Your home heating and cooling system isn’t really thought about until something goes wrong and you can’t warm up or cool down. There are common HVAC problems that should be aware of.


Your air conditioning won’t turn on. First of all, check your fuse box. Perhaps a fuse has blown and needs replacing. If not a fuse, call Adams Air Systems. They will diagnose the issue for you and repair it. If cold air isn’t blowing out of the vents; check your programmable thermostat. It could’ve accidentally been set to heat or auto. Make sure the thermostat is set to air conditioning and drop the temperature and to see of cool air starts to blow. This also the time to replace the filter to the unit. If the filter is dirty, dirt could be stopping the unit from working properly. The problem could because the refrigerant is low or leaking. Make the call to Adams Air Systems. Their pros will assess your unit and repair it for you.


Perhaps the air coming out of the vents feels weak. This could happen with furnaces and air conditioners. If you have replaced or cleaned the filter and it still happens, call Adams Air Systems. There could be an issue with the evaporator coils or the compressor. Let the trained technicians at Adams Air Systems take care of you and keep you comfortable.


If you’re noticing the temperature is different room-to-room in your house and you know the windows and doors are fine and have no gaps, this could be a sign that your unit is too small for your house. The unit could be running consistently and that’s not a good thing. That issue could also be because of duct leaks and/or poor insulation.

Furnace tune-ups are essential maintenance procedures designed to ensure that heating systems operate efficiently and safely. During a tune-up, a qualified technician typically performs a thorough inspection of the furnace, checking for any signs of wear or potential issues.

Program Your AC and Furnace Settings

By Adam's Air Systems • July 15, 2024
Properly programming your AC and furnace settings can drastically improve your home's energy efficiency and comfort levels. Start by setting a consistent schedule to match your daily routine. For instance, during the summer, set your AC to a higher temperature when you are away from home and lower it when you are typically there.  Conversely, in the winter, lower the furnace settings when the house is empty and raise them when you are back. Utilizing programmable thermostats or smart home devices can automate this process, making it more convenient and reducing the chance of human error. Additionally, it's essential to perform regular maintenance, such as changing filters and checking for leaks, to ensure your HVAC system operates at peak performance.
