What’s That Smell?

Monday, May 17th, 2021

Homeowners get very concerned about smells when they’re using a gas furnace. This is for a very good reason, since gas furnaces can sometimes leak flammable gas that can be a health and safety concern for you and your family.

While we urge homeowners to keep that level of vigilance every winter, it shouldn’t start and stop with just gas furnaces. Other HVAC systems can produce odd odors that are not good news, and that includes an air conditioner or a heat pump.

Yes, if your AC system is causing a foul odor to waft through your vents, then you absolutely need to call us for air conditioning repair in Cocoa Beach, FL. This can be anything from an overheating system that’s causing electrical damage to your home, to mold spores entering into your ductwork and becoming a health issue for your family.

Keep reading as we identify these smells and inform you as to what they are.

AC or Heat Pump? Choosing the Solution for You

Monday, September 21st, 2020

Technically speaking, a heat pump is a type of air conditioner, but we’re going to drop that idea for this blog post. Conventional, central air conditioners are a different type of system than heat pumps. There are a variety of reasons to get either system, and we’re here to tell you that it all depends on your home situation.

Would you tell someone that a pool table is better than a ping pong table? There’s no right or wrong answer to that kind of conundrum. It depends on what sport you like to play the most! Air conditioners are similar in that they function differently and they cost different amounts depending on your cooling habits.
