Air Conditioning Service Tips For The Homeowner! A/C Comfort 101

Arizona Air Conditioning Service Contractor American Cooling And Heating Gives Homeowners Useful Tips To Help Curb Expensive A/C Repairs.

“We’ll help keep you in the cool”

The Heat Is On And It’s A/C Time!

Summer has arrived and A/C units are working overtime. As a homeowner the responsibility of having your comfort A/C system serviced and maintained is an important factor in assuring the longevity of that system and in keeping your home cool when the summer temps sizzle.

A/C Basics

Comfort air conditioning systems are designed to help keep people comfortable and to also provide healthy air quality. A complete air conditioning system is capable of adding and removing heat and moisture and of filtering and removing airborne substances, such as dust, allergens, and indoor pollutants from the space to be conditioned. When designing an air conditioning system, dehumidification and air flow are important factors to be considered in addition to temperature control.

A/C Maintenance

Properly maintaining air conditioning equipment is the best way to preserve your existing A/C system and to hedge your bet against expensive future repairs. A well maintained air conditioner will fail less frequently and will use less power and save you money. Be sure to have you’re A/C system serviced no less than once a year, and in high dust areas a more frequent A/C servicing may be required. Change your filter every month and make sure it fits tightly in the filter frame. If filters don’t fit tightly then apply foam tape that can be found at local hardware store to the inside of the frame to assure a snug fit and to prevent dust and dirt from bypassing the filter.

A/C Repair

A/C Repairs can be expensive, and they can be repetitive. Air Conditioning units are machines and machines have a definite life expectancy. Wear and tear from operation under adverse conditions such as high ambient temperatures, dirty power supply, and transient voltage spikes from lightning storms and power company equipment failures can dramatically shorten the life of you’re A/C unit, by causing damage to components and pushing the cost toward economic obsolescence.

A/C Replacement

If new A/C equipment is needed, then choosing the right equipment for the application is part of the process as well as duct design and installation parameters. High efficiency equipment is always a good choice; however budget limitations and payback to investment are factors to consider, your budget should also include post installation service and warranty. Be sure to check out the company you choose to install your comfort system, the Arizona Registrar Of Contractors and the Better Business Bureau are two excellent resources for that purpose here in Arizona. Make sure your contractor performs a proper job-site survey prior to start of the work, checking all parameters required for proper installation. Upon completion of the comfort air conditioning system installation, all equipment should be tested and all readings confirmed to be within operational parameters. A commissioning checklist should be filled out with recorded readings, procedures practiced, and system condition to give you the actual system performance and for verification of proper procedures.

When Temperatures Become Critical, A Summer Survival Guide For Homeowners

HVAC Contractor American Cooling And Heating Provides Insight To Homeowners On The Ins And Outs Of Choosing New Air Conditioners And Heat Pumps

“We’ll Keep You In The Cool And Comfortable”

Summer comes to bring warmth into are lives….. a lot of warmth sometimes, and maybe too much for some people. Air conditioning was designed to bring comfort to people. Over time the process was refined and in 1902 Willis Carrier designed a refrigeration system that all modern air conditioning is modeled after. Technology has come a long way since then, so much so that the choice of brands, types, efficiencies, and even the company you chose to perform the installation is varied and difficult to navigate. The following are some useful tips and information that might make the process a little easier.

Air Conditioning Basics 101

Some of the major air conditioning and heat pump brands are Carrier, Goodman, Rheem, Trane, Lennox, Ruud, Amana, and York. Most mainstream brands of HVAC (Heating Ventilating & Air Conditioning) equipment are built with quality techniques to meet proper energy efficiency standards and to provide reliability. Efficiency of equipment is rated in SEER (Seasonal energy efficiency ratio) for modern equipment this rating starts at 13 SEER and for every unit higher it decreases the energy draw and increases the equipment’s energy efficiency.

When one thinks of cooling, they may not think of heat pumps. In fact, air conditioning is likely the first thought, a heat pump can both heat and cool, and in some applications, it’s the preferred choice of cooling system.

Oh By The Way What’s a Heat Pump?

A Heat Pump is a Refrigeration System that can be used for Cooling and Heating. Refrigeration systems work by transferring heat from one area to another. The Heat Pump is a refrigeration system that has been in use for many years. Refrigerators and Air Conditioners are both common examples of simple a Heat Pump used for Cooling.

Heat Pumps transfer Heat by pumping a medium used for heat transfer through a cycle of alternating evaporation and condensation. Two of the most commonly used mediums are Refrigerants R22, and R410A. A compressor pumps the Refrigerant between two Heat exchanger coils. In one coil, the Refrigerant is evaporated at low pressure and absorbs Heat from its surroundings. The Refrigerant is then compressed en route to the other coil, where it condenses at high pressure. At this point, it releases the Heat it absorbed earlier in the cycle.

An Air Conditioner is an example of a Heat Pump operating in the Cooling only or Straight Cool configuration. Heat is absorbed from inside the space to be Conditioned and transferred outside.

The Heat Pump cycle is reversible by implementation of a reversing valve in the Refrigeration circuit. A Heat Pump can provide year round conditioned air for your home, heating in winter and Cooling and Dehumidifying in summer.

The Air Source Heat Pump is the most popular type of Heat Pump; it absorbs and transfers Heat from the outdoor air in winter and it absorbs and transfers Heat from the indoor air during summer. Another type of Heat Pump is the Ground Source Heat Pump, also called a Geo Thermal Heat Pump System, it can absorb and transfer Heat to or from the ground or ground water, and is quite popular in certain geographic areas.

Some Key Points

Perform research on equipment brands and types to determine what fits your needs and budget. Choose your HVAC contractor wisely, be sure they have a valid contracting license with little or no complaints, look for a good rating with the better business bureau, and ask for references. Quality installation workmanship is key to the functionality and longevity of new HVAC equipment. Air conditioning and heat pumps must be installed by manufacturer’s specifications and to local and/or national codes.

Arizona Air Conditioning Service Shares Tips On How To Protect Your Air Conditioner Through The Summer Months.

Arizona Air-Conditioning service provider American Cooling and Heating provides these easy tips that could potentially save your A/C Unit during the Summer months.

When you come home after a long Arizona summer day, there is nothing better than walking into a cool, comfortable home to relax. Coming home to a broken air conditioner, on the other hand, can be quite upsetting. For this reason, it’s essential to make sure that your air conditioning unit is functioning properly during these hot summer months and why AC System maintenance is of utmost importance. Our air conditioning specialists offer these helpful tips about air conditioning options that can eliminate dust and dirt from your air conditioner, as well as offer the required maintenance on your AC to keep you in the cool and comfortable.

American Cooling and Heating’s AC Services Tips:

One of the easiest air conditioning options is to be sure that you use a high quality air filter. Air filter replacement is the most commonly needed air conditioning maintenance service. Replacing the air filter monthly protects the mechanical components of your air conditioning system from dirty buildup. A dirty air filter also can impede airflow and force your air conditioning system to work harder and less efficiently to cool your home. A poorly maintained AC System may fail due to abnormal wear and tear. Dirt and dust buildup may cause you to need an air conditioner repair visit or may lead to expensive parts failures or AC Unit replacement. Our air conditioning specialists determine the condition of your AC System and thoroughly maintain it to help preserve comfort to your Arizona home.

There are many important reasons for having Heating and Air Conditioning System Maintenance performed.

1. Abnormal Wear And Tear

Abnormal wear and tear can occur due to a lack of maintenance; this in turn can cause damage to important system components and cause premature failure of those components. Technicians performing routine maintenance can keep your unit running as it was designed to.

2. Equipment Efficiency

Cleaning and tune up can dramatically affect system performance. A properly maintained system will have more capacity to perform its work when needed and at a reduced operating cost. The savings you gain by having periodic maintenance performed can help make up for the cost of the maintenance itself.

3. Equipment longevity

Regular maintenance can also substantially extend the life of your home heating system. And this is true no matter what type of Heating and Air Conditioning System it may be, by keeping heat exchangers clean and free of debris and by changing defective parts promptly.

4. Inconvenience

Heating and Air Conditioning Systems can fail due to a lack of maintenance and this typically happens when you need to depend on the system working. This can cause something as minor as inconvenience or can put people with health related problems at great risk.

If your system is past its prime or even if it’s brand new take advantage of the energy efficiency gains made and avoid costs of premature failures by having maintenance performed annually. A licensed HVAC Contractor can visit your home and evaluate your Heating and Air Conditioning System and advise you of its condition. Here are some of the key items that should be checked annually:

  • Check overall condition and health of entire system
  • Check and clean condenser coil
  • Check and clean evaporator coil
  • Check condensate drain
  • Check drain pan
  • Check the air filter
  • Check all electrical components
  • Check refrigerant pressure for proper charge
  • Check voltage and amperage
  • Check temperature split on evaporator
  • Check temperature split on condenser
  • Check super heat and sub cooling

By following these best practices used in the HVAC industry you may lengthen the life of your existing Air Conditioning System as well as conserve energy and lower your utility bills.
