You depend on your HVAC system to keep your home at a comfortable temperature and to help contribute to better indoor air quality. That’s why it’s important to notice the signs of a struggling HVAC system so you can reach out for professional repair or replacement services when necessary. Here are three of the top signs that your HVAC system is malfunctioning.
- Higher energy bills. Energy bills are correlated with how hard your HVAC system is working, so the more you use it, the higher your energy bills will be. However, if your energy bill has recently increased significantly without any known cause, you should reach out to our team. This indicates that your system is working inefficiently and likely needs a tune-up or similar service.
- Poor temperature regulation. You expect your HVAC system to heat or cool your home when you adjust the thermostat. If your system is failing to keep your home at the temperature you set it at, there’s clearly an issue. Another example of poor temperature regulation is inconsistent heating and cooling, when one room feels drastically warmer or cooler than another room without any reason.
- Strange noises. A properly functioning HVAC system won’t be loud, so make note of any banging or rattling noises that come from your system. These can point to a number of different problems, but your HVAC repair technician will be able to tell you exactly what the problem is and how to fix it.
Ignoring warning signs of a struggling HVAC system can lead to worsening issues, so call us here at Polar Air Heating & Cooling at the first indication that something is wrong with your system.
