Common Questions
How can I tell if my HVAC system was improperly installed in my Baton Rouge home?
Signs of a poor installation include uneven cooling/heating between rooms, unusually high energy bills, frequent breakdowns, and excessive noise. These issues are common here due to our high humidity and heat. We perform a comprehensive evaluation to identify installation flaws, like incorrect ductwork sizing or refrigerant charge, and provide a precise correction to restore efficiency and comfort.
Why does my AC unit's capacitor fail so often during Louisiana summers?
Capacitors help start your AC's compressor and fan motors. During our extended Baton Rouge heatwaves, these components cycle on and off constantly, causing immense strain and overheating, which leads to premature capacitor failure. We use high-quality, durable replacement capacitors suited for our climate and can assess if other issues, like a failing motor, are contributing to the repeated failures.
What should I do if my AC suddenly stops blowing cold air on a hot day?
A sudden loss of cooling is often due to a failed capacitor or a tripped safety switch from an overworked system. First, check your circuit breaker. If it's not tripped, it's likely a capacitor or electrical issue. For Baton Rouge homeowners, we recommend calling us immediately for a diagnosis to prevent further damage to the compressor, which is a much costlier repair.
