Your HVAC unit can get into quite a mess if you don’t give it some love every once in a while. It can develop a boatload of issues that can render it as good as useless.

Knowing what common HVAC problems to look out for is key to declining the life of your home heating system. Luckily, we’re here to help.

We’re here to give you a list of the most common HVAC problems that pop up in systems all around the US. Let’s get started!

  1. Dirty Filters

Dirty filters can restrict the flow of air and reduce efficiency, leading to poor air quality, more frequent air conditioner repairs, and higher energy bills. Dirty filters can also cause the system to over-work and eventually cause dangerous and costly HVAC system failure. To avoid this, be sure to inspect your filters often.

If the filter is excessively dirty, it should be replaced right away. By routinely replacing the filter, you can extend the life of your HVAC system and maintain efficient system performance. Frequently cleaning and replacing filters can have the added benefit of reducing harmful allergens, pollutants, and dust in your home.

  1. Thermostat Issues

If a thermostat stops working or performs inconsistently, then it will cause the HVAC system to cycle on and off too frequently, fail to properly cool or heat a home, or possibly not even turn on at all. Thermostats may have compatibility issues if their sensors are not correctly calibrated or if it is failing to register their environment accurately. Issues such as loose wiring or dead batteries can also cause malfunctions in the thermostat.

If you encounter any of the above problems, you should promptly hire qualified and affordable quality services to ensure the safe operation of your heating and cooling system.

  1. Leaking Ducts

Leaking ducts are one of the most frustrating common HVAC problems. A leaking duct wastes energy and forces your HVAC system to work harder to maintain temperature and humidity levels, and can raise your energy bills significantly.

Look out for water stains, musty odors, or hearing flapping or banging near the ducts. In some cases, it may be necessary to seal or replace the ducts entirely. Periodic air duct cleaning and maintenance help prevent is also recommended.

  1. Refrigerant Leaks

Low cooling or heating performance is one of the first signs of a refrigerant leak and can be an indicator of a much more severe issue. Poor indoor air quality, the sound of hissing or bubbling, or the presence of an oily residue can all be symptoms of a refrigerant leak.

If you notice any of these signs, you should contact a professional as soon as possible. Refrigerant leaks can lead to significant performance decreases in your HVAC system and can sometimes be dangerous.

  1. Wear and Tear

Wearing and tearing involve the system not performing efficiently. This could manifest itself in different ways, including frequent cycling,  poor airflow, poor air quality, discoloration from rust or corrosion, strange noises from the system, temperature fluctuations, and higher energy bills.

It’s important to have an HVAC professional inspect and service your system regularly to ensure that it’s operating at peak performance and without any issues.

Be More Aware to Avoid More Serious HVAC Problems

Common HVAC problems can cause annoying and costly issues if not addressed immediately. If you experience any of these issues, contact an HVAC technician to diagnose and repair the problem.

Don’t wait – take action now before more costly damage is done.
