Q: Does my HVAC technician have to be NATE certified?

• <div><p>NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification is not legally required for HVAC technicians in most areas, but hiring a professional with this certification is highly recommended. NATE-certified technicians demonstrated their expertise and proficiency in <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/common-types-of-HVAC-systems.htm">different types of HVAC systems</a>, offering assurance of quality service. It's a voluntary certification, yet it indicates a commitment to professionalism and ongoing training. Choosing a NATE-certified technician often means you're working with someone who is up-to-date on industry standards and best practices, which can lead to better service, energy efficiency, and long-term cost savings. </p></div>

Q: What is included in an HVAC service call?

• <div><p>Most HVAC service calls include diagnostic fees, which could include checking on a specific issue you&rsquo;re experiencing or running through a routine inspection checklist. If you called for a particular problem, the service call will also include an estimate to fix the issue, including materials and labor. Depending on your HVAC technician and the service you requested, you might also get a general inspection of your system components to ensure everything is working as intended.</p></div>

Q: How often should I change the filter and clean the coils to prevent freezing?

• <div><p>You should plan to change your AC unit's filter every <b>one to three months,</b> depending on the manufacturer's recommendations. You should also clean the coils at least <b>once per year</b>, but if you have pets or someone in your household has allergies, you might need to clean them more often. Fortunately, many pros will clean the coils and change the filter for you during an inspection, which you should schedule <b>once or twice per year</b>.</p></div>

Q: Does a higher BTU use more electricity?

• <div><p>Choosing a unit with higher BTUs can use more electricity if the BTUs are more than what&rsquo;s necessary for your room size. However, choosing an AC with BTUs that match the size of your room or house, your unit will cool your space efficiently. On the flip side, choosing a system with not enough BTUs can cause the system to work harder to try to cool the space, leading to more electricity consumption and higher energy bills.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to clean an AC filter with water?

• <div><p>For washable or electrostatic air conditioner filters, you can soak and rinse them with water. If you rinse the filter with water, make sure to use a faucet, shower head, or garden hose with a gentle water pressure setting, as strong water pressure could damage the filter.</p><p>But for disposable filters, water could ruin the filter, even allowing mold to grow in the filter. Instead, these filters should be replaced.</p></div>
