When you think of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, you probably think of the furnace and air conditioner (AC) equipment inside, an air conditioner component outside, and a network of ducts running throughout your Wesley Chapel home. 

Should you repair or replace? That’s always the big question when it comes to major home systems like air conditioning (AC). Repairs are easier on the pocketbook in the short run, but too many of them can add up. 

Can you imagine a hot Wesley Chapel summer without air conditioning? Your air conditioning system can be your very best friend on the warmest days. 

Here in Florida, we’ve reached the season that makes you say, “Gosh, it’s so dark out. Is it really only six in the evening?” Before the days get too short, remember to check off heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) maintenance from your autumn to-do list.

When it comes to your air conditioner (AC), a common term used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) business you are likely to see everywhere is your air conditioner’s SEER. But what exactly is SEER?

Many reasons can cause an air conditioner to malfunction, resulting in warm or hot air blowing through your vents. Our Lightning Mechanical professionals want to help you diagnose those problems quickly and then get them fixed, so you can cool down your family and your home.

When you are in the middle of summer, it can be difficult to keep heat out of your Wesley Chapel home even if you have your central air conditioning system going full blast. Our team at Lightning Mechanical wants to help you prevent heat from building up inside your home as much as possible so that your air conditioner can be more effective and efficient. Here are some tips to consider.

When an air conditioner (AC) turns on and off in rather quick successions, without running for longer periods, this is called short cycling. It’s fairly common, but when this happens it means there’s something wrong with your air conditioner. So what should you do?

An air conditioner (AC), just like a car, needs regular maintenance and service to run efficiently. At Lightning Mechanical, we recommend getting your air conditioning unit serviced and cleaned at least once a year. The optimum time is in the spring to ensure your system will run with the most efficiency during the hottest summer months.
