Signs Your HVAC System Needs Attention
Pay attention to these indicators that suggest your AC or heating system may need professional service:
Subtle Signs You Need AC Repair:
- AC Is Blowing Hot Air: This is a clear sign of a malfunction, potentially due to a dirty coil, low refrigerant, or a faulty compressor.
- Low Air Volume: Weak airflow from vents can indicate obstructions like dirty coils, clogged ducts, or a struggling fan motor.
- Loud Noises: Hissing (refrigerant leak), humming/buzzing (electrical issues), screeching (bad bearings), or rattling (loose parts) all signal a need for immediate attention.
- Your Home Is Muggy: A significant increase in indoor humidity suggests low refrigerant or a dirty evaporator coil, impacting the AC’s dehumidification capabilities.
- Climbing Electric Bills: A steady increase in energy consumption without new appliance additions indicates your system is working harder than it should, possibly due to a refrigerant leak, sensor issue, or failing compressor.
- Unusual Cooling Cycles: Systems that run for excessively long periods or cycle on and off too frequently are showing signs of distress.
Signs You Need A New AC Installation:
- Your AC Could Be Considered an Adult: Systems typically last 8-12 years. If yours is nearing or exceeding this lifespan, it’s more prone to costly repairs and breakdowns.
- You Have Repeated Repairs: A pattern of frequent repairs, especially in the last two years of service, often indicates that replacement is more cost-effective than continued repairs.
- Poor Indoor Air Quality: Aging systems can recirculate dust and allergens and are less effective at dehumidifying, leading to reduced air quality and more frequent filter changes.
- Your System Uses R22 Refrigerant: Refrigerant R22 has been phased out, making repairs and maintenance prohibitively expensive. If your unit was manufactured before 2010, it likely uses R22 and is nearing the end of its viable service life.
