Frequently Asked Questions
My AC isn’t cooling/heating properly. What could be wrong?
An HVAC system that isn’t cooling or heating may have issues with refrigerant levels, dirty filters, or faulty components. Schedule a professional inspection and service with Cozy Home Services to identify the exact cause and prevent further wear.
My system is making strange noises. Is that a problem?
Unusual sounds, such as banging, rattling, or squealing, indicate mechanical wear, loose parts, or airflow obstructions. While not all noises signal a major failure, prompt professional attention can help prevent underlying problems from escalating.
My energy bills have been high. Can you help me improve efficiency?
High utility bills signal underlying inefficiencies, such as dirty coils, clogged filters, outdated equipment, or duct leaks. Routine maintenance and system upgrades improve efficiency and lower energy costs.
Should I repair or replace my current HVAC system?
Deciding between repair and replacement depends on system age, repair frequency, and efficiency. Newer systems usually benefit from targeted repairs, while older units with steadily increasing costs may be ready for replacement.
What are my options for a more energy-efficient system?
Modern HVAC systems include features such as variable-speed motors, more eco-friendly refrigerants, and modulating burners. Many are also compatible with smart thermostats that automate temperature adjustments to conserve energy.
