Q: Why is my home hotter than outside?

• <div><p>High humidity, bad insulation, warmth from sunlight, and poor circulation are all reasons your home&rsquo;s hotter inside than out. While this is what you want in the colder months, summer can become unbearable if this is a constant. Try to find the cause, but you need to remember that issues like this require a permanent fix (unless you want to bear down during the summer months).</p></div>

Q: How do I stop my AC drain from clogging?

• <div><p>There are several steps you can take to prevent your AC drain from clogging. This includes cleaning the drain line at least every three months, changing the filter every one to three months, and getting your AC serviced annually. Also, if any problems arise with your AC, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-hire-hvac-expert.htm">hire an HVAC technician</a> to deal with them ASAP.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to run the AC and dehumidifier together?

• <div><p>Yes, a dehumidifier and air conditioner can be used simultaneously in a home. A dehumidifier can bolster an air conditioner&rsquo;s efficiency. Typically, a dehumidifier is used when the air conditioner alone cannot keep a home&rsquo;s humidity levels at a comfortable <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/maintain-whole-house-humidifier-summer.htm">indoor humidity</a> level, which should, ideally, be between 30% and 50%.</p></div>

Q: Can an overheated compressor cause a fire?

• <div><p>Yes, it is possible. An electrical fire can break out if the compressor has inadequate ventilation. When it overheats but doesn't have a proper thermal cutout, this can cause the motor to short-circuit and catch fire. This risk is exacerbated if flammable materials, like dust and fallen leaves, are clogging the unit. The compressor overheating won't start a fire by itself, but poor maintenance and installation can increase the risk once it hits its breaking point and short-circuits.</p></div>

Q: Does adding central air increase home value?

• <div><p>Yes, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/window-units-central-air.htm">adding central air</a> can increase your home value by as much as 10%. Generally speaking, prospective buyers prefer a central AC system over a ductless system or room-by-room AC units. That&rsquo;s because central air conditioning blends into the home easier than individual room air conditioners and typically has less equipment to maintain.</p></div>

"Matt arrived on time & fixed duct leak above furnace & water tubing to drain water reinserted & glued. Also got 2 ceiling filters for me unasked & put new filter in. Very reasonable price for labor & supplies. Previous Dependable Heating & Air company sent 2 people who insisted I replace entire furnace and ducts up to roof vent & wouldn t fix simple duct water leak. Admittedly my furnace is old but still working fine. Will never use Dependable again. Matt didn t pressure me to replace furnace & give me a quick $ amount with no pressure. Nice guy. Matt Kazen was wonderful & will definitely use his company again for heating & air conditioning needs."

"The service was good, they were able to fix the problem and make my air conditioning run during the summer."

Our team at Bonney helped restore flow at this Sacramento home by performing a sewer spot repair on the main line for our customer. This involved locating the problem area, digging the trench, snaking the line to clear the drain, repairing a section of the sewer pipe, and then backfilling the space to restore back to the original landscape.
