When to Call a Professional for AC Repair

Keeping your air conditioner maintained throughout the year is the best way to avoid malfunctions and breakdowns. After years of use, you will likely run into trouble that needs to be repaired. Knowing when to call a professional for AC repair will help you avoid further damage to the unit, maintain your warranty and prevent personal injury.


You should call a professional for: 


  • Inadequate Cooling - If your AC is blowing warm air, it might be a sign of a refrigerant leak or a malfunctioning compressor.
  • Strange Noises - If you hear grinding, squealing or rattling while your AC is running, there may be loose or damaged internal components that need to be replaced.
  • Poor Airflow - If there isn't enough airflow from your vents, it could be due to a clogged filter, blocked air ducts or a malfunctioning blower motor.
  • Frequent Cycling - Short cycling (when the AC turns on and off frequently) can indicate refrigerant leaks or issues with the thermostat or electrical components.
  • Unusual Odors - Foul or musty odors coming from your AC system could be a sign of mold or mildew growth in the air ducts or on the unit.

Benefits of Regular AC Tune-Ups

The last thing you want to deal with in the middle of summer is a broken air conditioner. Scheduling regular tune-ups can help avoid problems for reliable cooling all summer long.


With regular tune-ups, you can enjoy:


  • Improved Efficiency - When your AC is running properly, it won't have to work as hard to maintain the indoor temperature. Improved performance means greater energy efficiency and greater monthly savings.
  • Extended Lifespan - Making the most of your AC starts with regular service to catch and repair underlying problems. Routine upkeep will help you avoid major repairs and premature replacements.
  • Enhanced Comfort - A well-maintained AC provides consistent cooling and better indoor air quality for maximum home comfort.
  • Preventive Measures - Tune-ups are the easiest way to know how your AC is performing and prevent unexpected breakdowns during peak seasons.

HVAC Maintenance FAQS

  • Can air conditioner help with humidity control?

    Yes, an air conditioner can help with humidity control. As it cools the air, it also removes moisture through the process of condensation. The evaporator coil cools the warm air, causing humidity to condense and drain away. This reduces indoor humidity levels, making the environment more comfortable. Some air conditioners have specific settings or features designed for better humidity control. Maintaining your air conditioner and ensuring proper sizing can optimize its dehumidifying capabilities, improving overall indoor air quality.

  • What is the SEER rating, and why is it important?

    The SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating measures the efficiency of an air conditioner over a typical cooling season. It is calculated by dividing the cooling output (in BTUs) by the total energy consumed (in watt-hours). A higher SEER rating indicates greater energy efficiency, leading to lower utility bills and reduced environmental impact. Choosing an air conditioner with a high SEER rating can provide better performance, cost savings, and compliance with modern energy efficiency standards, making it an important factor in selecting an AC unit.

  • How much does AC service typically cost?

    The cost of AC service typically ranges from $75 to $200, depending on the level of service and your location. Basic maintenance, such as checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, and inspecting electrical components, usually falls on the lower end of the scale. If additional repairs or parts are needed, the cost can increase. Regular servicing helps prevent costly breakdowns, improves efficiency, and extends the lifespan of your AC unit, making it a worthwhile investment. Always get a detailed estimate before the service begins.
