Helpful Hints to Keep Your Heating and Cooling Systems Running Smoothly

AC Tips

  • Ensure the thermostat is in AC (or cool) mode and the batteries are working.
  • Is the power on to the AC unit outside? By the AC unit outside, there is usually a large breaker; make sure that it is set to the “on” position.
  • Are the breakers for the AC unit “on” position?
  • Is the furnace filter clean? If not, replace it, as air conditioners need adequate airflow to work. After changing the filter, allow 24 hours to see if the system begins to operate/cool.
  • Do you see frozen lines inside the furnace or water at the base of your furnace/air handler? Turn the AC unit off for 24 hours to let it thaw out. This may be caused by a dirty filter; remove and replace the filter. If the lines freeze again, turn the unit off and call for service.

Furnace Tips

  • Are the breakers for the furnace set to the “ON” position?
  • Is the furnace filter clean? A dirty filter will block airflow and can cause several problems that can turn into costly repairs. 
  • Is the vent outside covered by ice/snow and blocking airflow?
  • Is the thermostat in furnace (or heat) mode?

Mountain Air just completed a service on our furnace and humidifier. Matthew was extremely courteous and informative and did the most thorough job we have ever experienced. I would recommend Mountain Air to anyone looking for top notch care!

Mathew from Mountain Air came out for annual maintenance of my furnace. Reasonably priced, patiently answered my questions and clearly explained everything. It all checked out as only needing cleaning, so I feel they're very trustworthy. Will be using Mountain Air for A/C maintenance in the spring. Highly recommend!
