Q: What happens when a return vent is blocked?

• <div><p>A blocked return air vent can cause your HVAC system to work much harder and, therefore, less efficiently. The result is higher utility bills and poorer air quality. A blocked return air vent can also cause unpleasant dust, dander, and odors to linger in your home&rsquo;s air. </p></div>

Q: Why are my vents blowing air when off?

• <div><p>Vents may blow air even though the air conditioning system is off because of the pressure difference between indoor and outdoor air or drafts from leaky ducts. Check for leaks or drafts in the ductwork or around windows and doors.</p></div>

Q: Can a whole-house dehumidifier save money?

• <div><p>Yes. Getting a whole-house dehumidifier can help you save money on energy bills. How? Your home automatically feels cooler when there&rsquo;s less humidity in the air (&ldquo;It&rsquo;s the humidity that gets ya!&rdquo; is such a true statement). This means that you won&rsquo;t need to run your AC as much as you would if you had all that extra humidity in your home.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell if an AC vent is open or closed?

• <div><p>There are a few ways to determine if a vent is open or closed. You can inspect the vent and examine the position of the fins. If there are spaces between them, the vent is open. If the fins are flat and touching, the vent is closed. You can also stand under the vent when the system is running to see if you feel air flowing through it.</p></div>

Q: How long will it take to recharge my AC unit?

• <div><p>A home AC unit provides anywhere from one-half to five <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hvac-terms-you-need-know.htm">tons of cooling</a> and requires approximately two to four pounds of refrigerant per ton of cooling. At approximately five to 10 minutes to fill one pound of refrigerant, a home that requires three tons of cooling will take about six to 12 pounds of refrigerant and approximately 30 minutes to two hours to completely recharge the unit.</p></div>
