Question 1

What is the difference between an AC maintenance visit and a service call?

Accepted Answer

Regularly scheduled maintenance is a preventive measure designed to extend the life of your unit and avoid expensive problems down the road. Service is what you call for when your AC stops working or stops working properly.

Question 2

How often do I need maintenance if my AC is working fine?

Accepted Answer

If the unit is under warranty, once a year, in the spring before it gets hot, is good enough. It’s also a warranty requirement. If the unit is older, twice a year, in the spring and fall, is recommended.

Question 3

What temperature should I keep my thermostat at when I’m not home?

Accepted Answer

The rule of thumb is 2 to 3 degrees above what you keep it at when you are home.

Question 4

How often do I need to change my AC filter?

Accepted Answer

Regardless of the manufacturer’s recommendation, filters should be changed every month in South Florida, especially if you have large pets, allergies, or smoke.

Question 5

I have a newborn baby, should I do anything different with my air conditioner?

Accepted Answer

We recommend you change your AC filter every month so there are fewer dust particles in the air for your baby's developing lungs and make sure your AC ducts are clean.

Question 6

My dog sheds a lot, is there anything special I need to do to take care of AC system?

Accepted Answer

Inspect your filter at least once a month. If you have a disposable filter, replace it often. If you have a washable filter, wash it at least once a month and don’t ever run the AC without an air filter.

Question 7

How do I make my air conditioner more energy efficient?

Accepted Answer

Make sure that all air vents are open and unrestricted, get a programmable thermostat, have your system inspected regularly, and change the air filter every month.

Question 8

Should I install a programmable thermostat ?

Accepted Answer

A programmable thermostat can cut your cooling costs by as much as 25%.

Question 9

Should the thermostat fan be set to auto or on?

Accepted Answer

Setting the fan to “auto” will help keep your cooling costs down, because it will only run when it needs to in order to maintain the desired temperature .

Question 10

How do I know when it’s time to replace my AC system?

Accepted Answer

If your AC is more than 10 years old, if it’s not cooling like it used to or, if your electric bill seems higher than it should be, it’s probably time to start looking.

Accepted Answer

My AC suddenly stopped working, what should I do
