Why does my air conditioning smell like dirty socks?

Typically, we notice the smell of dirty socks or stinky feet when dealing with a dirty or clogged air conditioner. The odor comes from sitting water that is not draining properly and thus collects and begins to smell. A thorough, professional cleaning can resolve the issue.

My AC is making loud noises, is it about to break down?

If your air conditioner is louder than usual, you do need to have it checked. But noisy air conditioners can usually be repaired if you call for service. It could just be something simple like the motor or a misaligned fan blade.

My AC is freezing up, what can we do about it?

Ice on the coils is a sign that there's a refrigerant leak either on the AC's inside air handler or outdoor condenser. Both have coils that can freeze. Your AC won't work properly until the leak is fixed.

Can just my outdoor unit be replaced or does the indoor unit need to be replaced with it?

If your air conditioning equipment is loaded with R-22 refrigerant, we recommend that you replace both units. Otherwise, you can replace just one unit without the other but keep in mind that the energy efficiency in totality will suffer.

I'm choosing a new air conditioner, what are split systems and packaged units?

A split system air conditioner contains an air handler and coil, or a furnace and coil, with an outdoor condenser unit. This is the most common residential HVAC system. A packaged air conditioning system has all these components contained in one package rather than an indoor and outdoor unit. Packaged air conditioners are more often used in commercial settings or for multi-family complexes.

Residential Air Conditioner Repairs
Even the most efficient residential air conditioning systems experience occasional operational problems. When your air conditioner exhibits signs of trouble, it's important that you contact our ac company in Spring Hill as soon as possible. The longer you let the problem go, more than likely, the bigger it will get. A simple repair could turn into a major repair. We will get your air conditioner back on track with as little disruption to your comfort as possible.

Your Air Conditioner may be trying to tell you something if it's:

                * Making strange noises
                * Leaking fluid
                * Incapable of starting
                * Running inconsistently
                * Not cooling properly

Below is a list of troubleshooting tests that you can perform before you call us.

Ensure that the thermostat is set lower than the temperature of the room
Double check to make sure that the control switch is set on “cool.”
If you’re thermostat is programmable, replace the batteries.
Slide the fan control switch from the “auto” setting to “on” setting. The blower should run, if it does, there is power. If it doesn’t, the control switch may be burned out or the power may be disconnected.
If the system has a furnace for heat, ensure that the emergency control switch is on.
Check your circuit breaker panel, look for blown fuses or tripped breakers. If the fuse is blown, or the breaker is tripped fix this problem once. If it trips, or blows, again, do not try it again. Call us immediately, it could mean you have a much bigger problem. Continuing to flip the breaker or replace the fuse, can lead to even bigger problems. Please call our Spring Hill air conditioning company asap. If the fuse isn’t blown or the breaker hasn’t been tripped, please move on to Step 7.
Slide the thermostat control switch over to "cool" and slide the fan control switch over to "auto" move the temperature setting to the lowest setting. If both units are running and it is still not cooling, call us at 352-600-4443.

If you perform all of the troubleshooting suggestions but still continue to have problems with your air conditioning please do not try to fix it yourself. More than likely, if you do, you will make it worse. It may even end up costing you more than to having us fix it for you.

Residential Installation and Replacement Services
A reliable air conditioner is an important part of any Florida home. Making it through the long, hot summer means a quality air conditioner is a necessary investment.

Your air conditioner doesn’t necessarily need to completely break down to justify a replacement. A decrease in efficiency, frequent repairs and even the age of the system will help you determine whether or not your air conditioner should be repaired or replaced. Our Spring Hill air conditioning company will ensure that you make the best choice for your situation.

When trying to decide if you need a new air conditioner or an air conditioning replacement, there are many important variables to consider. First, you must be sure that your new system is appropriately sized for your home. Too small and it will struggle to reach the desired temperature, which will reduce it’s efficiency. If it is to big, it will bring temperatures down too quickly, which will have a negative impact on the comfort level in your home. In addition, it puts your system at a greater risk for damage.

Residential air conditioners will not operate as efficiently and effectively as they could if they are not installed by a reliable, professional air conditioning expert. When you are ready to schedule your AC installation or replacement service, call us at 352-600-4443. We’ll make sure that your new air conditioner is installed properly.
