Stay Cool Year-Round
When the temperature heats up, you need an air conditioning system you can count on. On hot summer days, air conditioning isn’t just a matter of comfort, but of safety. If you start to notice any problems with your system, it’s important to call in back up as soon as possible. At Blaze Heating, Cooling, Electrical & Plumbing, we ensure your home is comfortable and cool throughout every season with fast, expert AC repair in Raleigh.
Signs You Need AC Repairs
Each home and air conditioning system is unique, so it can be difficult to know if what you’re experiencing is a small quirk or if it requires professional help. If anything seems amiss, we recommend you reach out to us for a quick check-in, especially because problems that lead to the need for air conditioner repair in Raleigh often start small and can be easy to miss until they’re more serious. Here are signs to look out for:
Uneven Cooling
Are you freezing in one room of your home and sweltering in another? You could be experiencing uneven cooling. The culprit could be a number of factors, including air ducts, filters, or coils. We can help you create a more consistent temperature throughout your home.
Strange Noises
Even healthy air conditioners make noises, but if you notice any new sounds, like banging, rattling, or squealing, it’s time to call an expert in to investigate. These noises can signal that something in your system is working incorrectly and needs replacing.
Foul Odors
Over time, air conditioning units can build up moisture, leading to a persistent musty smell caused by mold and mildew. We can help you clean out anything that is harmful to both you and your AC system and restore your home’s freshness.
Warm Air
The last thing you want after coming inside from a warm summer day is warm air to blow on you. Common causes include low refrigerant, a malfunctioning thermostat, and a dirty air filter. We’ll check each of these to find and remedy the issue.
Won’t Turn On
If your AC unit stops working completely, it’s time to call Blaze. We’ll come out, identify the problem, and quickly get you back to cool and comfortable. With our 24/7 service, you can count on us for fast, expert service no matter the day or time.
Preventive Air Conditioning Maintenance
Annual tune-ups and preventative maintenance can save you thousands of dollars, not to mention time and stress. We recommend scheduling at least one service per year to keep your air conditioner running properly. Our comprehensive AC maintenance in Raleigh includes:
Air Filter
Air filters collect dust, dirt, and debris, filtering them out so they don’t circulate your home.
Because they’re constantly accumulating unwanted debris over time, they have to be replaced. Dirty air filters can rapidly reduce your system’s airflow and efficiency. We’ll inspect the filter and clean or replace it if necessary.
Refrigerant Level
For optimal performance, your AC system requires proper refrigerant levels. Low refrigerant levels can damage components of the system, leading to greater wear and tear, while decreasing its efficiency. It can also signal a deeper problem, like a leak within the system.
Thermostat
Over time, thermostats can lose calibration, leading to inaccurate temperature readings and increased variability. We can test and calibrate your thermostat to ensure proper temperature control.
Condenser & Evaporator Coils
The condenser and evaporator coils are vital to your overall system, but are susceptible to issues like cracks, freezing, and debris buildup. These problems can be hard to identify yourself, but can quickly cause your system to become less efficient.
Ductwork & Airflow
Air ducts can experience leaks and blockages, reducing your AC’s efficiency and airflow. Ductwork can be complex, so we recommend trusting the troubleshooting to a professional. We’ll thoroughly examine your system for any issues.
Benefits of Preventive AC Maintenance
Many air conditioning issues go unnoticed until they become major problems. Preventive maintenance can catch these early and keep your system in peak condition, so you don’t need an untimely AC replacement. Routine air conditioning maintenance can:
Extend the Life of Your System
Regular air conditioning maintenance ensures your system performs at peak performance year-round, no matter the weather, limiting wear and tear and extending the system’s lifespan.
Lower Energy Bills
Poorly maintained air conditioners are often inefficient and costly to run. We’ll help you minimize energy waste with an energy-efficient unit.
Prevent Costly Issues
Don’t wait for your system to break down to get it checked. Avoid the cost, time, and stress of major issues by investing in preventative maintenance.
