Even though we\u2019re still in early spring, balmy daytime and evening temperatures will be here soon enough. In other words, it\u2019s time to switch over from heating to air conditioning. And yes, it can be incredibly frustrating when you want to turn on your air conditioner, and it doesn\u2019t work. There are some common reasons for HVAC failure and why this could happen. Here\u2019s what to look for.<\/p>\n
Air conditioning failures frequently occur when your system is turned on for the first time after a long break. It could be anything from a broken thermostat or leaking refrigerant to a tripped circuit breaker. Why wait to find out if your system has a problem? With any complex system, your HVAC consists of a wide variety of components that all must function smoothly for it to perform efficiently.<\/p>\n
HVAC filters can get dirty very quickly in Arizona\u2019s climate. One study showed 29% of homeowners never change their air filters. High pollution arising from fireplaces and winter air inversions can kick up enough particulates to clog your system. This will result in your system running longer, increasing your energy consumption. It will also increase family allergies, and even lead to a full-on system failure. Filters are inexpensive and easy to install.<\/p>\n
In fact, keeping your filter clean can reduce electricity usage up to 15 percent. In the Valley of the Sun, it\u2019s recommended that you replace your filter at least every three months, even more frequently if you have pets that shed or have family members with allergies or asthma in your home.<\/p>\n
HVAC systems tend to get clogged over time. This is particularly true for those with outside condensers. Clogs happen when dirt, leaves, and other debris build up in the drain pan and around the unit. When an air conditioner doesn\u2019t drain properly, it can impede water flow, causing mold and mildew to grow inside the condenser hose impacting your home\u2019s indoor air quality.<\/p>\n
A seasonal maintenance tune up isn\u2019t just a good idea. It\u2019s a necessity for keeping your HVAC system optimally performing. It\u2019s usually also a requirement for maintaining your HVAC system\u2019s warranty.
