Summer is a great time to go out and get some sun—and then head inside to cool off. A hot summer’s day becomes unbearable when there’s no relief when you walk in the door. If you realize that the house is barely cooler than it is outside and you can’t get comfortable, it’s time to call RG Mechanical in Huntingburg, IN. We offer air conditioner repair and new air conditioner installation to keep your home comfortable during the hottest months of the year.

Signs You Need to Repair Your Air Conditioner

  • High Energy/Power Bills: If your bills are higher than normal, it’s worth the cost of having your air conditioner looked at by a professional. Typically, energy costs won’t skyrocket overnight, so an excessively high bill is likely due to an internal issue that causes your unit to work harder than necessary. An air conditioner repair can get your bill back to normal in no time.
  • Vents Emit Strange or Musty Odors: Of course, no one wants a stinky situation in the house, so if you notice a musty, strange, or offensive odor coming in when the air conditioning is on, it’s a good idea to get an air conditioner repair.
  • Frequently Cycling: Sometimes you’ll hear your air conditioner kick on, only to shut off shortly after and kick on again just a few minutes later. This endless cycling can be noisy, disruptive, and ineffective in cooling your space. Usually, this is due to either a thermostat issue or an internal problem and it’s time to call for an air conditioner repair.
  • Excessively Dirty Filters: You should be changing your air filters regularly. If you notice they are getting dirtier faster than normal, or there is an excess of dust, lint, or dirt – this could be a problem. Call for an air conditioner repair to ensure that your unit is working properly. Duct cleaning may also be recommended for a problem with dirty filters.
  • Emits Warm Air: This is likely a problem with the condenser, (which is that large metal box that sits outside of your home). The condenser could be clogged, damaged, rusted, dirty, or low on refrigerant. The only way to know for sure is to call for a professional repair.
  • Old Unit (over ten years old or higher): Air conditioners aren’t If your AC is getting up in years, it may be time to call RG Mechanical of Huntingburg, IN for air conditioner repair. meant to last forever. If you have a unit that is over 10 years old, it’s a good idea to get a thorough air conditioner repair and see if it’s time to replace your unit.
  • Strange Noises: The air conditioner should be your silent partner in the home. If you hear a banging, clanging, or wheezing coming from the unit, it’s not a good idea to simply leave the room and wait for it to quiet down. Any strange noise is a clear sign that you need an air conditioner repair before the problem gets worse.
  • The inside temperature doesn’t match what the thermostat is displaying or temperatures vary throughout your home: If the thermostat says the home is 72, but it feels like the 80s, this is clearly a problem. This could be a problem as simple as changing your thermostat batteries, or it could be a connection problem between the thermostat and the air conditioning unit itself. The best solution is to first check the thermostat to ensure it’s working properly. Then call for an air conditioner repair.

9 Benefits of a Properly Functioning Air Conditioner

Sure, sitting in a cool room is comfortable – but did you know it’s actually good for your health too? There are several mental and physical benefits that you don’t even realize are coming from your air conditioner.

  1. When you enjoy the benefits of your air conditioner, you also enjoy fewer asthma attacks, reduced risk of heatstroke, and a smaller chance of dehydration.
  2. Your sleep dramatically improves when you’re resting in a cool room.
  3. Hot, humid environments are breeding grounds for insects. When you keep your home cool and comfortable, insects are more likely to stay outside.
  4. A cooler temperature is better for the structure and appliances within your home and keeps them working better.
  5. Improved work performance when you’re working from home. A cool environment allows you to focus on the task at hand rather than constantly adjusting the fan or opening and closing the windows.
  6. A properly functioning AC produces less noise than when you are leaving the windows and doors open hoping for a cross breeze.
  7. If you live in a climate that experiences high humidity, your air conditioner works to reduce the humidity inside your home at the same time as it cools the air.
  8. When the air in your home is dry and cool you enjoy less mold susceptibility.
  9. The truth is, it is actually cheaper to have a fully functioning air conditioner because it reduces energy consumption, which means lower utility bills.

Your Air Conditioning Unit: When Is It Time To Repair or Replace

When properly maintained, your air conditioner can last a good 12 to 15 years or even longer in some cases. But of course, nothing lasts forever. There are some clear cut signs that it is time for a new air conditioner installation.

  • The air conditioner uses R-22 (also known as HCFC-22): If you have an older unit, you may still be utilizing R-22, which is a refrigerant. This is no longer being manufactured and has been replaced by new technology and better products that are safer to use in your home. If you have a unit using R-22, it’s time for a new air conditioner installation.
  • Age of AC Unit: Sometimes the age of the unit will tell you when it’s time for a new air conditioner installation. If your unit is close to 10 years old or needs significant repairs, it’s likely more cost-effective to pay for a new air conditioner installation than pay for additional repairs.
  • There is a whining, banging, or clanking sound: This is never a good sign and is something that should be remedied right away. Usually, if your air conditioner is making loud sounds, there’s a problem with the internal components and you’re likely looking at a new air conditioner installation.
  • You’ve called for a lot of repairs recently: No one wants to pay for repairs to the AC every month. If you’ve had more than two repairs in the last six months, you’re better off buying a new air conditioner installation.
  • High Energy Bills: Your utility bills are a strong indicator of how hard your appliances are working. When they work harder, the bills go up. If it hasn’t been particularly hot, and your AC is using more energy than normal, it’s working harder to do the same job. This usually means it is getting older, tired, and it’s time for a new air conditioner installation.

If you’re not sure whether you need an air conditioner repair or a new air conditioner installation, give us a call. We offer free quotes for the installation and offer residential and commercial size services.
