Signs Your HVAC Unit Needs Repair

When it comes to your home’s HVAC system, identifying problems can be tricky. Many times, the signs of trouble are subtle and hard to notice. That’s why regular maintenance and repairs by licensed professionals are so important – they know exactly what to look for in order to keep your system running smoothly. But if you do find yourself with an ailing unit, here are some common signs that indicate it may need professional attention: 

• Unusual noises - When your HVAC unit is running, you should hear a low hum and not much else. If you notice any loud or strange noises coming from the system, it could be an indication that parts are loose or something needs to be replaced. 
• Poor air flow - Weak airflow can indicate several issues stemming from clogged filters to improper AC setup. If your home isn’t cooling as well as it used to, then contact us for help!
• Increased humidity levels - One of the key functions of your HVAC system is controlling humidity levels in your home or business. If you start seeing excess moisture or condensation on windows and other surfaces, then this usually means there's an underlying issue with your ducts and vents.
• High energy bills - An unexpected spike in energy bills often indicates that something’s wrong with the unit itself – either its age has caught up with it or one of its components needs repair/replacement due to wear and tear over time. 

If you think that your home or business is in need of maintenance or repair, contact us at Reliable Home Comfort today! Our experienced technicians will be able to diagnose and resolve any HVAC issues quickly and efficiently so that you can get back to comfortable living. 

Unusual Sounds Coming From HVAC System

Unusual sounds coming from your heating or cooling unit can be unsettling, especially when you rely on these systems to maintain your home's comfort. These noises often serve as warning signs, indicating potential issues within the heating or air conditioning system. Understanding the various types of heater and air conditioner noises and their meanings is crucial for addressing problems promptly and ensuring your HVAC system functions efficiently.

Here are common types of HVAC noises and what they might indicate:

Banging or Popping: This noise can be caused by the system's ductwork expanding and contracting due to temperature changes, or it might suggest issues with a gas furnace like dirty burners.

Rumbling or Booming: A deep, rumbling sound may result from sediment buildup in the bottom of a water heater tank, affecting efficiency and potentially causing damage.

Whistling or Hissing: High-pitched whistling or hissing can signify issues with air or water pressure, such as a malfunctioning valve or a water leak, in both heating and cooling systems.

Clicking or Ticking: These noises might be related to the system's normal operation, like the expansion and contraction of metal, or they could indicate a faulty relay or control.

Squealing or Screeching: Shrill sounds could suggest a problem with the blower motor or a belt in both forced-air heating and cooling systems.

If you observe any of these noises in your Los Angeles heating or air conditioning unit, it's crucial to investigate and address the issue promptly. Ignoring unusual sounds can lead to reduced efficiency or system breakdown. In many cases, a professional HVAC technician can diagnose and resolve these issues, ensuring your system operates smoothly and quietly, maintaining your home's comfort.
