Q: What size window AC do I need?

• <div><p>The size window AC you need depends on the BTU and the size of the room you&rsquo;re cooling. For a room with 8-foot ceilings, look for about 20 BTU per square foot of the room. For example, a 12-by-12-foot room should have an air conditioner with 2,880 BTU. You can buy something slightly more powerful, but don&rsquo;t overshoot the BTU for a small room, or you&rsquo;ll waste energy and have higher bills.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a home surge protector and an HVAC surge protector?

• <div><p>The difference between a home surge protector and an HVAC surge protector is that an HVAC surge protector is designed to protect the components inside your HVAC unit while a home surge protector is installed near appliances and meant to protect your entire home. There are three tiers of whole-house surge protectors, and they are more expensive to install than HVAC surge protectors.</p></div>

Q: Can you run an air conditioner with a Freon leak?

• <div><p>No, you should not run an air conditioner with a Freon leak. If you think your AC unit is leaking refrigerant, shut it off immediately. When you keep using a leaky air conditioner, it could damage the unit and release more refrigerant. After turning off the AC, have an HVAC pro come take a look at the unit.</p></div>

Q: Can a power outage damage your air conditioner?

• <div><p>A power outage can damage your air conditioner, just like a power surge can damage any electrical device or appliance. In most cases, your circuit breaker or built-in surge protection on your AC unit protects your AC and just needs a reset. But in other cases, it might be that your AC compressor or capacitor was blown during the power surge. You&rsquo;ll need to have an HVAC professional repair or replace any AC parts. </p></div>

Q: What is the typical lifespan of an HVAC system and its components?

• <div><p>An HVAC system typically lasts between 10 and 30 years, with an average lifespan of 15 to 25 years. The longevity of the system is influenced by factors such as the quality of the unit, usage frequency, local climate, and how well it is maintained. Regular maintenance, including cleaning, filter replacements, and professional inspections, can help maximize its lifespan. Different components within the system have varying life expectancies. For example:</p><ul><li><p>Furnaces: 15 to 30 years</p></li><li><p>Boilers: 20 to 35 years</p></li><li><p>Air Conditioners (AC units): 12 to 20 years</p></li><li><p>Heat Pumps: 10 to 20 years</p></li><li><p>Ductless Mini-Splits: 10 to 30 years</p></li></ul></div>

"I am very pleased with the service and equipment. Patrick was prompt, did the work quickly and cleaned up afterward. His price was very reasonable and he has called to check on the system and make sure I am satisfied. I know he will be there right away if I have any problems. I had no experience with choosing a system for an older house in Santa Fe. There is no ductwork. It was heated with a wood stove. The mini split system has given me three zones in the house where I can control the heat or cooling separately. This is perfect for me because I don't have to heat or cool areas that I am not using."
