What causes heating system problems?

The heating system in your home can suffer several problems, some which may be more serious than others. Common problems that we see when we get calls to inspect these units are:

  • Thermostat Problems: If you notice a difference between the set temperature and the actual temperature in the home, your thermostat could be showing the early signs of a breakdown.
  • Dirty Filters: Dirty filters will cause the unit to function poorly, running up your energy bill because it will have to use more energy to work. Consider investing in permanent filters. These will save you money and you will only have to clean them once a month.
  • Imbalanced Dampers: Dampers not being balanced is also a leading cause of heater problems. The ducts the air travels through has a damper that puts a restriction on the flow of the air. If the dampers are not properly balanced, some rooms of the home might heat or cool much faster than others.

If your home has a fireplace and it’s in need of service, let us know. We also offer professional fireplace services in the Hudson area.

What are signs you need to repair or replace your water heater?

There are many signs you might need to either repair or replace your water heater. Below you’ll find a list of reasons why you may want to repair or place your system.

Replace

  • Age: A unit that is close to ten years old will start malfunctioning to the point where you will lose more money on repairs than replacements.
  • Works Only Occasionally: A unit that only works sometimes and turns on and off will have to be replaced.
  • Leaks: Leaks point to a unit that has the outside broken. This tends to be due to age or rust, and so replacing the unit is the best option.

Repairs

  • Popping Sounds: A common sign that your water heater might need repairs include a weird popping or sizzling noise when the unit is in use, this points toward sediment in the bottom of the tank.
  • Leaking Pressure Valve: A leaking pressure valve is also an issue that points toward need of repair along with leaking pipes that supply the water to the heater.

Why should you replace your air conditioning system?

Air conditioning systems have a typical lifespan of 8-10 years, if your cooling system is older than that you should consider a replacement. As a homeowner you do not want to be stuck without an air conditioning system in your home, or constantly paying for repairs that are only short-term solutions. Replacing your cooling system could ensure that your home continues getting steady cooling when you need it most.

If there are rooms of your home that are very cool while others are very warm, you should replace your cooling system. A properly functioning cooling system will keep all of the rooms of your home at a steady temperature throughout.
