There’s just one thing holding you back—and it’s something that has caused many homeowners to wonder if a heat pump will really do the job. You know that a heat pump is great at cooling down a home, since it works similarly to an air conditioner.

Watch Out for These Potential Heat Pump Problems
Monday, September 16th, 2024
Heat pumps are one of the best options available for homeowners when it comes to taking care of their comfort. A heat pump does the job of both cooling and heating a home, and it does so at greater efficiency than the more conventional method of pairing an AC and a furnace.
If you have a heat pump, all you have to do when the cold weather starts this year is adjust the thermostat to provide heat. Your heat pump will easily switch over to its heating mode, reversing the direction that it works so instead of moving heat out of your house, it will move heat into it. That’s it! But if your system doesn’t respond as expected, you may be facing a heat pump stuck in one mode, which often requires professional service.
But a heat pump can malfunction, just like any other piece of equipment. We want you to be aware that you may need heat pump repair in Perry, GA at some point, so we’re going to look at several potential heat pump issues.
Warning Sounds You May Hear From Your AC
Monday, September 2nd, 2024Air conditioning systems don’t run in complete silence, although advancing technology has made them quieter than ever. When the AC in your house is running, you’ll hear the whir of the fan motor and the hum of the compressor motor, the whoosh of air moving through the ductwork, occasional dripping from condensate moisture being removed from the system, and that’s about it.
If you do hear something different, or the AC is louder than normal, it’s sending you a sign that something is wrong. It may be a simple problem, or it may require you can call for expert HVAC service in Warner Robins, GA to diagnose the AC and see what needs to be fixed. Here is our guide to the common AC warning sounds to look out for.
Yikes! Why Are My AC Bills So High?
Monday, August 19th, 2024Unless you have an electric water heater or furnace, the air conditioner is the most electrically demanding indoor appliance in your house. When an AC switches to cooling mode, it can consume around 3.0 kilowatts per hour per hour. By comparison, just running a ceiling fan consumes 0.025–0.075 kilowatts per hour. When you have to run your AC regularly, you can expect to see an increase in your regular electric bills, especially if your AC runs too long too often.
But if you’ve had the same AC for several years, you’ll have an understanding of how much that increase will be during the summer. When that increase starts to seem abnormally high and you know you aren’t doing anything different with cooling your home, it’s something to pay attention to. You may need to schedule AC repair in Warner Robins, GA with our team. You might even need to consider replacing the air conditioner. In some cases, an oversized AC system can contribute to higher bills by cycling on and off too quickly, leading to wasted energy.
We’ll look into why an AC might become a massive power-draining below. This will help you know what you need to do to get those costs under control. Part of the solution may involve getting your AC prepped for warmer weather so it runs efficiently before summer’s peak.
Why might your AC bills be so high, and when should you call HVAC service?
- Clogged air filters: Restricted airflow forces your system to work harder and raises energy usage.
- Faulty thermostat: A malfunctioning thermostat may overwork your AC by running it too much or misreading temps.
- Refrigerant leaks: Low refrigerant makes your unit cool inefficiently and consume more power.
- Leaky air ducts: Escaping conditioned air means your AC runs longer to maintain comfort.
- Short-cycling: Frequent on-off cycling strains the system and uses excess energy.
- Aging AC unit: Systems over 10-15 years old lose efficiency, time for a check-up or service.
