A Plus Air Conditioning & Heating | Reliable HVAC Services in Clintonville, WI

The most common sign is your AC running constantly but not cooling your home effectively. Refrigerant is the lifeblood of your cooling system; a leak reduces its ability to absorb heat, forcing the unit to work harder. This not only leaves you uncomfortable but also increases wear and tear and leads to higher energy bills. Our technicians use advanced electronic leak detectors to find and repair leaks efficiently, then recharge your system to the manufacturer's precise specifications.

Start by checking your air filter—a dirty filter restricts airflow, making your furnace work much harder. Next, ensure all your vents are open and unblocked by furniture or curtains. If those are fine, the issue is often with the furnace itself, like a dirty burner, faulty flame sensor, or issues with ductwork allowing heat to escape into your attic or crawl spaces. We recommend a professional furnace tune-up, which includes cleaning critical components and checking for efficiency losses, to directly address the causes of high heating costs.

Absolutely. A refrigerant leak can reduce your AC's efficiency by 20% or more, meaning it uses significantly more electricity to do the same job. Repairing it restores peak performance. Similarly, a neglected furnace can become 10-30% less efficient over time. A professional tune-up cleans and adjusts the system for optimal combustion and airflow, directly lowering the amount of fuel it uses. For many Clintonville homeowners, these services lead to noticeable savings on their next utility bill, making them a smart investment in home comfort and cost control.
