Frequently Asked Questions About Air Conditioning

You may need to call for emergency air conditioning repairs if your AC system completely stops working in extreme weather conditions, such as during a heatwave, and poses a risk to your health and safety. Other signs of an emergency may include strange smells, unusual noises, or electrical issues associated with the AC unit. Contact our professional HVAC technicians for immediate assistance.

Regularly replacing air conditioning filters is essential for maintaining good indoor air quality and ensuring the efficient operation of your AC system. Dirty filters can restrict airflow, reduce cooling efficiency, and allow contaminants to circulate in the air, which can worsen allergies and respiratory issues. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines or consult an HVAC professional to determine the appropriate filter replacement schedule for your specific system.

Whether to set your air conditioning to “auto” or “cool” depends on your personal preference and the climate conditions. When set to “auto,” the AC unit will automatically adjust the fan speed and cooling cycles based on the temperature setpoint. This can be more energy-efficient, as the unit runs only when necessary. However, if you prefer a constant airflow or if the outdoor humidity is high, setting it to “cool” can help maintain a consistent cooling effect.
