficient model. Older air conditioners typically mean higher energy bills.
- If your air conditioner needs frequent repairs it may not be properly suited for your home. You need a heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) specialist to assess your current system.
- If your cooling bills continue to rise, that’s another sign of inefficient operation. The lower energy costs that would come from a new system would help to defray some its cost.
- If some of the rooms in your home are either too hot or too cold, it could be your air conditioning equipment malfunctioning or functioning inefficiently, or it could be a result of problems with your ducts or inadequate insulation. It’s at least worth having an air conditioning professional come in and assess the problem
- If you have problems with humidity, your air conditioning equipment may be defective or otherwise performing inadequately…or, you may have leaky ductwork.
- If your air conditioning system is noisy or noisier than usual, there may be a problem with its indoor coil, or your duct system may be too small.
The best way to prevent problems is through annual preventive maintenance service.
