In the summertime, a Kensington home can either provide a cool reprieve from blazing temperatures or be subject to the same level of discomfort as is experienced outdoors. Working cooling systems are a necessity for surviving extreme summer temperatures. When yours is out of order, not only does your home become an unbearable hot box, but it can become dangerous for most vulnerable in your home as well.
Untimely system failures can be avoided by scheduling an annual tune-up with your local Buric professional. Our technicians are ready to serve Kensington residents and their air systems need all summer long.
Kensington Air Conditioning Services
Yearly tune-ups can help catch and prevent many air conditioning problems before they occur. Eventually, however, air conditioners will need to be replaced when they reach the end of their lifespans. Buric technicians are trained to spot potential problems, alert homeowners to when their air conditioners are nearing the end of their usefulness, and offer replacement options when the time comes. Learn more about our cooling services below.
Air Conditioner Regular Maintenance
On average, an HVAC air conditioner will last between 10 and 15 years with regular maintenance. Ductless mini-split systems can run for up to 20 years before needing replacement. Like your vehicle, regular maintenance on these machines will help internal parts last as long as possible and support system efficiency from year to year.
Help your air conditioner run at peak performance by scheduling a tune-up with your Kensington Buric professional today. For an air conditioner tune-up, a skilled technician will perform the following:
- Clean coils.
- Remove debris from the area around the outside unit.
- Inspect ducts and air handlers.
- Replace the air filter if needed.
- Test and recalibrate the thermostat.
- And more…
Air Conditioner Repair
Even with regular maintenance, some parts will need repair before the total replacement of an air conditioner. For instance, a fan belt can be easily swapped out with a new one by a trained professional, which is typically a simple and inexpensive repair. Other parts, such as the motor, may be cost-prohibitive to repair. At this point, it might make more sense to replace the entire unit, especially if it is nearing the end of its life or has required multiple repairs in a short period of time.
You may need to repair your air conditioner if you experience any of the following:
- The unit is not turning on.
- The unit is not supplying adequate cooling.
- Uneven cooling from room to room.
- Higher than normal energy bills.
- Little to no airflow from vents.
- The thermostat doesn’t seem to work.
- The unit is making strange noises.
- The unit is emitting strange smells.
- The unit is running continuously, never switches off.
- The unit is leaking fluid.
Air Conditioner Replacement and Installation
When repair becomes too expensive or your air conditioning unit is more than 10 years old, a replacement unit may become necessary. Buric experts can explain the options that will work best for your home’s unique needs. You may choose to stick with the same brand and style of air conditioner, or you can even upgrade to a more efficient model to lower your long-term costs. Whatever you decide, the professionals at Buric Heating and Air will provide you with an accurate estimate and explain the process of replacement service.
If you recently built an addition to your home or have never been satisfied with the cooling levels experienced with your system, it may be time to upgrade to a model better suited for your home. Our technicians will properly measure your space to determine the right system and models required to adequately cool your home.
