Signs You Need To Repair Your AC
An effective and efficient air conditioner is essential for your home comfort this summer, and every summer. That’s why the team at Modern Air & Water is committed to providing our clients with the highest quality repair services available.
Some of the most common issues we’ve seen in Edmonton Area homes include uneven cooling, leaks, strange noises and odours. Over the years though, our team has also uncovered more covert problems like poor air flow, filter issues and thermostat malfunctions.
No matter the perceived severity of the issue, it’s important to call in our team of pros! For example, something as mundane as a slight musty smell coming from your air conditioner can point toward mold and mildew growth which can reduce the effectiveness of your unit, and even cause health problems if ignored for too long.
Give our experienced team a call today to schedule your AC repair to avoid increases in your utility bills, and possible unit damage.
And while you’re at it, why not call us in for some annual duct cleaning? Dirty ducts put extra strain on your AC system, reducing its power and efficiency. We’ll also provide thorough cleaning on your AC’s coils, motors, fans and blowers. How cool is that?
When Repairs Aren’t Enough
One of the best indications of your air conditioner needing to be replaced is it’s age.The average lifespan of a well-maintained air conditioner in Alberta is 15-20 years. This is typically due to the fact that we don’t run our units year-round, helping increase longevity.
However if your current unit is anywhere between 10-20 years old, and you’re experiencing recurring issues, no amount of repair will help it cool your home more effectively, so keep this in mind when making your decision.
As much as we love seeing you, if you’re calling us constantly to repair your AC, it’s time to bite the bullet and consider replacement. It’ll not only save you money overall, it’ll also save you from serious headaches.
Older air conditioners also use older refrigerant that is being phased out in favour of healthier options that are easier to source, and that are more cost effective for the consumer. If you’re not sure what refrigerant is used in your system, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
Long-term Energy Efficiency & Other Pros
Increased energy efficiency is probably the biggest benefit to AC replacement. Newer air conditioners are more efficient and will help save you money month over month on your cooling bills.
Modern AC units can also come equipped with air filters and purifiers to improve your indoor air quality while cooling your home. Newer models also come with innovative features such as wifi compatibility making your home comfort that much more convenient.
