Why Is My AC System Overheating?

Monday, July 25th, 2022

Have you recently had the ability to cool your home interrupted because the circuit breaker for the air conditioner suddenly tripped? If this continues to happen, it means you have an AC that’s overheating and overloading the circuit. Essentially what’s occurring is that the air conditioner is working harder than it should.

Under normal use, even in the middle of hot weather, the AC shouldn’t overheat. When it does, it’s because of a problem with it that you’ll need to address.

These are the four most common reasons for an overheating air conditioner:

Does My AC Thermostat Need To Be Replaced?

Monday, July 18th, 2022

The thermostat doesn’t receive as much attention as it deserves as part of a home’s HVAC system. After all, it doesn’t feel like it’s connected to the bigger machinery of the air conditioner such as the blower, the heater, and the ductwork. But the thermostat is the control panel for a comfort system, the “brains” of the heating and cooling. Like any part of the HVAC system, a thermostat can wear down and become obsolete, leading to poorer performance from the rest of the system.

A thermostat will eventually need a replacement. How can you tell when your thermostat is ready for an upgrade?

The Best AC Systems

Monday, June 27th, 2022

Once upon a time, if you wanted air conditioning for your house, you only had two options. You could purchase separate window AC units or you could use a central air conditioning system. The first option was never ideal—window ACs are awkward, don’t offer enough cooling power, block windows, and are generally impractical for providing comfort to an entire home. A central air conditioning system offered homeowners what they wanted in general comfort, but not all homes could use them.

Today, you have more options for a quality AC system. Our AC system service in Churchville, NY installs central air conditioning, heat pumps, and ductless mini split heat pumps. There are benefits to each of these, and which one is right for you will depend on several factors. We’ll look at these three types below.

What Is a Ductless Mini Split?

Monday, April 25th, 2022

You may have heard talk about ductless mini splits as an option for comfort in a home.
