Understanding AC Inspections

Regular AC inspections are essential for maintaining the efficiency and longevity of your air conditioning system. Unlike routine AC maintenance, which involves cleaning and minor adjustments, inspections are more comprehensive and focus on identifying potential issues before they become major problems.

  • Thorough System Check: Inspections involve a detailed examination of all AC components, including the compressor, coils, and refrigerant levels, to ensure everything is functioning correctly.
  • Early Problem Detection: By identifying worn-out parts or potential leaks early, inspections can prevent unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs.
  • Efficiency Assessment: Inspectors evaluate the overall efficiency of your system, helping you understand if your AC is operating at optimal performance or if upgrades are needed.
  • Safety Checks: Inspections also include safety checks to ensure there are no electrical issues or other hazards that could pose a risk to your home.

At Farnen & Dermer, we leverage our extensive experience and commitment to quality to provide thorough AC inspections that keep your system running smoothly.

  • How often should I schedule maintenance for my new air conditioner?

    Regular maintenance is essential to keep your new air conditioner running efficiently and prolong its lifespan. It is recommended to schedule professional maintenance at least once a year, preferably before the start of the cooling season. This allows for any potential issues to be addressed and ensures optimal performance.

    More Information:

  • What are the benefits of upgrading to a more energy-efficient air conditioner?

    Upgrading to a more energy-efficient air conditioner can result in several benefits. These include lower energy bills, reduced environmental impact, improved indoor comfort, and potential eligibility for utility rebates or incentives. Additionally, newer models often come with advanced features and technology for enhanced performance.

  • Do I need to replace both the indoor and outdoor units during an AC installation?

    In most cases, it is recommended to replace both the indoor and outdoor units during an AC installation. This ensures compatibility and optimal performance. However, there may be situations where only one component needs to be replaced, depending on the condition of the existing system.

  • What factors should I consider when choosing a new air conditioner?

    When choosing a new air conditioner, it's important to consider factors such as the size of your home, energy efficiency ratings, noise levels, and your budget. Consulting with a professional HVAC technician can help you determine the best options for your specific needs.

  • When Should You Replace Your Air Conditioner?

    Although replacing your air conditioner costs more upfront than a repair, it sometimes is worth spending the extra few hundred dollars to opt for replacement of an older AC model. At Farnen & Dermer, our team will always attempt to repair rather than replace if it's possible, but you can count on our experts to guide you to make the decision that will make the most financial sense in the long run.

    Consider replacing your AC if:

    • The cost of repair is more than half the cost of replacement - if something large breaks on your air conditioner, such as the compressor, it will usually make more sense to opt for replacement.
    • You have already had it repaired in the past - rather than continue to pay for repairs on a faulty system, it might be worth your while to invest in a new model. This advice will vary depending on the extent of repair & the cost of the previous repairs.
    • Your air conditioner is more than a decade old - most air conditioners will last for around 15 years, so if your AC is approaching that decade mark it usually makes more sense to replace it rather than repair it.
    • Your air conditioner uses R22 Freon - The production and import of R22 Freon was banned in the United States starting on January 1, 2020. Because of this, the Freon that remains in existence will get progressively more expensive over time. It also poses an environmental hazard and is a key contributor to the depletion of the ozone layer.
  • What are the benefits of replacing my AC unit?

    Replacing your AC unit can offer several benefits, including improved energy efficiency, lower utility bills, enhanced indoor comfort, and reduced frequency of repairs. New air conditioning systems are designed to be more energy-efficient, which can significantly cut down on energy consumption. Additionally, a new AC installation can ensure consistent cooling throughout your home, providing a comfortable environment during the hot Maryland summers.

  • How do I know when it's time for an AC replacement?

    It might be time for an AC replacement if your current system is over 10 years old, requires frequent repairs, makes unusual noises, delivers inconsistent temperatures, or causes your energy bills to spike. If you're experiencing any of these issues, it's advisable to consider a new air conditioning installation to ensure reliable and efficient cooling.

Benefits of Expert AC Inspections

Regular AC inspections by experienced professionals offer numerous advantages that go beyond basic maintenance. These inspections ensure your system operates at peak efficiency, providing you with reliable cooling and peace of mind.

  • Enhanced Efficiency: Expert inspections help identify and resolve issues that can reduce your AC’s efficiency, leading to lower energy bills and a more environmentally friendly home.
