Heating and Cooling Repair

Our licensed, trained, and experienced HVAC technicians have seen it all.  Unfortunately, no HVAC system is immune to repairs.  Some systems last much longer than others and can go years with seemingly no problems, but at some point, they will need some work done.  Just like any other machine with moving parts that works year-round, a little maintenance is required from time to time and will go a long way to the longevity of the machine.

In a place like the midwest where we can experience very cold and long winters, and scorching hot summers, dependable heating and cooling systems are crucial.  Often times, these systems break down when they are working the hardest to keep your home or business cool or warm.  In Illinois, that’s usually the majority of the year.  We don’t have the luxury of having 6 straight months of 70-degree weather like some places.

Sometimes it can be obvious when something is wrong with your HVAC systems.  Before you call for help, be sure to double-check that your thermostat is receiving power and if it is battery operated, try a new set of batteries first.

Look, if it’s the middle of summer and your air conditioner is blowing warm air, it’s probably time for AC repair.  The same goes for a heating system blowing cool air in the winter.  These are about as obvious of signs as you will get.  Another sign can be unusual noises coming from your outdoor condenser or furnace.  Banging, buzzing, clanking, clicking, humming, squealing, screaming or rattling is usually not a good sound to hear.  This can be a (sometimes loud) indicator that something is wrong.

Keep an eye on your energy/utility bills as well.  If you are getting worse energy efficiency and more expensive bills than usual, have a technician come and take a look at your units.  There could simply be a leak or filter issue that is costing you money.

Short-cycling can cost you money and be an indicator of needed repairs too.  In short, short-cycling is when your unit is continually turning on and off.  This can cause damage to the system and turn a simple repair into a full-on replacement.

If something just doesn’t seem right with your heating or cooling, don’t hesitate to have a professional take a look just in case.  It’s better to perform a quick repair than to have to replace an entire system because a small problem was neglected for too long.
