FAQs
Why is my outdoor AC unit corroding, and how can R and D Air help prevent it in Jessup?
The high humidity in our Jessup area accelerates corrosion on metal condenser coils and housings. This corrosion reduces efficiency and can lead to refrigerant leaks. R and D Air helps by performing seasonal maintenance that includes cleaning the coils, checking for early signs of rust, and applying protective coatings where appropriate to extend your unit's lifespan and maintain its performance.
What are the signs of a clogged condensate drain, and how do you fix it?
Common signs include water pooling around your indoor furnace/air handler, musty odors, or your system shutting off unexpectedly. A clogged drain is a frequent issue here due to algae and mold growth in our humid climate. R and D Air's technicians will safely clear the blockage using specialized vacuums and tools, then may apply an algaecide tablet to the drain pan to help prevent future clogs and protect your home from water damage.
What kind of HVAC maintenance do Jessup homes need to avoid these common problems?
We recommend bi-annual maintenance—once in spring for your cooling system and once in fall for heating. Our Jessup-specific tune-up includes cleaning the outdoor condenser to prevent corrosion buildup, flushing and treating the condensate drain line to prevent clogs, checking refrigerant levels, and inspecting all electrical components. This proactive care improves efficiency, prevents unexpected failures, and saves you money on energy bills.
