If you keep up with our blog, you’ll notice we have the occasional post on AC repair troubleshooting, as if air conditioner problems were something you needed to be mindful of every single day. Of course, that’s how it is for us, as we see AC repair problems on a daily basis throughout hundreds of homes in our service area.
But what about for an individual air conditioner like your own? Honestly, it shouldn’t be needing repairs all that often. Even one repair per year is something that should raise some eyebrows. Here’s what you should do if your AC is frequently needing repairs:
Sure, your air conditioner and your car are both expensive machines that you invested a lot of money in… But the similarities between them go far beyond that. They’re both machines that need consistent care and attention if you want them to live up to their potential.
Ductless air conditioning this… Ductless air conditioning that… It seems like everyone only has good things to say about ductless air conditioners. But come on, are they really that special? Are they really everything they’re chalked up to be?
If you’ve made it through the years in Panama City without any form of air conditioning, then we have to give you credit. Other parts of the nation may consider air conditioning a luxury, but there’s no shame in getting one here in Florida.
We’ve just hit that time of year where our HVAC systems are finally going to be taking a break. It’s not cold enough for our heaters, but it’s not warm enough yet to be running the air conditioning.
You may have heard of smart thermostats, but maybe you’re left wondering why these ones are so great. And what does that make your current thermostat? A dumb thermostat?
Some homes have a monster inside them, and it’s responsible for eating up all the cooling energy. The cost to feed this monster can cost more than a quarter of your energy expenses. Worst of all, it never stops eating.
As the old cliché goes, “it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity.” Here in Florida, we know plenty about humidity. We mostly just have to live with it, but that doesn’t mean it’s not uncomfortable. After all, the reason that humidity is uncomfortable is because of how it impedes our body’s ability to sweat, thus impacting its ability to cool down.
It’s nice to know what problems can appear in your air conditioner so that you know what to look out for. What’s even better is knowing what to do after you find the problem!
