My A/C Is Broken, And What Now?

Arizona A/C Service Company American Cooling And Heating Announces Availability Of “Round The Clock” Emergency A/C Service

“A/C Service In AZ”

Don’t panic, there’s hope!

When the temperatures rise into the 90’s or even 100’s, like it commonly does in areas like Phoenix AZand Mesa AZ, the first thing that pops into most people’s mind is getting that A/C on. and quickly! However, like all pieces of machinarly, the air conditioner is susceptible to breaking, especially when it has to work hard to keep a house cool in extreme temperatures. So when someone goes to turn on that air conditioning system and finds out it isn’t cooling the house like it should, what should they do?

Call a 24 hour emergency A/C service

For most people, fixing a complex piece of machinery like an air conditioner is not something they can tackle alone. Because of that, calling an expert is a must. There are plenty of companies out there, especially in a hot climate like the Phoenix AZ area. Every A/C service company is not the same. One thing that many people find, after they are faced with an outage that makes life miserable for the whole family, is that many A/C companies are unwilling to make emergency calls. This can be very stressful, because even at night or on the weekend, a broken air conditioner is often too much of a problem to simply wait for normal business hours. Those in the Mesa AZPhoenix AZ or other areas in Arizona will find that American Cooling And Heating is the perfect company to call when things get hot.

Stay Cool

The team at American Cooling And Heating respond quickly to emergency calls regarding broken A/C systems. However, in the meantime it is important that those in this situation find ways to keep the family cool. If possible, it may be best for families to visit friends, go on a day trip or do other activities to get out of the house. The distraction will be nice, and they can stay cool in the car or in other air conditioned areas. If a person finds they must stay at home while waiting for the air conditioning service, here are some simple ways to stay cool in a home with no air conditioning:

Take a Shower – getting wet will provide a temporary coolness, as the skin dries. 
Open Windows – Even if it is hot outside, sometime just getting the air circulating around the house makes a big difference. 
Enjoy Cool Treats – Ice cream, iced tea and frozen berries are all good choice that keep a person cool while they enjoy them. 
Spend Time Downstairs – Heat rises. The hottest part of the home will be the top floor, and the coolest will be the lower floor. Those with a basement will find that the basement is often several degrees cooler than upstairs. 
Turn off lights, ovens and electronics – While a household can’t shut down just because the air conditioner is broken, turning off unneeded electronics makes a difference to the overall temperature.

Most people dread the thought of a broken air condition in the heat of the summer. While it is certainly not a fun thing to experience, it does not have to be the major hassle that many people imagine. The most important thing is to get the system back up and running as soon as possible. Calling a 24 hour emergency AC service is the best way to rest assured that a home’s air conditioning sytem can be fixed quickly and easily. Those who have gone through the process know that all a person can do is relax, stay cool and wait for the system to once again become operational.

When Temperatures Become Critical, A Summer Survival Guide For Homeowners

HVAC Contractor American Cooling And Heating Provides Insight To Homeowners On The Ins And Outs Of Choosing New Air Conditioners And Heat Pumps

“We’ll Keep You In The Cool And Comfortable”

Summer comes to bring warmth into are lives….. a lot of warmth sometimes, and maybe too much for some people. Air conditioning was designed to bring comfort to people. Over time the process was refined and in 1902 Willis Carrier designed a refrigeration system that all modern air conditioning is modeled after. Technology has come a long way since then, so much so that the choice of brands, types, efficiencies, and even the company you chose to perform the installation is varied and difficult to navigate. The following are some useful tips and information that might make the process a little easier.

Air Conditioning Basics 101

Some of the major air conditioning and heat pump brands are Carrier, Goodman, Rheem, Trane, Lennox, Ruud, Amana, and York. Most mainstream brands of HVAC (Heating Ventilating & Air Conditioning) equipment are built with quality techniques to meet proper energy efficiency standards and to provide reliability. Efficiency of equipment is rated in SEER (Seasonal energy efficiency ratio) for modern equipment this rating starts at 13 SEER and for every unit higher it decreases the energy draw and increases the equipment’s energy efficiency.

When one thinks of cooling, they may not think of heat pumps. In fact, air conditioning is likely the first thought, a heat pump can both heat and cool, and in some applications, it’s the preferred choice of cooling system.

Oh By The Way What’s a Heat Pump?

A Heat Pump is a Refrigeration System that can be used for Cooling and Heating. Refrigeration systems work by transferring heat from one area to another. The Heat Pump is a refrigeration system that has been in use for many years. Refrigerators and Air Conditioners are both common examples of simple a Heat Pump used for Cooling.

Heat Pumps transfer Heat by pumping a medium used for heat transfer through a cycle of alternating evaporation and condensation. Two of the most commonly used mediums are Refrigerants R22, and R410A. A compressor pumps the Refrigerant between two Heat exchanger coils. In one coil, the Refrigerant is evaporated at low pressure and absorbs Heat from its surroundings. The Refrigerant is then compressed en route to the other coil, where it condenses at high pressure. At this point, it releases the Heat it absorbed earlier in the cycle.

An Air Conditioner is an example of a Heat Pump operating in the Cooling only or Straight Cool configuration. Heat is absorbed from inside the space to be Conditioned and transferred outside.

The Heat Pump cycle is reversible by implementation of a reversing valve in the Refrigeration circuit. A Heat Pump can provide year round conditioned air for your home, heating in winter and Cooling and Dehumidifying in summer.

The Air Source Heat Pump is the most popular type of Heat Pump; it absorbs and transfers Heat from the outdoor air in winter and it absorbs and transfers Heat from the indoor air during summer. Another type of Heat Pump is the Ground Source Heat Pump, also called a Geo Thermal Heat Pump System, it can absorb and transfer Heat to or from the ground or ground water, and is quite popular in certain geographic areas.

Some Key Points

Perform research on equipment brands and types to determine what fits your needs and budget. Choose your HVAC contractor wisely, be sure they have a valid contracting license with little or no complaints, look for a good rating with the better business bureau, and ask for references. Quality installation workmanship is key to the functionality and longevity of new HVAC equipment. Air conditioning and heat pumps must be installed by manufacturer’s specifications and to local and/or national codes.

Arizona Air Conditioning Service Shares Tips On How To Protect Your Air Conditioner Through The Summer Months.

Arizona Air-Conditioning service provider American Cooling and Heating provides these easy tips that could potentially save your A/C Unit during the Summer months.

When you come home after a long Arizona summer day, there is nothing better than walking into a cool, comfortable home to relax. Coming home to a broken air conditioner, on the other hand, can be quite upsetting. For this reason, it’s essential to make sure that your air conditioning unit is functioning properly during these hot summer months and why AC System maintenance is of utmost importance. Our air conditioning specialists offer these helpful tips about air conditioning options that can eliminate dust and dirt from your air conditioner, as well as offer the required maintenance on your AC to keep you in the cool and comfortable.

American Cooling and Heating’s AC Services Tips:

One of the easiest air conditioning options is to be sure that you use a high quality air filter. Air filter replacement is the most commonly needed air conditioning maintenance service. Replacing the air filter monthly protects the mechanical components of your air conditioning system from dirty buildup. A dirty air filter also can impede airflow and force your air conditioning system to work harder and less efficiently to cool your home. A poorly maintained AC System may fail due to abnormal wear and tear. Dirt and dust buildup may cause you to need an air conditioner repair visit or may lead to expensive parts failures or AC Unit replacement. Our air conditioning specialists determine the condition of your AC System and thoroughly maintain it to help preserve comfort to your Arizona home.

There are many important reasons for having Heating and Air Conditioning System Maintenance performed.

1. Abnormal Wear And Tear

Abnormal wear and tear can occur due to a lack of maintenance; this in turn can cause damage to important system components and cause premature failure of those components. Technicians performing routine maintenance can keep your unit running as it was designed to.

2. Equipment Efficiency

Cleaning and tune up can dramatically affect system performance. A properly maintained system will have more capacity to perform its work when needed and at a reduced operating cost. The savings you gain by having periodic maintenance performed can help make up for the cost of the maintenance itself.

3. Equipment longevity

Regular maintenance can also substantially extend the life of your home heating system. And this is true no matter what type of Heating and Air Conditioning System it may be, by keeping heat exchangers clean and free of debris and by changing defective parts promptly.

4. Inconvenience

Heating and Air Conditioning Systems can fail due to a lack of maintenance and this typically happens when you need to depend on the system working. This can cause something as minor as inconvenience or can put people with health related problems at great risk.

If your system is past its prime or even if it’s brand new take advantage of the energy efficiency gains made and avoid costs of premature failures by having maintenance performed annually. A licensed HVAC Contractor can visit your home and evaluate your Heating and Air Conditioning System and advise you of its condition. Here are some of the key items that should be checked annually:

  • Check overall condition and health of entire system
  • Check and clean condenser coil
  • Check and clean evaporator coil
  • Check condensate drain
  • Check drain pan
  • Check the air filter
  • Check all electrical components
  • Check refrigerant pressure for proper charge
  • Check voltage and amperage
  • Check temperature split on evaporator
  • Check temperature split on condenser
  • Check super heat and sub cooling

By following these best practices used in the HVAC industry you may lengthen the life of your existing Air Conditioning System as well as conserve energy and lower your utility bills.
