Uneven cooling is a frequent issue in our area, often caused by leaky or poorly balanced ductwork, an undersized unit, or blocked vents.

Yes, short cycling—where your system turns on and off too frequently—is urgent as it causes excessive wear and high energy bills. Common local causes include an oversized unit, a dirty air filter, low refrigerant, or a faulty thermostat. PRM's experts will pinpoint the exact cause, whether it's a simple cleaning, a refrigerant charge adjustment, or a component repair, to restore normal operation and protect your system from premature failure.

Preventative maintenance is key to avoiding uneven temperatures and short cycles. We recommend bi-annual tune-ups before summer and winter. Our thorough service includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, calibrating thermostats, inspecting electrical components, and ensuring proper airflow through your ducts. This proactive care helps your system run efficiently, identifies small issues before they become major repairs, and is the best way to maintain even comfort year-round.
