Don’t wait for a total breakdown in the Florida heat to realize your cooling system is struggling. At Total Air Systems, we believe proactive care is the best way to save money and stay comfortable. If you notice these four red flags, it is time to call in the experts for a professional AC repair.
Strange Noises Coming from the Unit
If your air conditioner starts making grinding, squealing, or banging sounds, it is trying to tell you something is wrong. These noises often indicate a loose belt, a failing motor, or broken internal components. Ignoring these sounds can lead to catastrophic failure, so address them quickly with a professional air conditioner tune-up.
Weak Airflow or Warm Air
Is your home taking longer to cool down, or do some rooms feel warmer than others? Weak airflow or blowing warm air are classic signs of a compressor issue or restricted ducts. Our team at Total Air Systems can diagnose the root cause, ensuring your AC maintenance keeps the air flowing crisp and cold.
Frequent Cycling and High Energy Bills
An AC unit that turns on and off constantly is "short-cycling," which puts immense strain on the system. You will likely see this reflected in a sudden spike in your monthly utility costs. A standard tune-up can often recalibrate the system, improving efficiency and lowering those high energy bills before summer hits.
Unusual Odors or High Humidity
Your air conditioner should naturally dehumidify your home while keeping it fresh. If you smell musty odors or feel a "sticky" atmosphere indoors, you may have mold growth or a failing evaporator coil. Professional AC maintenance ensures your system remains clean and capable of maintaining the perfect, healthy indoor environment for your family.
Your comfort shouldn’t be a guessing game. At Total Air Systems, we provide fast, reliable AC repair and maintenance to Volusia County residents. Whether you need a simple tune-up or a complex fix, our expert technicians are here to help. Contact us today to schedule your service and keep your home cool all season.
