Fives Signs That Your Air Conditioning Efficiency Needs Improvement

Now that summer is in full swing and temperatures are soaring, you’re depending more and more on your air conditioning unit to keep you and your family comfortable. Cooler temperatures in your home will decrease the amount of stress on your body while also helping you get a more restful sleep. Unfortunately, the harder your air conditioning system works, the higher your energy bills can get. This is why you need to make sure your air conditioning is working efficiently to keep those bills under control. JP Heating and Air Conditioning can either service or replace your unit to keep it running effectively and efficiently in even the hottest weather. In today’s post, we will look at warning signs that your air conditioning system is not running as
Your Energy Bill is Slowly Creeping Higher
If you are noticing that your monthly energy bill is gradually increasing, this is a sign that your air conditioning may not be running as efficiently as you need it to. When you notice this, it’s probably a good idea to have an experienced AC professional to inspect your unit to try and correct the problem. While the work may cost some many, at first, the service appointment can pay for itself in no time when your energy bills drop back to acceptable levels.
The Air Conditioning Runs Non-Stop
A properly working air conditioning unit will run in cycles a few times per hour. If you happen to notice that your AC is running more frequently than that, or even constantly, then you should have your system serviced with basic maintenance, at minimum, to identify the issue.
Your Home Temperature is Inconsistent
Air conditioning systems are designed to cool each room in your home equally. If you notice that some rooms are always too hot, while others are always too cold, your unit may require service, or possibly even replacement. One of our experienced professionals can inspect your unit and determine if it can be repaired, or not.
Your Unit is More than a Decade Old
Like most machinery or equipment in your home, your air conditioning unit will lose efficiency over time due to normal wear and tear. The good news is that this doesn’t necessarily mean that the entire unit needs replacing. Have one of the HVAC experts from JP Heating & Air Conditioning inspect your older unit and determine the best course of action.
Your AC Unit Malfunctions Often
The most obvious sign of AC problems is a unit that is constantly acting up, whether it’s making strange noises, emitting an unpleasant odor, constantly running, or other issues. If you are calling for repair service repeatedly without long-term results, it’s more than likely time to replace the unit. Our AC professionals will diagnose the problem and then discuss the solutions with you, so you can make the best educated decision as to how to proceed.
