When to Call for Air Conditioning Repairs

Not everyone can be an expert in our field! Do you know what to look for when trying to decide if you need to call our team for repairs?

Call us if you notice any of the following issues:

Strange noises: Grinding, squealing, or banging sounds signal internal problems.
Weak airflow: Is the breeze barely blowing? Blocked filters, ductwork issues, or bigger problems could be the culprit.
Warm air: Are you getting blasts of warm air despite a low thermostat setting? This can indicate issues with your compressor or refrigerant.
Frequent cycling: Your AC has a normal rhythm. If it's turning on and off too often, it's struggling.
High humidity: Your AC should battle mugginess indoors. If it's losing the fight, a repair is needed to restore comfort.
Water leaks: Any leaks around your AC unit are a red flag. This could cause damage–call our professionals ASAP.
Unpleasant odors: Musty or burning smells mean something's wrong. Schedule an inspection to prevent issues from getting worse and keep your air healthy.

What Happens If You Neglect AC Repairs?

Leaving your AC in disrepair can cause a number of issues, jeopardizing your comfort, driving up costs, and even posing safety risks.

We've seen firsthand the consequences of neglect and strongly advise against delaying repairs for several reasons:

Decreased efficiency: An AC unit in need of repair works harder to cool your home, leading to increased energy consumption and higher utility bills. Over time, this inefficiency can strain the system, causing more significant and costly issues.
Poor air quality: A malfunctioning AC can circulate dust, pollen, and other allergens throughout your home, affecting the air quality and potentially causing health issues, especially for those with allergies or respiratory conditions.
Increased wear and tear: Neglecting minor repairs can lead to more severe damage to your AC system. Continuous operation without proper maintenance can shorten the lifespan of your unit, necessitating an earlier replacement.
Water damage: Issues like a clogged condensation line can cause water to leak from your AC unit, leading to potential water damage in your home. This not only requires repairs to the AC system but may also necessitate costly repairs to your property.
Safety risks: In some cases, neglecting AC repairs can pose safety risks. For example, electrical issues could lead to a fire hazard, putting your home and family in danger.

We understand the temptation to postpone AC repairs, especially when your system is still running. However, we also know that early detection and repairs can save you money, extend the life of your AC unit, and keep your home a safe, comfortable refuge from the heat of the outdoors. If you're experiencing any issues with your AC, contact us right away. Don't wait until a minor inconvenience becomes a significant problem.

Tips to Avoid the Need for AC Repairs

Prevention is key when it comes to maintaining your air conditioning system and avoiding unnecessary repairs. At Climatemakers of VA, we believe in equipping our clients with the knowledge to help keep their AC units running smoothly for as long as possible.

Here are some essential tips to help prevent the common causes of breakdowns:

Regular maintenance checks: During maintenance visits, our team can catch and resolve minor issues before they escalate into major problems. Our certified technicians can keep your system operating efficiently and address any potential concerns promptly.
Change filters regularly: One of the simplest yet most effective ways to maintain your AC's efficiency is to change the air filters regularly. A clean filter supports healthy air quality and airflow, thereby reducing the strain on your unit.

Keep the area around the unit clear: Ensure the external component of your AC unit is free from debris, plants, and other obstructions. A clear area allows for optimal airflow and reduces the risk of overheating.
Be mindful of thermostat settings: Avoid setting your thermostat to extremely low temperatures. Keeping it at a reasonable setting gives your system a break, preventing wear and tear.
Utilize ceiling fans: Ceiling fans can circulate air throughout your home, reducing the workload on your AC system.
Seal windows and doors: Ensuring that windows and doors are properly sealed can help your system maintain your desired temperature, preventing your AC from working overtime to cool your space.

At Climatemakers of VA, we're committed to your comfort. By following our tips, you can extend the life and efficiency of your AC system, saving you money overall.
