There is no HVAC system capable of functioning optimally all year round without periodic maintenance or repairs. A good air conditioning repair service is not only necessary, but compulsory for a well-functioning HVAC system.
The idea life span of an HVAC unit can be anywhere between 12+ years, as long as it is cared for properly. An HVAC system needs regular maintenance checks in order to continue functioning efficiently.
Over long-term use, old air conditioning units have the potential to raise costs in terms of electricity bills. Brand new systems are likely to be far more efficient than those that have been in use for years.
There are various different types of air conditioning units available today, but maintenance is a necessity for smooth functioning with any unit, preferably with change in season. If your are an MVP member, we will come out once a year to ensure your entire HVAC system is working properly during one visit.
HVAC filters need to be cleaned and/or changed regularly, since they tend to attract and hold debris and dust, which are likely to spread allergens around the house. If changing the filters doesn’t seem to fix the problem, it may be time to change the unit altogether.
The answer to this depends on the number of family members. If the HVAC unit is working overtime to try and meet heavier air conditioning demands than it’s designed to handle, it will start to act up and cause issues
There are 3 signs to look for:
* Air conditioner has reached the end of it’s lifespan- An air conditioner lives 15 years on average.
* Runs inefficiently- if your system takes forever to cool your home and you have higher energy bills, it may be time to replace it.
* Requires frequent and expensive repairs- if your system needs expensive repairs every year, it would make economical sense to just get a new one
No. A ceiling fan don’t actually lower the temperature in your home; it only makes you feel cooler in the room where the fan is through the wind-chill effect. However, running your ceiling fan does allow you to turn your thermostat temperature setting up 4 degrees without feeling uncomfortable. This will help you lower your electricity bills.
First and foremost, make sure you get a programmable thermostat that’s compatible with your heating and cooling system.There are different models for different systems (straight air conditioning, single-stage heat pumps, etc).After you know what model to get, get a programmable thermostat with the scheduling options you want:
* 5+2-day model: Least flexible model. Can set 2 temperature schedules: one for the weekdays and one for the weekend.
* 5-1-1-day model: More flexible than 5+2. Can set three temperature schedules: one for the weekdays, one for Saturday, and another for Sunday.
* 7-day-model: Most flexible model. Can set a temperature schedule for every day of the week.
