Air Conditioning FAQs
Answers to Common AC Questions from the Experts at Woelfel Heating & Air
How often should I have my air conditioner serviced?
We recommend once a year, typically in the spring before heavy usage. Regular maintenance keeps your system efficient, extends its lifespan, and helps catch problems early.
Why is my AC blowing warm air?
This could be due to low refrigerant, a dirty filter, thermostat issues, or a malfunctioning compressor. Our team can quickly diagnose and fix the problem to restore cool comfort.
How long should a central AC system last?
Most central AC units last 12–15 years with proper maintenance. If your system is nearing that age and struggling to cool your home, it might be time to consider a replacement.
How can I improve my air conditioner’s efficiency?
- Replace air filters regularly (every 1–3 months)
- Keep vents clear and clean
- Schedule annual tune-ups
- Consider installing a programmable thermostat
