Q: Is it OK for my AC to run all day?

• <div><p>If you have central air conditioning, it&rsquo;s fine to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-ac-can-run-continuously.htm">run your AC all day</a> if that&rsquo;s what you want&mdash;as long as the AC unit is in good condition. But if your AC runs constantly when you don&rsquo;t want it to, there may be a problem with your system (like the ones we&rsquo;ve mentioned above). Window AC units and wall air conditioners aren&rsquo;t as powerful as central AC, so you should only run those kinds of air conditioners for eight to 12 hours at a time. </p></div>

Q: How do I choose a good central air conditioner?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re trying to buy a new AC unit, there are a few crucial factors to consider. Look at the cooling capacity, the available warranty, the energy efficiency, and the type of unit. A ductless unit will cost more up front but may be a more viable option if you don&rsquo;t already have ductwork. Additionally, a unit with better energy efficiency will cost less to run overall, saving you money on your monthly energy bill. </p></div>

Q: How do I know what size central air conditioner I need?

• <div><p>You need to know the square footage of your home first. Multiply that number by 20, which will get you the BTUs (British Thermal Units) needed to cool your home efficiently. Homes up to 1,000 square feet usually need a 1.5-ton unit; homes 1,000 to 1,200 square feet usually need a 1.75-ton unit, and homes 1,200 to 1,400 square feet usually need a 1.9-ton unit. Talk to a local pro for more specific advice on your home. </p></div>

Q: What issues can a dirty air conditioning coil cause?

• <div><p>A dirty air conditioning coil can cause your unit to work overtime, leading to reduced efficiency, higher energy use, more wear and tear, and possible ice buildup. If the coils corrode, refrigerant can leak, causing damage, possible mold growth, and an expensive repair bill. By cleaning your AC coils once a year, you&rsquo;ll have a more efficient unit that&rsquo;s likely to last longer.</p></div>

Q: Is the cost of HVAC maintenance worth it?

• <div><p>While spending money once or twice a year to tuneup your AC and furnace might seem like a waste of money, think again. The cost of HVAC maintenance is far less than the cost of replacing your furnace or AC unit, regardless of the type of HVAC system you have. Paying this smaller fee now will help you avoid paying much more significant costs in the future. Not to mention, having a serviced AC and heating system will help keep your home comfortable, no matter the season. </p></div>

We are very pleased with the work he did. He replaced an old dryer venting line that had completely broken down and was putting a lot of lint out into the inside of our home. It so nice to run the dryer now and not have all that hot moist air and lint going everywhere. Thanks Van
