When to Call a Spring Valley HVAC Technician for a Repair
Part of being a responsible homeowner is to know when parts of your home need help from a professional, and that includes your HVAC system. When you notice any of the following issues, it’s time to call a professional for residential HVAC repairs in Spring Valley:
- Odd moldy or musty smells from your home’s air conditioning.
- You feel like the air is making you ill in your home.
- Overflowing condensation lines.
- Frost on your exterior unit from an overworked system.
- The blower never turns off.
- The thermostat doesn’t seem accurate.
- Air coming from your system isn’t hot or cold enough.
- Hot and cold spots in your home.
- Animal invasion of your ductwork.
- Electrical issues, especially breakers tripping.
One great way to extend the life of your system is to keep the HVAC filter regularly changed or cleaned. When filters get too clogged, they can push pollutants into your home and cause your system to work far harder than it needs to.
HVAC systems already work hard enough in Spring Valley. With temperatures so high, they need maintenance twice a year to handle all the wear and tear. We recommend getting it done in spring and fall before the harsher weather hits.
Will I Get Pressured into Replacing My HVAC?
Some companies will try to push their customers toward replacement because they don’t want to do complicated repairs, or it makes them more money. That’s not us. We know how expensive it is to replace an HVAC system, so we will only recommend replacement if we can prove it will save you money over a repair.
In Spring Valley, most HVAC systems last between 10-15 years before the desert weather and sand cause a major breakdown. Regular maintenance can extend the life of your system, but only so far. After this point, it’s a matter of balancing the cost of repairs versus the cost of replacement.
If we feel a replacement is better, we will show you our cost breakdown and let you decide the route to take. Replacing a very old system can make your energy bill drop a ton and get you tax benefits for energy efficiency. We also offer financing for both repairs and replacement of your home’s HVAC.
A Special Note About R-22 Systems
If you still have an HVAC unit manufactured before January 2010, we encourage you to get it replaced as soon as possible. The refrigerant in these systems, R-22, is no longer created in the United States. The EPA has phased it out by regulation because it damages the ozone layer.
You are not required to replace your older HVAC, but it will become much more difficult to get the refrigerant for it. It will have to be reclaimed from other systems or recycled, and this is an expensive process. The cost of replacing refrigerant may quickly rise above the cost of replacement.
These systems are now in the 10–15 year window we talked about earlier, so many of them are due for replacement anyway. If you have a system that uses R-22, start budgeting for an HVAC replacement. You can also talk with us about your financing options.
Do You Need Emergency Residential HVAC Repair?
There are some situations where you can call to schedule the repair to your home’s HVAC system. Other times, you should not wait but instead should set up emergency repair services with our team right away. Using your system in some situations is risky to do and can cause more damage. It may also create an unsafe environment.
The following are some of the signs that you need emergency residential HVAC repair in Spring Valley.
Temperatures Are High and Your System Is Not Working
We do not recommend going without air conditioning on days when the temperature climbs above 100 degrees (and often, you should call well before this). If the temperature in your area is going to be very high or very low, call for emergency repair services to ensure that you do not have to suffer.
The System Will Not Turn On
Your first step is to give us a call so we can troubleshoot for you. After checking things like the breaker and fuses and ensuring there is power going to the system, you may benefit from having our repair technicians out to inspect and repair the system.
There Is Poor Airflow
Sometimes the first sign of a significant problem is a lack of air flowing through the system. This can happen for many reasons, including clogged vents and a dirty air filter. Other times it may be due to the condenser or the blower motor.
Don’t run your HVAC system when there is limited air moving through it. You are simply tasking it and pushing it to work harder.
There Are Strange Sounds or Odors Present
Changes in the functionality of the residential HVAC system can lead to numerous health risks. It’s always a good idea to respond to these quickly. That includes any squealing or burning smells.
Be sure to turn the system off and call for help. You also do not want to ignore musky odors or any scent of burning. Those may require emergency repairs.
Electrical Issues
Your home’s HVAC is dependent on electrical power, but if there is inconsistency in that access, such as due to damaged or frayed wiring, that could create an increased risk of a fire. To avoid this concern, turn to our emergency repair technicians, who can pinpoint the specific concerns.
Are You Unsure What’s Going On?
Don’t worry! We know that you do not have certified technicians in your home to problem-solve and troubleshoot what is going wrong for you. That’s why you have our team.
When you are unsure what is wrong with your home’s heating and cooling system, the better option is to simply give us a call and let our team troubleshoot for you. We will not recommend replacement services or even emergency services unless that is the type of help that is best suited for your specific needs.
Remember, too, that our team comes with the guidance and support you need. Ask us any questions while we are there, including ways to save money and reduce risks.
