How to Keep Your Cool When the Mercury is Rising

When the heat is rising to record-breaking levels, it can be really tough to stay cool. This summer, I found that my air conditioner had trouble keeping up with the temperatures. It wasn't that the AC wasn't working, it was just that I couldn't seem to get my house cooled down as much as I wanted. I worried that I would have to replace the whole AC system. Luckily, I have a good friend who works as an HVAC contractor. He took a look at my system and gave good news -- it didn't need to be replaced. Instead, he shared a lot of tips for helping my air conditioner work more efficiently, as well as some ideas to help supplement the AC and keep the house cooler. I'm using those tips to create this blog to share ways for all of us to keep cool on the hottest days.

Signs You're Ready For A New Air Conditioning Installation

If you need to have a new air conditioning installation done, have your HVAC specialist do it for you. This is a specialist who handles both the heating and cooling features of the home and they should be able to serve you well. 

Here are signs you are ready for a new air conditioning installation. This advice can be used if you plan on putting in a new window or wall unit, or if you have an HVAC system that includes another type of AC unit for your home.

Your air conditioner is coming loose from its frame

An older AC unit that is coming loose from its frame may need to be replaced. Not just because it's worn out, but because it may be shaken from its original components and in need of a replacement. You can get a new air conditioning frame and other compartments to make a wall or window unit fit more easily via your HVAC contractor. You can also get a new air conditioning installation done with either the current or a new air conditioner to ensure you have a tighter fit and the unit won't come loose again.

Your air conditioner is starting to fail

If you have an air conditioner that is no longer working as it should, you have a few options. First, you can opt to repair the unit, which may be what your HVAC specialist recommends. Or, you can have the unit replaced and have a whole new air conditioning installation done, which may be what your HVAC specialist recommends if you have lots of issues with your unit, it's not meeting your needs, or if the costs to repair are more than what it costs to just replace the unit.

Your air conditioner is not efficient

An inefficient air conditioner is going to cost you a lot to operate and will also not effectively cool your home. It's going to take up a lot of space in your home and ultimately be less beneficial than a replacement unit might be. You can get a new air conditioning installation done to offset the lack of benefits you get with your current AC unit. Your HVAC specialist will show you the units they have available to help you get the most out of your selections based on your budget and what you need.

You're in control, and you can get the right AC installation for your needs and budget. Speak to your HVAC specialist to learn more.
