Proper HVAC Maintenance in Cincinnati Means Fewer Repairs

It’s simple. An ironclad rule of HVAC technology is that regular professional service means fewer repairs. Jansen offers a Maintenance Club membership for Cincinnati homeowners with maintenance procedures at the frequency recommended by the equipment’s manufacturer. This usually means maintenance visits twice a year — once before the cooling season and once before the heating season. This helps keep repairs small and few, by catching them before they have a chance to worsen.

Our techs receive ongoing training in addition to their numerous certifications and know exactly what to look for. During the visit, technicians will perform the following, and more:

• detailed inspection of your AC or heater
• thoroughly clean the unit and components
• flush the lines
• check for leaks or loose connections
• test and calibrate everything
• lubricate parts
• make sure airflow is good
• verify safety controls
• replace the air filter if needed
• ensure performance and proper cycling

Don’t Skip Professional HVAC Service

Maintenance saves money

Dirty components and worn-out parts mean your Cincinnati home’s HVAC system has to work harder to heat and cool. Proper maintenance keeps your AC and furnace running the way they were designed, with the most energy-efficient performance, keeping your utility bills lower.

Heating and cooling systems that aren’t maintained properly also tend to give up the ghost earlier in their service life than systems that are tended to by a professional. A new central air system is a bill few look forward to footing. Small repairs and regular service to your Cincinnati HVAC can go a long way to extending its life.

Regular Service Keeps You Healthy

A well-working HVAC system doesn’t just make you feel good, it helps keep you healthy, too. Regular cleaning of air filters, coils, ductwork, and other components reduce indoor air pollutants like dust, allergens, bacteria, and mold.

Safety first

Proper maintenance is also a safety issue. Twice-yearly preventative maintenance is especially important for combustion furnaces. Techs will always check for gas line issues, dust buildup, frayed or faulty wiring, carbon monoxide leaks, or malfunctioning components. Reducing the risk of electrical or combustion-related fires is a critical safety measure that is not to be overlooked.

It’s also important to make sure your air conditioning is regularly serviced to prevent problems. Since AC units remove humidity from the air, proper drainage is important to prevent leaks, mold growth, and electrical hazards. A professional knows exactly what to look for, so safety issues aren’t a concern, leaving you looking forward to fresh-smelling, healthy, cool air when you need it.

You have a part to play, too

Maintenance you can do yourself is also essential, like regularly inspecting and replacing air filters and keeping vents and registers clear of impediments such as furniture and rugs. Jansen is happy to discuss the best ways for you to do homeowner maintenance.

Common Issues Jansen Will Diagnose and Fix

System Blows Room Temperature Air. One issue homeowners often experience with their central air conditioner is air blowing at room temperature instead of a cooler temperature. This may result from a range of malfunctions in the system, including something as simple as the thermostat not being set to “cool.”

It could also result from:

1. • a clogged air filter
   • dirty coils
   • a problem with the compressor
   • a worn-out system ready for replacement

Overheated Compressor. In an AC or heat pump, an overheated compressor is a relatively common issue. Even if your compressor overheats, your equipment might still function to cool and heat the house — but a potentially expensive breakdown may be on the way.

Compressor replacements are often one of the most expensive HVAC repairs and often result in a Cincinnati homeowner being forced to replace the entire system. An overheating compressor may occur for any of several issues, including:

1. • high head pressure caused by dirty heat-exchange coils
   • an external electrical issue
   • “superheating” caused by insufficient refrigerant in the system
   • short cycling caused by a dirty air filter or a system with too much capacity for the size of your home

Furnace Won’t Turn On. This could be caused by several factors. Some of them require professional heater repair. Potential causes include:

• • a defective or interrupted power source
  • the furnace or thermostat being turned off
  • the thermostat set to “cool” rather than “heat”
  • an issue with the pilot light (older furnaces) or electronic ignition system
  • a safety sensor or blocked air intake pipe

Banging or Rattling. If this has ever happened to you, then you know how annoying HVAC sounds can be. Noises like this are usually a sign that something is loose, worn out, or off-balance. Don’t ignore it — while the problem could be a simple case of a loose blower fan blade, there may be something that needs to be addressed before it becomes a safety concern or results in a costly HVAC repair to your Cincinnati home.

Small Percussive Noises in the Furnace. These could be caused by partially blocked burners, with gas accumulating at the opening, then igniting all at once. While it’s normal to hear a soft pop or click when the furnace turns on or off, don’t ignore it if the sound grows over time, is loud, or involves repeated clicks on startup (this could be ignition failure: shut it off and call a tech right away).

Malfunctioning Blower Motor. A furnace that’s not working also might be the result of a malfunctioning blower motor or air handler (in a heat pump). If the blower isn’t working, your central heating or cooling system won’t circulate conditioned air.

Temperature Variances in Different Rooms. If you notice temperature differences in rooms in your home, whether it’s a long-standing problem or something new, it could be from poor airflow in the central heating and cooling system. Another sign of airflow issues is whether temperature variations occur on the same floor or wing of the home, where the temperature between rooms is usually pretty consistent.

This may be due to:

1. • a dirty air filter
   • a malfunctioning blower motor
   • blocked or closed registers
   • defective, deteriorating, or poorly designed ductwork

These are all examples of problems with your HVAC system that the trained and certified technicians of Jansen Heating & Cooling can quickly diagnose and propose a plan for addressing.

If repairing your Cincinnati home’s heating or cooling system is too extensive or costly, your technician will likely suggest a new HVAC installation. They’ll discuss your options, and if you decide to move forward with a system upgrade, we will work with you to install the best possible HVAC system for your home.
