Your AC Questions Answered
Below you'll find answers to the most frequently asked questions about AC units and services. If you still have questions, feel free to reach out to us through our contact page.
Should You Replace Your AC If It Has a Persistent Bad Odor?
A persistent bad odor from your AC doesn’t always mean it needs to be replaced, but it does indicate an issue that requires attention. Common causes include mold or mildew buildup, which can often be resolved by cleaning filters, coils, and drain lines, or burning smells, which may signal an electrical issue needing immediate inspection.
Musty odors are usually due to dirty filters or ductwork and can be fixed with regular maintenance. However, if odors persist despite cleaning and repairs, it could point to severe mold growth, failing components, or an aging unit (15+ years old).
If you're unsure whether to repair or replace your AC, read more in our article, "Should You Replace Your AC If It Has a Persistent Bad Odor?"
What Are SEER, EER, and HSPF Ratings?
SEER, EER, and HSPF ratings measure an HVAC system’s energy efficiency, helping you understand its performance and potential energy savings. SEER rates seasonal cooling efficiency, EER measures peak cooling performance, and HSPF evaluates heating efficiency for heat pumps. To learn more about these ratings and how they impact your comfort and costs, check out our full article, Understanding SEER, EER, and HSPF Ratings.
Does Running the AC Constantly Actually Save Money?
Keeping your AC running at a steady temperature may seem counterintuitive, but it can reduce energy usage. This method avoids high energy demands when your AC has to cool a hot home, helping lower your bills. Check out our article, How Keeping Your AC On Saves Money, to see why it works.
