When it comes to HVAC in Wellington, FL, we get amazingly mild temperatures throughout the coldest days of the winter. It truly is paradise here!

While we don’t need to prepare our homes for ice and snow, we do need to prepare for a loss of efficiency as we’re still using air conditioners to cool our homes and heat pumps to heat them on those few chilly nights.

Today, we’re going to talk about 5 major tips that could help you run your AC or heat pump more effectively, and basically give you lower utility bills through tighter energy efficiency.

What’s the Big Deal With Compressor Repairs?

November 8th, 2021

Every air conditioner has a compressor, it’s true! If you have cooling equipment in your home that doesn’t use pressurized refrigerant, then you’re probably thinking of fans or dehumidifiers. Air conditioning systems, as we know them today, always have to have some kind of compressing component that uses pressurized refrigerant to absorb heat and move it.

So, it might make perfect sense that we end up talking about this vital component of your AC system. The phrase “problem with your compressor” is probably one of the scariest things a homeowner can hear when they call for a diagnosis, because it’s usually going to mean an expensive repair bill is on the horizon. However, we’d like to give this kind of AC repair in Wellington, FL a silver lining.

Let’s talk about compressor problems, why they’re so expensive, and how you can plan ahead when you’re dealing with one!
