The worst time to discover your air conditioner is failing is the first sweltering afternoon of the year — exactly when every HVAC company in the Triangle is slammed. Catch these warning signs in spring and you'll beat the rush and the heat.
Watch for these
Weak airflow, warm air from the vents, strange smells, unusual noises (grinding, squealing, or banging), short cycling, a spike in your power bill, and water or refrigerant pooling around the unit. Any one of these is worth a service call.
A pre-season tune-up costs a fraction of an emergency repair and catches most of these problems before they leave you sweating. Schedule yours before the rush.
