Our factory trained technicians troubleshoot, repair and install all
brands and makes of Air-conditioning (AC) systems ranging from the very
old to newer and higher efficiency systems. We offer 24/7 emergency
services in the increasingly hotter summer seasons in Northern Virginia
without any extra charges. While keeping our prices much lower than our
competitors, we don’t compromise on quality at all. In fact, we provide a
written guarantee on our services and stand behind it. Our
knowledgeable technicians explain everything to customers technically
and provide up-front estimates. Our Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) certified technicians know how to properly handle the Freon gas
which is a key component of refrigeration and AC systems and is
regulated by EPA because it can disrupt the Ozone layer. Some of the key
components of an AC system are described belowAir Filter
Air filter insures circulation of clean air in the house by
collecting dust from it. If the air filter is dirty or clogged, it will
result in circulation of polluted air in the house which most of the
times can go unnoticeable. Furthermore, air blockage due to dirty air
filter can cause the evaporation coil to ice up which could result in
the failure of the AC system. Thus, it is highly recommended to replace
the air filter regularly.Air Handler
Air handler is responsible for circulating the air in the house. It
collects the air from the house through the return duct and cool it to
the desired temperature and then distributes it throughout the house. If
there is any obstruction in the duct, or the evaporation coil is iced
up, the air will not pass through the duct resulting in increased
temperature in the house. There will be little to no cooling. Another
important component in the air handler is the fan which actually
circulates the air. If the fan motor stops, there will be no cooling or
heating in the house. If the fan is dirty or loose, the system will not
operate properly. It is recommended to check the system twice a year to
make certain that it operates properly in both harsh winter and summer
days.Compressor
The compressor is located in the condenser and basically is the heart
of the AC system. It pumps air to and from the system, cools the
evaporation coil and takes the heat out of the house. The compressor is
also the most expensive part of the AC system. There are many factors
which can contribute towards the failure of the compressor. If the
system is maintained properly, the chances of a failed compressor will
decrease. Electrical connection level of the Freon condition of the
condenser must be checked twice a year to avoid failure of the
compressor. If the compressor is operating properly, it gives you
maximum efficiency which means you get maximum output of your AC system
while keeping your energy bills low. However, if the compressor is not
functioning to its fullest, it will increase your energy bills.
Unfortunately, most of the households don’t even know whether the
compressor is in 100% perfect condition or not and end up paying higher
energy bills. Our HVAC technicians check and clean the compressors to
slash your energy bills and keep you cool in hot summers.Condenser
The condenser is mostly located outside of the house in the split AC-
Heat Pump system. Basic function of the condenser is to eject the heat
that builds up in the house. If the condenser is dirty or the condenser
motor fan is not operating properly then there will be little to no
cooling. It is important to keep the condenser clean by making sure that
debris, lint, leaves or plastic tags etc are not blocking the air
circulation. Failure to do so might result in a faulty AC system which
will be needed to repair or even replace sometimes.Evaporator Drain Line
Moisture is collected in the drain pan and runs through the drain
lines during the summer. If the drain lines are blocked then the water
may spill over and may cause property damage resulting in thousands of
dollars in repair cost. To check evaporator coil, drain pan, and drain
lines.Noisy A/C
Blower motor is mainly responsible for the high pitch noise. It could be an indication that the blower motor has failed.
Thermostat
Thermostat keeps the desired house temperature. Most people set it on 70oF.
If the thermostat is not functioning properly, the cooling or heating
in the house may not be maintained causing not only discomfort but also
higher energy bills. Our specialists make sure that all electric
components in a thermostat are working properly and electric connections
are secured according to the manufacturer’s specifications.If you have any questions about your AC systems, please call us at 703-580-8988 for a FREE consultation over the phone.
