If you have a commercial space in Orlando, you know how important it is to keep it comfortable for your employees and customers. We are still in need of good air conditioning, so it is important to be aware of the signs that something may be amiss with your commercial AC. Not sure of what those signs are? Here are some of the common our commercial HVAC professionals tell customers to stay aware of:
Strange Sounds
You shouldn’t hear your commercial air conditioning at all, with the small exception of the air blowing through the vents at the beginning of a new cooling cycle. If you are hearing anything out of the ordinary, such as banging, buzzing or popping, it is time to call for an expert.
Odors
Unpleasant odors can mean a couple of things: you have faulty ductwork and odors from the outside are making their way into your commercial space, or there is a growth in your ductwork, such as mold or mildew. You need your business space to have fresh air, not odiferous air, so as soon as you smell something strange, it’s time to call for help.
Sudden Spike in Energy Bills
A sudden spike in your energy bills means something has happened in your HVAC system and whatever that is, it is drawing more energy than it should. Just because your commercial air conditioner is still running doesn’t mean it is ok, especially if your bills continue to spike. Call a trained expert to find the root cause of the problem.
Poor Performance
Is it a struggle for your air conditioning system to meet the temperature you have set on your thermostat? Is your cooling uneven? These are all issues that should be examined by a trained expert so they can be resolved.
