Air Conditioning Services

A cooling system that is too small to work is impossible. Make sure you consider the space you have to work with and that the AC installation is not too big. Because they cycle on and off more frequently than smaller units, oversized air conditioners may actually have less energy efficiency. It could also make it harder to remove moisture from the air and humidify your home.

Other factors to consider:

• Energy consumption
• Price
• Quality
• Noise levels
• Efficient ductwork
• Durability
• Air quality
• Maintenance requirements
• Upgrades

Common signs you need AC repair:

• Low airflow
• Frequent cycling
• Higher energy bills
• Warm air
• Bad odors
• Water leaks
• Unusual noises
• Too noisy
• High humidity
• Uneven temperatures
• Thermostat stops working

Some of the most common issues our HVAC technicians handle include:

• Refrigerant leaks
• Dirty condenser coils
• Frozen evaporator coils
• Faulty motors
• Fan problems
• Clogged drain line

We recommend getting a replacement air conditioner only if it is more than 15 years old and requires more regular HVAC maintenance, which increases the overall cost of ownership.

We will leave you with an AC that:

• Performs more efficiently
• Lasts longer
• Costs less to maintain
• Operates safely

As a licensed HVAC company, John Owens Services also has a commitment to eco-friendly practices. HVAC professionals that handle refrigerant gases must be highly qualified and accredited since the Clean Air Act governs them. Establishing appropriate protocols for handling refrigerant gases is the primary objective of the Clean Air Act. The procedures impact the removal, recycling, storage, and transportation of gases that deplete the ozone layer.

John Owens has remained completely compliant with EPA regulations for nearly two decades. The use of refrigerant gas by the corporation was certified by the EPA in 1994. Maintaining appropriate refrigerant gas handling requires safety and training.

• Split systems with air handlers: An excellent choice for a home with AC on the second level and radiant floor heating throughout is a split system with an air handler. The air handler is an indoor unit that houses the air blower and evaporator coil; the condenser is situated in the external unit. These kinds of connections are made by a copper refrigerant pipe.
• Rooftop package units: The majority of these air conditioners are found on business rooftops. A factory-built kit that comes pre-assembled includes the gas furnace, evaporator coil, and condensing unit. They are found everywhere in between, whether it is on the ground next to houses or on their rooftops. In homes without an attic or crawlspace to store HVAC equipment, this kind of equipment could be helpful.
• Ductless mini-split systems, or ductless systems: A ductless mini-split air conditioning unit requires no existing ductwork. Zone heating and cooling for the entire house can be achieved by combining ductless mini-splits, or they can be used to spot heat or cool a particular room. Homes in an Eichler without an attic or crawl space are ideal for ductless mini-split systems. A ductless mini-split system is a great alternative to a window air conditioner that produces noise.

Air-to-air heat pumps: This kind of heat pump circulates heat both inside and outside of your house. When using an air conditioner, this is accomplished by transferring the heated air from within your house to the outside. The heat pump uses the opposite process for heating.
