Your air conditioner has multiple parts. Some of the main parts include an evaporator and a condenser. The condenser takes hot gaseous vapors from the compressor (another major component in your A/C system) and rapidly cools the vapors into condensation. If the condenser is not working properly, then the rest of the parts in the air conditioner are not going to work either. Here is how HVAC technicians diagnose and repair problems with your air conditioner's condenser.

The end of the year is near – that means air conditioners are shut down and furnaces are fired up.

After heavy rains and severe weather, problems like leaks, flooding, and water damage can cause a lot of problems with your home. You may hear a lot about dealing with these problems, but what about mechanical systems like the HVAC system? There may be damage to ducts, the AC unit, and other equipment. The following tips will help deal damage to your AC after flooding, severe weather, and water have caused serious damage to your home.

Your home's air conditioning system is a major investment, so it makes sense to fix problems as they come up and attempt to keep it operating for as long as possible. Unfortunately, mechanical systems will all eventually fail, and the components of your air conditioning system are no different.

Any major work on your home requires choosing and working with professional contractors. Your home is likely your family's most important possession, and you want only the best people working on it. This is never truer than it is with HVAC work. Although you may not give much thought to your HVAC system when it is working properly, selecting the best contractors is vitally important any time repairs, upgrades, or new installations are needed.

Your playful pup or precious kitty may be one of the most beloved members of the household, but if you do have an indoor pet in your home, it can mean you will have a little more maintenance and cleaning to do. Most cats and dogs naturally shed hair and dander from their skin, which can get into your central air conditioning system and cause problems with indoor air quality. To make sure you are not facing repercussions because you have your pets in the house, there are a few practical maintenance rules to keep in mind with your central AC.

Furnaces are like people. Whey they are healthy, you hardly hear them. When they are unhealthy, they make a lot of noise. If you have a noisy furnace, it may or may not be "healthy" based on the type of furnace it is. It is safe to assume, however, that a furnace that was not particularly noisy or unusually noisy before and is now making all kinds of noise is probably in need of repair.

Maintaining a comfortable climate in your home when it's hot outside is not only a luxury; it's a requirement. Trying to feel at peace in a house where the air conditioning (AC) isn't blasting can seem next to impossible. However, the main problem with running the AC is usually the price. Keeping your AC on can get costly and if you're tired of dealing with rising energy expenses you need to carefully consider whether or not the following issues are the source of the problem.
