During the summertime in the Hamptons, folks want to live a carefree summer, enjoying the beach, sunshine and most importantly their air conditioning with their families. But, unfortunately, life has its own way of working, but, knowing these signs will be your indicator that your equipment needs immediate service.
1.) Sudden Increase in Your Energy Bills
Let’s say your system is getting up there in age, it takes awhile for the system to turn on and fully pump out the cool air it’s supposed to, well this can make your energy bills rise. Noticing the change in your consistent bills is something every homeowner will realize. This folks is the first of many signs.
2.) The Air coming Out of Your Vents is Not Cold Enough
Is their air coming out of your vents? Was it not as cold as it was last summer? Does it feel slightly warm in front of the vent? This is a sign of a faulty system and that your unit is in immediate attention. This can be anywhere from a “simple fix” with refrigerant, or it could be an expensive, not so simple fix.
3.) Not Enough Air Coming Out?
Not as much air as you remember from last year? This could be an issue with the ducts. Dust, dander, dog hair, pollen, and other things can get caught up in the vents, so it is important to have them cleaned. The build-up of the following weakens your airflow and as well the quality of the air in your home.
4.) Unusual Noise Coming from the Unit
Fact: Air Conditioners are designed to run with little to no noise as possible. So, if you’re hearing any kind of noise from the outside unit, it’s time to call in the professionals. Rather call sooner than later because this is a HUGE INDICATION that your unit is on it’s way out.
5.) Leaking Around the AC Unit
Walking outside and finding a pool of water around your system is never a good thing. This is an obvious sign that there is a major problem. There could be many problems when it comes to a leak in the system. OR, if the unit is leaking refrigerant then it’s time to call without any delay.
