What a gorgeous time of year in New England! The leaves are changing, the breezes are fresh and brisk, and the geese are flying by. But don’t get so caught up in the beauty of the season that you forget about your autumn to-do list. What should you be doing? Here’s a handy fall HVAC checklist that will help you ensure that your air conditioner is secured after the summer and that your heating system is ready to come on.
The kids are getting back to school. The days aren’t quite as hot. The air has that amazing crisp quality in the morning that you only get in autumn in New England. Does that mean that you can stop worrying about your air conditioner? Well, maybe, but maybe not. If your AC system needs repairs, you shouldn’t postpone them until spring. Even though the end of AC season is approaching, if you’ve got a concern about your system, get air conditioning repair in Boston, MA done ASAP.
Pets bring so much joy and positivity into our lives. They inspire us to be kinder people, to take more walks with our dogs, to revel in relaxation with our cats, and they even provide health benefits. Did you know that cats purr at a frequency that promotes physical healing? And simply petting a dog can reduce your levels of the stress hormone cortisol. But we all know that pets can cause trouble, too!
They can chew your shoes, do their business in unexpected places, keep you up at night, and cause you sudden and unexpected veterinary bills. But did you know that pets can damage your air conditioner? They can cause some issues that might surprise you. Here’s what we mean.
A suspicious or unpleasant smell in your home can be hard to ignore, especially when you walk in the door from outside and the odor assaults you. If that smell is coming from your air conditioner, you need the help of a qualified technician to get it sorted out. But what could cause an air conditioner to make a bad smell? What in the world is wrong? We’ll explain the most likely culprits.
When your air conditioner reaches the end of its life, you need to be prepared, or you could get caught in a heat wave with a broken-down cooling system. If your AC needs repair now, at the start of summer, should you get that done, or should you get a new air conditioner? Is your old AC unit still worth fixing?
There’s not a simple, black-and-white answer to that question. There are a few different variables you should take into account before you decide whether to pay for that repair your air conditioner needs or invest in a new AC system instead. Here are the things to consider.
Annual maintenance for your air conditioner makes a huge difference in a lot of ways. It improves how well the system works, keeping you more comfortable. It restores the system’s efficiency, which drops over the course of a year’s hard work. It can keep your air conditioner under warranty for longer, and even keep it running for more summers than it would otherwise survive.
One of the most impressive things maintenance can accomplish is reducing the need for AC repair. It can cut the likelihood—by 85%!—that you’ll need to have your air conditioner repaired over the course of the summer. How exactly does AC maintenance help you avoid the problems that would require AC repair? We’ll tell you all about it.
How wise of you to get your air conditioner installation scheduled for this spring. Once the heat does hit, you’ll be all set, enjoying the plentiful, efficient coolness of your new system all summer long. But do you know what to expect during your installation appointment?
If it’s been quite a while since you’ve gone through this process, or if you’ve never had an air conditioner installed, you might be curious or worried about this upcoming appointment. We’ll tell you everything you need to know: how long AC installation takes, what the process entails, and how to make sure it goes perfectly smoothly. If you have any questions about what to expect during air conditioning installation in Boston, MA, we’re always happy to supply answers.
You’re probably pretty good at spotting the signs when a person isn’t feeling well. Coughing, sniffling, fever, stomach symptoms, aches, and pains can be pretty obvious. And of course, most people are able to describe how they’re feeling.
But your air conditioner can’t tell you what’s wrong, can it? You have to be able to spot the symptoms of AC problems. One of the best ways to do this is with your ears. Listen for these telltale sounds.
It’s been about fifty years since most newly-constructed homes in the US started to be built with ductwork to accommodate the central air conditioners which were becoming so popular. But these systems were a little slower to catch on in northern regions which were less dependent upon air conditioning, and in New England in particular, many of our houses have been standing for much longer than fifty years. If you want to install a central air conditioner in your home, you might encounter some challenges. High velocity AC systems might provide the solution.
Air conditioner issues, especially when they happen during a heat wave, are extremely unpleasant. When an AC unit starts acting up, the first thing you’ll worry is that it’s going to break down completely and leave you sweltering. In some cases, getting an immediate repair can mean the difference between continuing to have air conditioning and having to replace the unit entirely. But how do you know whether your problem is one of those cases? We’ll give you some pointers to help gauge when an AC issue calls for emergency repair, and when you can safely wait for a scheduled appointment.
