Prevention Protects Your AC From Breakdowns
Haboobs, or dust storms, appear out of nowhere this time of year which bring strong winds, dust clouds, rain and humidity that can really take a toll on your entire home, your AC and compromise your family’s safety.
Here’s what we recommend:
- The number 1 reason HVAC systems fail is typically due to electrical problems. We will check the entire electrical system in your AC system including all motors, controls, switches, contacts, fuses, breakers and electrical connections to make sure all is in good order so your AC will be reliable during our extreme weather conditions. Dirty air filters are another typical cause of AC failures. We’ll check your filter, replace it as needed and provide any recommendations for more effective filtration and improving the quality of your air.
- Monsoon season stirs up lots of wind, rain and dust which can easily cause your AC to fail. We’ll check your entire AC unit, clean the coils and remove any debris so that your AC system can properly breathe and work at peak efficiency.
Humidity & High Temperatures Bring More Threats to Your AC…
We’re usually around 10% to 15% humidity in our desert environment, but monsoon season can bring humidity levels that can exceed 50%. As temperatures exceed 110 degrees in this higher humidity, your AC system will struggle since it will need to run nearly non-stop to keep you and your family cool. These conditions can lead to serious problems like:
- Frozen Coils. If your system has a small refrigerant leak with the higher temperatures and humidity, it will force your system to run non-stop which can lead to the indoor coil becoming completely covered with ice, stopping all air flow which will cause your AC to fail. We will inspect your system for any refrigerant leaks, locate them if any and provide our recommendations that best fit your needs.
- Drain Line Blockage. Your AC will create more condensation the longer it runs. Condensation from your AC coil travels through the drain line. However, if it’s clogged, the water has nowhere to go, causing your AC to possibly shut down if it has automatic safety protection from flooding. A shutdown means no cool air for your family! Even worse, if your AC does not have condensate safety protection to trigger a shutdown, water can leak into your home and cause some serious damage. If your air handler is inside your home, water leakage can cause damage to your floor & walls and if it is in your attic, your ceiling may possibly cave in which I guarantee is no fun.
During our AC Safety Inspection we’ll test your entire condensate system and make sure it is operating properly. We’ll also verify the status of your existing condensate safety devices, check that they are operating properly and recommend any additional if needed. And while we’re there doing an AC Safety Inspection & maintenance, we’ll also provide you a Complimentary Whole Home Electrical Safety Inspection free of charge!
Power Surges Can Cause Serious Damage As Well
This is why taking advantage of our Complimentary Whole Home Electrical Safety Inspection is such a life saver! Our summer storms can cause electrical surges and power outages that can create havoc with your AC, computers, televisions, appliances and possibly shut down your entire home! We recommend a Whole House Surge Protector on your main electrical panel that will protect all of the connected appliances within your home. Now, your AC unit is a bit different because it uses so much electricity. We recommend installing a dedicated AC surge protector device to properly protect your unit from power surges. When we complete a Complimentary Whole Home Electrical Safety Inspection, we’re going to verify your entire home electrical system is safe & in good order including:
- The electrical to your appliances
