Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Hot to Fix It

Postponing air conditioner service might seem harmless—until it’s 90° outside and your system gives out. Small issues quickly turn into major breakdowns that cost more, take longer to fix, and leave your home uncomfortable when you need it most.

Here’s what can happen when you wait:

  • Total system failure during a heatwave
  • Emergency repair costs or full replacement
  • Long wait times during peak season
  • Sky-high energy bills from an inefficient AC
  • Poor air quality and mold from clogged filters or drainage issues

Frequently Asked Air Conditioner Questions

You’ve got questions? We’ve got answers!

To keep your air conditioner running efficiently, you should change your AC air filter every 1-3 months. Homes with pets or allergy sufferers may need more frequent changes to maintain optimal air quality.

The size of air conditioner you need for your home depends on the square footage, the insulation, and the climate. Our professional air conditioner technician can perform a load calculation to ensure you get the perfect fit AC for your home. Remember, a bigger AC isn’t always better! In fact, an oversized air conditioner can lead to inefficiency and frequent air conditioner repairs!

There are several reasons why your air conditioner might not be cooling effectively, including a dirty AC filter, low AC refrigerant levels, thermostat issues, or problems with the compressor. If your air conditioner can’t keep up, don’t stress—just call Five Star!

Here’s how to get the most out of your air conditioner while saving energy:

  • Regularly replace AC’s air filters.
  • Schedule routine air conditioner maintenance.
  • Seal air leaks around windows and doors.
  • Program your thermostat for AC efficiency.
  • Upgrade to an energy-efficient AC model when it’s time for an air conditioner replacement.

Look out for these red flags:

  • Warm air coming from vents
  • Weak or no airflow
  • Strange noises like banging or hissing
  • Higher-than-usual energy bills
  • Water pooling around the air conditioning unit

If you’re noticing any of these, don’t wait—Five Star service is just one call away! Give us a call today!

The cost to replace an air conditioner can vary significantly based on the AC unit’s size, brand, and SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating. The average range is typically $3,000 to $7,000 for a standard central air conditioning unit. For a free estimate tailored to your home, we’re here to help—just call Five Star!
