Q: How often does an AC unit need Freon?

• <div><p>Ideally, an AC system should never need more Freon (a popular refrigerant) because it circulates in a closed loop. However, refrigerant leaks are not uncommon and may occur gradually over 5 to 15 years. If your system has a leak, it will need to be topped up in a process known as an AC recharge. Signs of a refrigerant leak include weakened AC performance, increased humidity in your home, higher utility bills, and a hissing sound from the unit. The cost of an AC recharge will depend on the size and type of your AC unit, as well as the type of refrigerant it uses.</p></div>

Q: Is an AC unit with a higher SEER rating worth it?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re planning an AC replacement, choosing an AC with a higher SEER rating may save you money in the long run. Tax credits could cover as much as 30% of the job, and you&rsquo;ll notice smaller utility bills (particularly if you live in a hot climate where you need to constantly run the AC). Generally, you can expect to pay between <b>$350 and $1,500 </b>for each SEER rating increase. Weigh the cost against your typical utility bill to figure out what&rsquo;s worth it to you.</p></div>

Q: What are the symptoms of dirty AC coils?

• <div><p>There are several tell-tale signs that your AC coils need cleaning, including:</p><ul><li><p>You&rsquo;re getting higher electricity bills.</p></li><li><p>Your home doesn&rsquo;t feel as cool as it usually does.</p></li><li><p>Your AC unit is running longer than usual to cool your home.</p></li><li><p>Your home is more humid than usual.</p></li><li><p>The coil is covered in frost while running.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What causes condensation on air vents?

• <div><p>Condensation forms when warmer, outside air combines with cooler air in your ductwork. This can happen when there are leaks in your air ducts, your HVAC system has a dirty air filter, or there&rsquo;s a lack of insulation around the ducts. To prevent it from happening, replace your HVAC filters as directed. Also, once every five years, hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/air-duct-cleaning/">local air duct cleaner</a> to clean and inspect them.</p></div>

Q: How do you fix uneven airflow in HVAC?

• <div><p>You can adjust uneven airflow in your home by adjusting the dampers on the vents. However, if the temperature feels consistent throughout the home, don&rsquo;t worry too much about uneven airflow. Generally speaking, larger rooms should receive more airflow than smaller rooms, especially if they only have one vent.</p></div>

"Majano Heating and AC came out on schedule. They found that the AC breaker had tripped, and guessed that this was caused by the compressor going bad. I felt stupid for not checking the breaker myself. They charged me $60 for a call-out fee, which I suppose is about average. They also quoted a price of $6000 for a new system or $3000 for just a new compressor, which, again, is probably about average these days, yet still outrageous."
