As the sweltering heat of summer approaches, the importance of a well-functioning air conditioning system cannot be overstated. HVAC systems help maintain indoor comfort during extreme weather conditions, but they require regular maintenance and proper care to function efficiently, much like any complex machinery.
We had a main line drain clog under the house. Russell was our technician and approached the problem from outside the house, working retrograde from a trap in the front yard. I was skeptical but it worked when my efforts with a cable inside the house had failed. He was very professional and pleasant to deal with. We asked him to install a cleanout closer to the house for future use and we were very satisfied with the work.
Tyler is the best! He came to our parent's house, knew exactly what the problem was, and explained it to us without the typical guesswork. I'd recommend him any time you need a good plumber.
Overall, It was a very good experience with the Service Hero team. I was able to schedule an appointment late in the night. They are truly 24x7. The help desk team was very professional, courteous, and friendly. All responses were timely. The field technician showed up on time and diagnosed the issue accurately. Kudos to the Service Hero team!
Neglecting these responsibilities can lead to reduced performance, higher energy bills, and even complete system failures. In this brief article brought to you by Service Hero, we help you ensure your air conditioner runs smoothly throughout the summer.
Air filters play a pivotal role in maintaining indoor air quality and the overall efficiency of your HVAC system. Over time, these filters can become clogged with dust, pollen, and other particulates, effectively restricting airflow and forcing the system to work harder.
Tailored services to meet your specific needs and budget, ensuring optimal performance and comfort.
It is recommended to check your air filters every month during the peak cooling season and replace or clean them as necessary. For most systems, this means replacing the filters every 2 to 3 months. High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, which can capture smaller particles, may need to be replaced more frequently.
The condenser coils found in the outdoor unit of your air conditioner are responsible for releasing the heat absorbed from your home’s interior. Over time, dirt and debris built up on these coils can reduce the unit’s efficiency.
It is advisable to inspect the coils at least once a year and clean them as needed. Be sure to turn off the power to the unit before performing any cleaning to avoid damage or injury.
The evaporator coil, found within the indoor unit, absorbs heat from the air in your home. Like the condenser coils, it can also accumulate dirt and reduce efficiency. Inspect and clean the evaporator coil annually to help maintain optimal performance.
Property owners typically leave this work to professional HVAC technicians since accessing and cleaning the evaporator coil can be more complex than cleaning the condenser coils.
For optimal performance, your air conditioner’s outdoor unit needs ample space to breathe. Make sure there are no obstructions such as plants, debris, or other objects within a two-foot radius around the unit. Trim any overgrown vegetation and regularly clear away leaves or other debris that may have accumulated. This allows for proper airflow and reduces the strain on your system.
Leaky ducts can significantly impact the efficiency of your HVAC system by causing cool air to escape and warm air to enter. This not only reduces comfort but also increases energy consumption and costs.
Inspect your ductwork for any visible leaks or damage, and seal them using duct tape or mastic sealant. Professional duct sealing services can provide a more thorough and permanent solution, ensuring your system operates efficiently.
While many maintenance tasks can be performed by homeowners, certain aspects of HVAC care require professional expertise. Scheduling an annual maintenance visit from a qualified HVAC technician can help identify and address potential issues before they become major problems.
