  3. AC Repair – How to Proceed When Your AC Refused to Work • Before going any further, be sure to check that the thermostat is set to the "Cool" position. You may have problems if your thermostat is set to "Heat" or "Off". You should also ensure that the thermostat is not set above the room temperature. • Now, check the circuit breaker and ensure that it is functioning properly. Any problem with the circuit breaker would keep your AC from turning on because it controls the condensing unit or compression. You should first check the 240-volt circuit breaker and then check the 120-volt circuit breaker that usually controls the furnace blower. They should function properly when in the "ON" position.

  4. AC Repair – How to Proceed When Your AC Refused to Work • If you notice that the circuit breaker is tripped, you may have to reset it or even have to replace the fuse. A very important thing to bear in mind is that sometimes the fuse will blow again when you replace it and try to turn your air conditioning system on. If that is the case, do not try anything different and call a technical for AC repair. A fuse that blows again usually indicates a more serious electrical problem and you should let an expert take care of it. • Be sure to check all the switches around your air conditioner. Ensure that those switches are turned on – this also applies to the external safety switch, which you may find next to the condensing unit. • Have a look at the condensate tray because it sometimes comes with a sensor switch that can turn the AC off when there is water on the tray. Remove the water and turn that switch on again.

  5. Two Common Performance Issues Related to AC Repair • Many people complain about poor airflow from the vents and it could be due to a number of underlying problems. A dirty air filter is the most common cause, but it could also happen due to dirty or blocked ductwork. • In addition to poor airflow, many people often complain about an air conditioner that fails to dehumidify air as efficiently as it should be. You may experience this issue when your AC system is a bit too large for your house. You may have an oversized AC system if you always notice that it fails to dehumidify adequately. You experience the problem because the system cools the air fast, and when it happens, the thermostat gets into the action and shuts off the system.

  6. Furnace Repair Help – Know What to Do When You Have a Dead Furnace • Be sure to check the thermostat carefully, especially if it is a programmable one. You have to ensure that the switch is not on "Cool" and is on "Heat" instead. • Now, check the temperature setting. It is important to ensure the temperature setting of the thermostat is higher than the room temperature. Usually, it is enough to set the thermostat temperature five degrees higher than your room temperature. Making this change usually makes the furnace work again. • If you do not get a functional furnace yet, you may have to check the program and ensure that it displays the right day and time.

  7. Furnace Repair Help – Know What to Do When You Have a Dead Furnace • Check the thermostat wires carefully and ensure that they have no breaks. You are likely to find a break here if you have recently done some remodelling. Keep in mind that if you find a break even in one of those thin wires, the furnace may refuse to work. The good thing is that you can easily fix the wire though – just splice it back together and use some electrical tape to cover it properly. • Another issue keeping the furnace from working efficiently is that you have a poor battery. In many cases, the thermostat setting will change to the default if you have a dead battery. Therefore, it is better to be on the safe side and change the battery. • The thermostat may cause problems when there is dirt and debris in and around it. You need to clean it properly and also ensure that it is level on the wall.

  8. Maintenance Tips to Avoid Costly Furnace Repair • Check the burner flames carefully. The color of the flames can tell a lot about your furnace. Simply turn up your thermostat to turn your furnace on. Ideally, the burner flames need to be even and blue. Sometimes, you will notice that the burner flames are yellow. You notice yellow flames when burners are very dirty. While checking the flames, ensure that you do not breathe on them because the oxygen can make them look yellow. If you notice that burners are extremely dirty, you can clean them yourself, but do not try to do it if you have little knowledge about it. Letting a pro adjust the burners is always a better choice. • Try to vacuum the burners to help them work perfectly. Be sure to turn off the power – do not forget to cut the gas supply before you try to vacuum the burners. Be sure to vacuum at the back of the burners. You can make it easier by using a 20-inch long drain line – simply attach it to the vacuum hose to reach those areas. You have to vacuum those burners thoroughly and ensure that you clean the furnace base as well. While cleaning the burners, you should also look for the presence of any soot. It usually indicates poor combustion.

  9. Maintenance Tips to Avoid Costly Furnace Repair • Clean the blower carefully. You will have to remove it first for which you need to remove the bolts. In most cases, you will have to use a ratchet to help remove the bolts. Again, if you do not have the tools required for cleaning and maintenance, it is better to hire a furnace repair specialist. • Replace the furnace filter. It is important to change the filter periodically or else the furnace will not function as efficiently as it should be. Ideally, you should change it every 1-3 months. A high-quality filter will also help protect the blower motor and the blower itself. You can also find more expensive filters these days, but be sure to refer to the owner's manual before you select anything because some high-efficient filters are known for restricting the airflow that puts unnecessary strain on the blower motor.
