Your air conditioning system is essential to help you and your family to stay cool and comfortable during the summer months in Charlotte, North Carolina. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, most HVAC breakdowns result from problems that can be prevented with regular maintenance visits from a qualified HVAC company. Here are three AC issues to watch out for this summer.
AC Failure to Cool Your Home
Low refrigerant levels are usually the reason for inadequate cooling during the heat of summer. Inadequate cooling may be caused by refrigerant leaks, which should be diagnosed and repaired by your HVAC company. When the underlying problem is resolved, your technician can then recharge your system to make sure it cools your home efficiently and effectively.
Drainage Issues
Clogs or blockages in your condensate line can prevent water from draining properly. This can allow moisture to back up into your air conditioning system to cause serious issues with its performance and its ability to cool your home efficiently. In severe cases, condensate line blockages can result in breakdowns that could cause your HVAC system to shut down entirely.
Lack of AC Maintenance
ENERGY STAR recommends changing your HVAC filter at least once a month to protect your system and to prevent breakdowns. Regular HVAC filter changes can also protect your indoor air quality. Along with regular maintenance, changing your HVAC filter is one of the most important steps to prevent breakdowns and to ensure greater comfort inside your Charlotte home.
