Even in Florida, the odds of your furnace developing problems is significantly higher during the winter than at other times. We’re going to go out on a limb and assume that you don’t want your furnace to lose efficiency, or break down, or explode (that last one is unlikely) in the middle of a cold winter day. In order to prevent that, there are a few steps you can take to keep your system functioning.

While most of the rest of the country prepares for the heating season, we continue to rely on our air conditioners to keep us cool during the daylight hours. While comfort is important, of course, so is cost-effectiveness. Nobody likes to choose between getting a massive bill at the end of every month or going without climate control. Fortunately, there are a couple of different things that you can do to help improve your air conditioner efficiency. Read on to find out how!
The weather is only going to get hotter over the next few weeks, which means you’re going to be relying on your heat pump that much more to keep your home cool. More demand means more stress, which means a greater opportunity for issues to occur. You may not be able to fully mitigate the chances of a problem developing with your heat pump, but you can reduce the damage as much as possible. The best way to do that is to call for repairs as soon as you notice a warning sign that something is wrong with your system. Have a look at some of the warning signs that your heat pump is in need of repair.
The days continue to heat up, which means you’re probably running your air conditioner for at least a couple hours on a daily basis. Of course, more use means more wear and tear, which means more problems. More chances for problems to develop, at least. One of the first warning signs that an air conditioner is experiencing problems is strange noises coming from the system. Let’s take a look at some noises that should get your attention, and what causes them.
Oftentimes, it’s the most minor thing that can bring disaster to a system. A single line of code, a relatively miniscule exhaust port, the one linchpin that everything rests on in order to function properly. Believe it or not, a similar weak point exists in your furnace. The air filter is there to prevent dust and debris of various kinds from blowing into the system, and causing problems with its operation. It does this job well, capturing various contaminants as they flow in from the ducts. The problem, though, is that the air filter has no way of getting rid of the contaminants that it collects. If the system isn’t cleaned or replaced every few months, it will eventually become clogged. That’s when the serious problems start.
