The sound of a well-maintained heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is like a lullaby for a good night’s sleep.
Spring is finally arriving in North Carolina! The days are getting longer, the flowers are blooming, and you’re probably already thinking about dusting off the patio furniture or tackling that messy garage.
We receive countless calls every time the temperatures drop below normal ranges, as homeowners here in North Carolina encounter problems with their home’s heating system.
Stand outdoors on one of those days when the weather feels perfect, take a few deep breaths, and enjoy the fresh air. Later, take another deep breath—only inside your North Carolina home. How does it compare?
It is an “Oh no!” moment when you approach your home’s thermostat and see its screen is blank. Is it serious? Does it mean your furnace, heat pump, or air conditioning is broken? Not necessarily. In fact, most of the time, it is something minor and can be easily fixed.
Is your furnace blowing air without pause? If so, you’re probably feeling a bit concerned—and your Matthews house most likely feels like an oven. On top of that, your utility bill will be considerably higher with your furnace constantly running.
Our team at Charlotte Heating & Air regularly gets calls about frozen heat pumps. Though common, a heat pump freeze-up usually means your system’s components are not working correctly. Sometimes you can fix it yourself. But oftentimes, you will need to call a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) professional, like us, as the problem may require a part replacement or complex repair.
You just discovered there is a puddle of water on the floor in front of your furnace. What does this mean?
This issue happens more often than not with older furnaces, and it could be a sign you are ready to upgrade your Charlotte home’s heating and cooling system with a new model. At the 10-year mark, furnaces start to lose efficiency and begin breaking down more frequently.
If your furnace is producing a strange smell, you should always treat it with caution. While the cause for the odor may be benign, it could just as easily be harmful to inhale. When in doubt, always open windows to ensure ventilation, and evacuate your Matthews home.
