Martin Heat & Air | HVAC Services in Garfield, AR 72732

This is a common issue in our Garfield climate, often caused by a faulty capacitor, motor, or debris. First, turn off the power to the unit at your breaker. Check for and clear any visible debris like leaves or grass clippings around the fan. If it's clear, the problem is likely electrical or mechanical. Don't attempt to force the fan, as this can cause further damage. Call us at Martin Heat & Air for a professional diagnosis and repair to get your cooling back on track efficiently and safely.

Our local humidity makes ducts prone to condensation and mold. The best prevention is maintaining proper humidity levels with a well-functioning AC and ensuring your ductwork is properly sealed and insulated. We recommend professional duct cleaning every 3-5 years and annual HVAC maintenance checks, where we inspect for moisture and air quality issues. Installing a UV light air purifier in your system can also effectively inhibit mold and bacterial growth, improving your home's overall air quality.

Proactive maintenance is key. We recommend a bi-annual tune-up—once in spring for your AC and once in fall for your heater. These visits include cleaning condenser coils (to prevent fan strain), checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical components, cleaning drain lines to prevent moisture buildup, and changing air filters regularly. This routine care helps prevent the outdoor unit failures and indoor mold issues common in our area, extends your system's life, and keeps it running efficiently to manage energy costs.
