Your air conditioner is the unsung hero of the summer. Hot, humid days are no match for its ability to cool and dehumidify the air in your home. Until it breaks down, that is. Then, your home becomes worse than the deepest, darkest jungle and all you can do is call for emergency air conditioning repair.
Don’t run your A/C unit until it breaks. Having it professionally serviced every spring is a great way to make sure you can enjoy the summer without an uncomfortably hot, steamy house. Not only will you have a more comfortable home, you’ll also save big money operating the air conditioner. Dust and other debris builds up in the unit and causes it to work harder to cool your home. The result is a high energy bill and a shortened life for your air conditioner.
Hot Point Heating and Air Conditioning provides routine maintenance on air conditioners throughout Waukesha County. Not only are our A/C tune ups done at flat rates, they also come with an HVAC maintenance guarantee. You have nothing to lose getting your air conditioner serviced by Hot Point unless you like sticking to the couch.
Air conditioners, like any other piece of technology, have seen huge developmental strides in effectiveness and energy efficiency over the last couple decades. Every day we run into several different types of air conditioners, including the following (among others):
Regardless of what kind of unit is doing the cooling, we know how it works and how to get it up and running again when it's malfunctioning.
When your air conditioner isn't working right, it might not take a professional HVAC technician to get your unit back up and running. Some of the most common AC problems may be solved (or preferably, prevented) with some simple DIY solutions like replacing the filter, clearing away debris and dirt, and unclogging the drain line.
Many people think there’s really no point maintaining an air conditioner. Hot Point Heating and Air Conditioning strongly disagrees. Just like you wouldn’t drive your car for 10,000 miles without changing the oil, you shouldn’t run your A/C unit for hundreds of hours without regular maintenance.
Neglecting routine maintenance leads to decreasing performance, higher energy bills and, eventually, an unexpected system failure, like the whole A/C unit freezing up. Cleaning the filters, fins and coils on your AC is the bare minimum maintenance necessary to keep it operating efficiently. Clean any built up debris in the coils and replace the filters regularly. If you have pets in your home, you should check the filter often, as shedding animals will cause them to clog quickly.
Complete maintenance of your air conditioner includes checking the refrigerant levels, measuring the amount of airflow through the coils, testing the system for any leaks and oiling moving parts. These tune up procedures are not something a homeowner should attempt. The trained, experienced HVAC technicians at Hot Point Heating and Air Conditioning have the skill and equipment required to perform thorough system checks and repairs.
Some companies will go to extraordinary lengths to cheat you out of a few bucks. When you invite an HVAC air conditioning repair technician into your home, you need to be sure they are reputable and won't pull any sales tricks on you.
Be aware of some of the most common air conditioner repair scams shady HVAC specialists will try to use against you. The best ways to ensure you aren't getting scammed is to employ only the highest rated and lisenced contractors and always get multiple quotes.
If you want to do more than just clean your A/C unit’s filters and coils, be very careful. You may permanently damage the air conditioner or even break the law. Here is just a small list of things you absolutely should never do when attempting to fix your AC:
The level of refrigerant must be precisely measured and having too much can be just as bad as having too little.
Any refrigerant removed from the system must be collected. Releasing it into the atmosphere is illegal.
The fins on your air conditioner’s fan are extremely delicate. Bending them is very easy and can cause your AC to stop working.
Removing a dirty AC filter will increase air flow, which is good, but all the dirt and debris the filter was catching will now build up on your coils, which is very, very bad.
When it comes to maintaining your air conditioner, you should change the filter regularly and gently dust the coils and fins. Leave the rest to the trained professionals at Hot Point Heating and Air Conditioning and you can count on years of comfortable temperatures and low energy bills.
Hot Point maintains and repairs air conditioning units in commercial buildings as well as residential.It can be difficult trying to decide whether to repair or replace your air conditioner. The cost of repairs and frequent professional maintenance can add up to the point where trying to prop up an aging A/C stops making sense. You need to consider the cost of repairs and the potential energy savings of newer air conditioning units.
Your best course of action to avoid this difficult decision is keeping your air conditioning unit in proper working order. Just like frequent oil changes stop your car from breaking down prematurely, routine, preventative maintenance can extend the life of your air conditioner while also improving performance.
Here are a few frequent routine checks you ought to make to ensure your unit is humming when you need it:
Keep a close watch on your air conditioning unit. Routine maintenance extends the life of the unit and limits the amount of time and money spent on A/C repair service calls. If you don’t feel up to maintaining your unit by yourself or know air conditioner maintenance is something you’ll forget to do, Hot Point Heating offers guaranteed service agreements to ensure your system is always in tip-top shape.
