What does an air conditioner and heater do that so greatly affects the air quality in a home?

The most direct benefit of properly maintained air conditioners and heaters is temperature control in a home. While this is often overlooked as a basic necessity of modern life, it also comes with a large number of secondary bonuses. If a home is situated in a warmer climate with humid air, air conditioning will also help to moderate the amount of water vapor in the air. Through the air compression process, air is cooled and moisture is pulled from it. Heating a home also raises humidity and helps to maintain those levels of comfort in a home during cold months. Modern air units also have integrated air filtration technology that removes irritants and pollution from the air. The following list includes some of the largest substances that a filtration system moderates:

  • Dust- The biggest irritant in any home and a constant worry for homeowners with allergy issues. This material is almost completely captured by well maintained and clean filters.
  • Pollen- This can be a huge problem all year long for homeowners with allergy issues. Filters will capture and remove most of this substance.
  • Humidity- The compression and heating process will keep this factor at comfortable levels
  • Bacteria- Airborne illnesses can be a big problem at all times. Filters remove and capture this from the air.
  • Mold- If mold takes root in a home, residents may not even be aware. Filters can capture and prevent the spread of this destructive substance.
  • Pet dander- Animals cannot help but release this material into the air system of a home. Filters will capture most of this as it circulates through the home.

What is the best time for a homeowner to seek out air conditioning service or heating repairs?

A homeowner should always be aware of when the last inspection on their air system was. If they are unsure when the last official inspection occurred, it is a good idea to get their unit looked at by a technician. An expert will thoroughly check an air conditioner for common problems and possible future issues. This will prevent an outage of service in the most vulnerable times of the year. No homeowner wants to be without air conditioning in the middle of a cold Delaware winter or smoldering summer. By contacting a professional and being aware of inspection timelines, a homeowner is taking responsible preventive action and protecting their home and the comfort that comes with it.

What are the more common signals that a homeowner should seek out air conditioner repairs or furnace repairs?

There are many warning signs that an air conditioner or heater are beginning to break. Preventive maintenance is always the answer to potential issues with these devices. Most professionals recommend that an air conditioner be inspected at least once a year. They also recommend that filters should be cleaned or replaced every three months. The following list encompasses some of the more common problems that occur with air systems:

  • Cold or hot spots in a home. This can be an issue with the ventilation system being blocked or clogged. The vents may be leaking air in unintended places, weakening overall circulation.
  • Changing utility costs without a difference in usage. This is a big indicator that the main air unit may have a problem with fluids or internal fans. This can also be caused by clogged or blocked vents.
  • The air conditioner or heater starts slowly and runs longer than it should. This is a common problem with the thermostat, but may be pointing to a fan that has worn out.
  • An air conditioner or heater that will not start. This could be a simple connection issue between the thermostat and the unit, or it could be a major break in the compressor or fan.
