  • Why is my AC not cooling properly?

    No one wants an AC that is not cooling. There are numerous reasons why an air conditioner is not cooling including a clogged air filter, faulty thermostat, damaged compressor, and refrigerant leak. It is best to contact your local air conditioning contractor for diagnosis and repair.

  • How often should I have my AC serviced?

    It can get hot in the Oviedo, FL area and you need your AC to always be performing its best to keep you comfortable. You should, ideally, have your air conditioning system serviced at least once a year. However, at any signs of issues, you should get it serviced immediately.

  • What are some signs that my AC needs repair?

    Signs that indicate your AC system needs to be repaired include:

    • Blowing Warm Air

    • Frequent Cycling On and Off

    • Poor Indoor Air Quality

    • High Energy Bills

    • Unpleasant Odors While in Use

  • When should I consider replacing my AC instead of repairing it?

    While repairs can often resolve AC issues, there are situations where replacement may be more cost-effective. Consider replacing your AC if:


    The unit is more than 10-15 years old

    The cost of repairs is significant compared to the value of the unit

    The AC is inefficient and causes high energy bills

    The unit requires frequent repairs


  • What are the benefits of replacing my AC?

    As with all things, air conditioners do not last forever. They will need to be replaced at some point. The benefits of installing a new AC include:

    • Improved Energy Efficiency

    • Reduced Energy Bills

    • Access to Modern Features

    • Increased Home Value


  • How long does an AC replacement typically take?

    The duration of an air conditioning installation will vary based on a few factors such as the size of the unit, where the existing unit is located, and the complexity of the installation. On average, an AC replacement can be done within a day.

  • What factors should I consider when choosing a new AC unit?

    When selecting a new AC unit, consider factors such as:


    • The size and layout of your home
    • Energy efficiency ratings (SEER rating)
    • Cooling capacity required for your space
    • Noise levels
    • Warranty and manufacturer reputation
  • Can I install a new AC unit myself?

    It is best to leave the installation of an AC to the professionals. Installation requires specialized tools and safety precautions that HVAC contractors are best equipped to handle. This will also ensure that the installation is done properly, giving you peace of mind.

  • How often should I replace my AC air filter?

    The frequency at which you need to replace your air filter will depend on the type of air filter you have, your indoor air quality, and usage. In general, you should replace your air filter every 1-3 months.

  • Is it normal for my AC to produce some noise?

    All air conditioning units produce some noise while operating. However, excessive levels of noise, grinding, or squealing noises are concerning. If you hear these things, you should contact our local cooling contractor.
