Our Red Cap Family will help you determine when it’s time for a system replacement. Keep reading to discover what signs to look out for!
Choosing the correct system for your home will depend on the square footage of your space. Whether you are replacing your existing system, adding on to your home, or finishing off an existing space, your unit may no longer be able to adequately cool your home. This is the perfect opportunity to speak to a professional regarding the size of your system and see if an upgrade is needed.
Air conditioning units are designed to not only cool down your space but remove excess humidity from indoor air. Humidity is a common issue in Florida and it should be left OUTSIDE! If your system begins to operate inefficiently, it may be unable to remove humidity from the air. Common signs that your air conditioning system is beginning to malfunction are new mold spores in your home, moisture around your windows, or an overall muggy feeling.
If you begin to notice your utility bills taking a steady increase, it is a clear sign that your AC system is no longer performing at peak efficiency. The best way to detect a rise in utility bills is to compare bills in the same months from prior years. There will always be factors such as utility providers raising prices and hotter-than-average summers. However, if you see an increase in your bills that aren’t attributed to either factor, then a faulty system is at play and it is most likely time to replace your system.
If you have experienced any of these changes, it may be time for a new air conditioning system. Our Red Cap Family is COMMITTED to keeping you and your family comfortable all year long to beat the Tampa heat. Give our team a call today to schedule an appointment.
