Since the current home heating and air conditioning systems do not come with intuitive voices designed to offer you assessments about their condition, you have to do the diagnosis yourself. This doesn’t mean that you have to be a trained HVAC expert to diagnose your HVAC system’s problem.
But a little knowledge of how the system works will go a long way in enabling you to know when the system is not working efficiently. In this article, we will tell you the most common signs of defects in your HVAC system.
Exceedingly High Energy Bills
If lately, you’ve started receiving extraordinarily high energy bills that you can’t explain, you need to check the condition of your heating and air conditioning systems. Although energy costs can fluctuate from time to time depending on your energy needs, they are not supposed to increase abruptly without any good reason. If you are using an older model of the HVAC system, it could be consuming more energy than it’s supposed to. So, you should have it checked by an HVAC specialist.
Irregular Temperatures
When temperatures in the house soar or dip, we rely on our heating and air conditioning systems to regulate the room temperature and keep us comfortable. But if your HVAC system is not working efficiently, you will receive fluctuating temperatures even when you have not adjusted your thermostat. For instance, if you set your thermostat to blow cold air, but instead, you get muggy, humid air, you need to have the system checked by a professional immediately.
Unpleasant Odor
If you notice an unpleasant odor coming from your HVAC system, the chances are that you are using an outdated system. Chemical odors, burning smells, and staleness in your HVAC system are signs of internal failings. For instance, if you smell sulfur or a smell of rotten eggs, your system probably has a gas supply problem. Therefore, you should call your HVAC system repair professional as soon as possible.
Leakage
If you notice unexplained drops or puddles of water in your house, most likely, they are from your leaking HVAC system. If left unchecked, leakages will have a devastating effect on your home.
Mysterious Noises
Although it’s normal for some HVAC systems to make a clicking sound, you should be concerned if your system starts to make loud banging, squeaking, whizzing, or clattering noises. Most of these noises indicate that your system needs repair, retrofit, or replacement.
They truly provide excellent service! There customer service is great and I appreciate how they do a clean job, they never leave messes. Highly recommended! 🙂
Highly recommend. When I had a problem on New Year's day, they were there in a flash. Have used them for over two years. From small maintenance to big jobs, they are good and they are fast.
My experience with this company was an absolute pleasure. I got quality service at a price I can afford. Will definitely use them again for all my plumbing needs..
We’ve been members with the company for a few years. They are very honest, and have made us a priority on many occasions. We used them in our previous home and current. Very knowledgeable, and we trust them. We never have a worry with our heating and cooling systems because we know they are meticulously maintained by 1-800-plumber. They show up almost immediately when we call for service, and go out of their way to make sure our systems are up and running. We highly recommend this company, and the prices for the work they do are the best around.
Don’t hesitate calling 1800plumbers. These guys are the best of the best. Especially Terry and John. They both did an amazing job and took their time to explain things to me. They went above and beyond. They showed up when they said they were going to show up and got straight to work right away. All I had to do was sit back and relax. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs a plumber
