How Often Should I Have My Equipment Serviced?

Heating and air conditioning equipment should be serviced, at a minimum, once a year. We recommend scheduling an appointment the Fall to check your heating systems and again in Spring for service on your air conditioner. Proactivity is the best way to ensure that your household will be comfortable all year long.

How Do I Know If I Should Have My Air Ducts Cleaned?

If you notice that your HVAC systems are not working as well as they did in the past, or if you notice an uptick in allergic reactions or illnesses in your home—you should get your air ducts inspected and cleaned to remove pollen, bacteria, and dust mites.

What Size Cooling/Heating System Do I Need?

A unit that is too large for your home can actually increase the amount of humidity present in your home. A unit that is too small will be unable to maintain a stable, constant temperature, especially in extreme weather conditions. Many factors go into determining the size of the system. Including type of house and walls, type and size of windows, insulation, basement and attic conditions, house orientation, and others. Our experienced technicians will analyze your home and recommend the perfect unit for your home.

How Often Should I Check My Air Filter?

Monthly. If you have a disposable filter, if it is dirty, replace it with a brand-new filter. If you have a replaceable filter, turn off your unit and remove the filter. Using a water source with powerful water pressure, spray the filter on both sides. Next, shake the filter off to remove excess water and let it dry completely before putting it back in its place.

How Do I Take Care of My Outside Air Conditioning Unit?

A/C Units are designed to withstand outdoor elements but there are actions you can take to ensure it operates appropriately. Keep the area around your unit free of debris like leaves and grass clippings. Do not plant any shrubs, flowers, or trees within two feet of your a/c. Keep gates and fences locked to prevent theft.

What Is The Average Lifespan Of An A/C Unit?

In the United States, the average life expectancy is approximately 15-20 years but because of the coastal nature of our climate and the intense our area experiences for the majority of the year, it may be shorter due to higher levels of saltwater and sulfur. In areas with subtropical environments, owners may see shorter life spans because their AC systems are used consistently and have the added burden of combating excessive moisture in the air.

What Is The Optimal Level Of Humidity When Heating My Home?

The indoor range is around 35% relative humidity, but 30% to 40% tends to work best for many homes. If you go above this level, condensation on the windows can occur, breeding mold that leads to allergy and respiratory problems.

What Is the Average Cost Of An A/C Unit?

Your AC unit cost will largely depend on the size you need. If your home is 1,600 square feet, a 2.5-ton air conditioner will cool it well and cost between $3,000 and $4,000. Val Air’s technicians will discuss the best options for your home and budget once they inspect your home and analyze the problem.
