When your furnace or air conditioners starts acting up, it can be tough to know whether it’s something you can fix yourself or if you need to call in the professionals. Here are things to look out for if you’re experiencing issues or want to maintain your systems for peak performance.

Hot or Cold Areas

It’s common to find hot or cold areas in your house. While this could be the result of your HVAC system, it could also be due to drafts from leaky windows or doors. Light switch and receptacles are also common culprits. If you notice hot or cold areas due to drafts, here are some resources to explore:

Another common issue can be blocked floor vents. Check to make sure the vents are clear of furniture or other items that may have been inadvertently set over them.

If it doesn’t appear that hot or cold spots are the results of drafts or covered vents, it is time to call a professional.

Poor Air Quality

A major part of your heating system is its air filter. If that filter hasn’t been replaced in a while, it could be affecting your heating and cooling performance. How? A dirty air filter can block airflow, which means you’re paying for heat or AC but not getting much out of it. More importantly, a dirty air filter could also lead to poor indoor air quality by trapping allergens and contaminants inside your home—creating an unhealthy environment for you and your family. If you are regularly changing your air filter and still have concerns about your air quality, it is time to talk to a professional.

Pay Attention to Humming Sounds or Other Unusual Noises

Any kind of humming noise coming from your furnace means that something is wrong, but it’s hard to know what. In this case, it is best to immediately talk to a professional.

Consider Regular Maintenance

Many people don’t think about their HVAC systems until they stop working. Regular maintenance can help keep things running smoothly and reduce costs in the long run.
