What does the modern air conditioning system do for a home that so drastically raises comfort levels?

Temperature control is only the beginning of the benefits of having a fully functioning air system. The process of air cooling involves air compression that removes moisture from the air. This lowers the relative humidity in a home, which can be a major contributor to discomfort. The heating process has the opposite effect on the air in a home, expanding it and raising the humidity. Outside of moisture control, air filters play a major role in making a home livable. Filters capture most irritants before they have a chance to circulate through a home. The following list covers some of the biggest factors in a home and how the air system moderates or filters them:

  • Pollen- This substance can be a major problem all year long for allergy sufferers. Filters capture most of this as it enters the home through exterior vents.
  • Humidity- The cooling and heating process helps to naturally moderate the humidity in the air. This is huge for wet and dry climates.
  • Mold- This can be a major health risk in homes and should be taken very seriously. Filters will capture spores as they circulate through a home and prevent the mold from spreading.
  • Bacteria- Airborne illnesses can be a major cause for concern in some homes. Clean filters will capture and prevent the spread of bacteria.
  • Pet dander- If a homeowner has one or more animals inside a home, this substance can be a major cause of allergies. Filters will prevent this from circulating and causing problems.
  • Dust- This is one of the biggest materials captured by air filters. So much of this substance is removed that it can clog and block air vents if not cleaned.

What is the appropriate timing for a homeowner to seek out air conditioning service or heating repair service?

The timing for heating repairs and air conditioning repairs can be a very important factor in the health of a home. Most experts are in agreement that air filters need to be cleaned once every three months. The same experts agree that the main unit of a home should be inspected once every year. This annual inspection includes a look at the vents and checks for mechanical issues in the main fans. If a homeowner is unsure when the last inspection took place, they should take the initiative and contact a local expert immediately. This will establish a timeline and relationship with a local company. This can help future repairs go smoother and may even save money at some point.

What are some of the more common issues that a homeowner should take as a warning that they should schedule air conditioner repairs or furnace repairs?

Many issues arise in home air systems that homeowners can spot. The guiding principle for air system repairs is that preventive maintenance is almost always cheaper than emergency fixes. Following a timeline and responding to issues as they are spotted is a responsible plan of action and something that a homeowner should strive for. The following list shows some of the most common problems, and what they mean for the homeowner:

  • The air conditioner or furnace will not start. This is often a sign that the thermostat is malfunctioning, but may be a more serious issue with the fan or coolant levels.
  • The air conditioner or furnace run longer than they should and start slowly. This points to a malfunctioning thermostat.
  • The home has pronounced cold spots and hot spots. This is a warning sign that the ventilation system has become clogged or is leaking.
  • The utility costs of the home have begun to rise without reason. This is usually a sign that the ventilation system is leaking or is clogged somewhere.
