This is a great question! Short cycling is something we talk about often on this blog, and it’s also something that we constantly ward against. It’s a problem, but when pressed on why it’s a problem, many people don’t have the answer. That’s okay!
We’re not expecting anyone to be an HVAC expert, especially with how much training is required to actually get licensed and be a pro. If you’ve been told why short cycling is bad before but you just forgot, then this blog post is perfect for you. We’re going to talk about why short cycling is so bad for the efficiency and longevity of your air conditioner, and why it might end up requiring an early replacement if you’re not careful.

Air conditioners are put under a lot of stress during the summertime. Especially when we start seeing days with record highs and humidity levels that feel like we’re all breathing water, it’s common for an AC system to overheat. If your air conditioner is overheating or regularly running into problems that cause it to shut down, we urge you to call our team to have your 
Ah, efficiency. It’s one of the most important aspects of air conditioning, heating, and indoor air quality. Ever since energy prices started to rise and we’ve dealt with the effects of climate change, it became clear that energy is going to cost us. Every time you switch on a TV, and every time you turn on a light in your home, that consumes a certain amount of electricity that’s going to cost money paid to the utility company. The more energy you use, the more you pay for the electricity. And, as things are today, an air conditioner consumes the largest amount of electricity of any appliance in homes throughout Greenwich, Hainesport, and even Evesham.
Temperatures are hot, and you’ve probably heard us say numerous times on this blog that the heat can be especially dangerous and uncomfortable for seniors. If that thought has ever been confusing or strange to any readers out there, we hear you and we’ve decided to write a specific blog on this topic. Seniors aren’t the only ones who can lose valuable quality of life during a heatwave, but they’re usually the first to have trouble. With some of these tips, we’d like people to be aware of things they can do to stop the heat and enjoy a cooler, more comfortable summer.
We don’t want to be alarmist. For most homeowners, the signs are pretty obvious when something is wrong with an air conditioner, and getting them addressed by a professional is the first step toward successful temperature control. However, there are many people who don’t understand how their air conditioners work, and thus, how problems happen. This means that a grinding or hissing noise coming from an AC unit is more likely to be ignored because a homeowner just doesn’t know what that is!
Look, we know that hearing the word “might” is not the best thing for a homeowner. Wouldn’t it be easier to hear that your AC absolutely needs a tune-up? The problem with that is that every AC is different and you might have already gotten AC maintenance in the past few months, which means you don’t need one again. Or, you might have a heat pump, in which case you need maintenance twice a year instead of just once!
Have you recently invested in new technology that’s completely changed your perspective on things? Many of our customers tell us about their smart technology, like responsive Bluetooth speakers that can play any of their music by listening to their request, and they wish there were something like that for their HVAC system. Well, there is something like that for your HVAC system, and we’d like to talk about it today.
Things aren’t as cut and dry as they might seem when it comes to air conditioning. Some air conditioners are completely broken down and require repair, others are working but not to the best of their ability, and some are in amazing shape. The lifespan and condition of an air conditioning system, just like your car or your home, is a spectrum that requires yearly attention and best practices to make the most of.
Springtime is officially here! Before we get into talking about air conditioners, it would be a good idea to enjoy the season for what it is! Temperatures are going to be milder, which means you can spend more time doing fun things outdoors. We don’t really have to worry about heat for another couple of months at least, so why not start planning out the garden and start doing some hikes?
If you’re the owner of an establishment like a restaurant or office building, then investing in professional HVAC is a must. Commercial heating and cooling systems are expensive, extremely intricate, and are massive in size and scale, so they require a team with proper certification to have them installed, maintained, and replaced when the time comes. This is a no-brainer.
