Q&A
How can I tell if my heat pump's reversing valve is failing, and what should I do?
If your heat pump is stuck in one mode (only heating or only cooling) or you hear a hissing noise, the reversing valve may be failing. This is a common issue in our climate. Don't ignore it, as it can lead to system failure. Contact Ahk Heating & Air Conditioning for a professional diagnosis. Our technicians can test the valve, check for refrigerant issues, and perform the precise repair to restore proper function to your system.
How often should I change my air filter in Leonardo, NJ, to prevent clogs?
In our area, with seasonal pollen and typical household dust, we recommend checking your standard 1-inch air filter monthly and replacing it every 1-3 months. Homes with pets or allergy sufferers may need more frequent changes. A clogged filter restricts airflow, strains your system, and increases energy bills. During your seasonal maintenance visit, our technicians can assess your filter type and recommend the optimal schedule for your home.
What preventative maintenance do you recommend to avoid common HVAC problems?
We recommend bi-annual professional tune-ups—once before the cooling season and once before heating season. This service includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical components, lubricating moving parts, and testing the reversing valve and other critical components. This proactive approach, tailored to our local weather patterns, helps prevent the most common breakdowns, improves efficiency, and extends the life of your system, saving you money and hassle.
