Continue reading to learn how you can prevent HVAC failures from happening.
Warning Signs
Many HVAC problems aren’t caused by a sudden break in a component; instead, they develop slowly and worsen over time. You need to be aware, remain attentive, and contact a professional if you notice one of these common signs of an HVAC problem:
- Reduced airflow
- Foul smells from the units
- Loud noises inside the units
- Increased humidity
- Short-cycling
- Leaks
- Uneven heating or cooling
Clogging
Air filter clogs are one of the most common HVAC issues in Las Vegas. The filter is the barrier that collects all the dust particles and many other contaminants the system draws in. A clean filter prevents them from entering your ducts and rooms. Over time, these particulates accumulate on the filter and start to block the airflow. As a result, you will notice a significant change in the efficiency of your home’s heating or cooling.
You can avoid this scenario by regularly changing the air filters. Clean filters increase efficiency since they allow air to pass freely. They also trap all unwanted particles like dust to improve indoor air quality so you can breathe more easily. Our technicians can change the filters during the annual maintenance checks but will advise you on how often you need to change them.
Our team also checks for blockages and leaks in the ducts that may hinder the smooth flow of the heated or cooled air. This is also important because the leaks allow conditioned air to escape.
Refrigerant Leaks
The refrigerant is the substance that helps cool your home when your AC is on. It does this by absorbing the heat in the air, thus dropping its temperature. Over time, it may begin leaking, causing a pool of water below the unit. The more it leaks, the harder your air conditioning will work to provide the required cool environment. Eventually, you will have higher energy bills, and your AC will malfunction.
You can prevent this problem by scheduling maintenance appointments. These sessions allow our experts to identify and fix the problem early enough before it worsens. It is essential that you immediately contact our experts if the situation does arise. Our technicians will seal the hole to ensure the liquid does not leak and replace the lost amount of fluid. Do not try to complete this repair yourself since refrigerant is toxic to people and pets.
Malfunctioning Thermostat
The thermostat is the control device that helps you set your preferred indoor temperature. It regulates the heater and AC so you can enjoy comfort despite the outdoor environment. Therefore, you want it to be functioning optimally at all times. You can identify an issue with your thermostat when the indoor temperature does not match what you set or when there are constant fluctuations. This can cause significant inconvenience, especially during a hot Las Vegas summer.
Therefore, you need to constantly check for any change in operation and contact our [company name] pros. We also recommend investing in a programmable thermostat that adjusts the temperatures according to a set schedule. This will help you regulate your indoor environment without constantly touching the thermostat. These modern thermostats also make it easier to know when there is a problem. They have Bluetooth connectivity and can alert you on your phone if there are issues.
Blower Motor Problems
As the name suggests, the blower motor blows air into the vents, thus facilitating air circulation. Therefore, when it breaks down, it affects the entire HVAC system. The most common causes of such a breakdown are the electrical supply or a broken belt. Power surges, short-circuiting, or loose wires may disrupt the power supply, causing a malfunction. The belt may also wear out or detach and keep the motor from working.
Due to the complexity of this problem, we advise our clients only to call professional technicians to check their HVAC system. When we arrive, we inspect and repair any faulty wiring and reinstall the broken belt.
Electrical Issues
HVAC systems use electricity to function, and any electrical fault may interfere with its proper operation. Our technicians frequently encounter problems such as loose wiring, blown-out fuses, or electrical surges. Improper installation may also lead to electrical issues, especially when someone connects the wrong wires or leaves some parts disconnected. This poses a massive risk to the units and the entire home’s wiring.
To avoid this situation, you should contact the trained professionals at BEST Air Conditioning Plumbing Repair for expert repair services to fix all the above problems and get your system back on track.
Lack of Maintenance
All HVAC systems require regular maintenance to keep them operating at peak performance for their whole life span. When you skip these sessions, you increase the chances that your system will develop significant problems.
Our [company name] technicians constantly remind our clients to schedule annual appointments for their HVAC units. These are the prime moments to check for minor issues and correct them before they magnify. Therefore, skipping them may result in major future breakdowns that cause discomfort and consume time and money. During a maintenance appointment, we clean all dirty parts, change filters, oil moving parts, and fix any minor issues. We thoroughly inspect the entire system, including all the following parts:
- Filters
- Wiring
- Refrigerant
- Motors
- Thermostat
- Compressor
