Insufficient Airflow Is a Sign That You Need AC Maintenance

One of the most common problems with AC units is insufficient airflow. You can usually tell this is happening if the room isn’t getting as cool as it used to or if the unit is running for a longer time than usual. There are several possible causes of insufficient airflow, such as a blockage in the ductwork, a clogged air filter, or a broken motor. If you’re experiencing any of these problems, don’t hesitate to give Gundlach’s a call. Our AC services can give your unit a boost by solving the problem so you can have fresh and steady airflow to help ensure you have proper cooling power in these warmer seasons.

Water Leaks Mean an AC Unit Needs Attention

Another common issue with AC units is water leaks. Air conditioners use refrigerants to cool properties, but sometimes they do more than just produce passive condensation. You can usually tell if you have a water leak by checking to see if there’s pooled water near the AC unit or if you recognize any active leaks. If you suspect you have a water leak, it’s important to call a Gundlach’s professional right away. AC repairs are much cheaper and less time-consuming than repairing water damage to your home.

Bad Odors Are an Indication That You May Need AC Repair

If your AC unit is giving off an unpleasant smell, it’s likely that something is wrong. This could be a sign that the refrigerant is leaking, which can cause serious structural issues in the long run. It’s best to deal with the issue before it becomes smellier and more pungent. Duct cleaning is one way to try to alleviate bad smells, but in some cases, the accumulation in the ductwork is too severe and a quick diagnostic visit will tell us whether your air conditioner needs more complete maintenance. Hire Gundlach’s team of air conditioning technicians to alleviate your nose and your concerns.

Unusual Noises Are a Call for Air Conditioning Help

If you’re hearing strange noises coming from your AC unit, it may be trying to tell you something. Rattling, humming, or hissing sounds can all be signs that there’s something wrong. These problems could be caused by many different issues. For example, rattling and buzzing noises are often linked with loose parts within the unit. Meanwhile, whistling and grinding are signals of something more serious. Whatever the cause, it’s important to have it checked out by a Gundlach’s professional before it gets worse. We’ll assist you in locating the issue and providing you with proper AC maintenance suggestions so you can keep your place cool and comfortable without any hiccups.
