If you could look at the readings, you would see most failures coming a season in advance. A capacitor measuring 8 percent under its rating in spring is the one that fails in the first heat wave. A system bleeding refrigerant through a pinhole leak keeps running, weaker each week, until the coil freezes solid. A furnace flame sensor fouls slowly and then shuts the furnace down on a frigid night. That is the whole point of maintenance for Anniston, AL homeowners: find the problem while it is a trend, and fix it on a calm weekday rather than as a crisis.
The repairs homeowners call us about most are AC Repair and Furnace Repair. That's the place to start if you need a fix today.
Signs You Need HVAC Maintenance in Anniston
Spotting the early warning signs lets you act before the problem gets expensive. Keep an eye out for the following clues:
- A newer unit with warranty terms that call for regular professional service
- Higher heating and cooling costs with no clear explanation
- New noises when the equipment starts up
- A surprise breakdown during the last hot or cold spell
- It has been more than a year since anyone opened the equipment
- The house taking longer to reach the temperature you set
- Musty air when the fan starts, or a filter that has been in far too long
- No real sense of how healthy your heating and cooling equipment is
