It’s been said that when a frog is placed in boiling water, it will sense trouble and jump out of the pot. To prevent a frog’s escape, a cook must drop the animal into cool water, and then slowly bring the liquid to a boil. Known as “boiling frog syndrome,” this concept may be a metaphor for what is happening with your Tennessee HVAC maintenance.
Safeguarding Your Heating & Air in Nashville, TN
It’s easy to forget about your HVAC equipment until it breaks down on summer’s hottest day. Like frogs in peril, we are lulled into complacency as we take our AC for granted, day in and day out. When temperatures rise, our HVAC systems run the risk of needing repair or failing entirely—leaving us uncomfortable, unproductive, and frustrated. But, it doesn’t have to be this way.
With proper maintenance and routine service, you can escape the scorching heat, enjoy affordable cooling, and prolong the life of your air conditioning system or heat pump.
TLC for Your AC
Specializing in heating and cooling in Nashville, TN, Frog Heating & Air’s HVAC professionals recommend that residents inspect their comfort systems twice annually. A comprehensive AC check-up not only keeps your system from losing its cool; it allows technicians to pinpoint minor issues before they cause major headaches.
If it’s been awhile since you serviced your air conditioning system, your HVAC professional may recommend:
- Changing or upgrading your filter. Dirty filters limit airflow and reduce cooling efficiency. Frog Heating & Air recommends changing your filter once per month during high-use seasons. If your family suffers from respiratory allergies, consider a high-efficiency media filter that captures airborne allergens and improves air quality.
- Checking for refrigerant leaks & charging the system. If your central AC is losing refrigerant, a technician will (1) troubleshoot the system for leaks, and (2) add refrigerant as recommended by the manufacturer.
- Testing electrical connections. Long-term neglect may cause wiring and electrical contacts to corrode. During your tune-up, a Frog Heating & Air AC professional will inspect electrical connections to assure system safety and reliability.
- Installing a programmable thermostat. Tennessee residents can save up to 20% or more per year when they install a programmable thermostat. Frog Heating & Air recommends wireless and “smart” thermostats that allow you to tailor temperatures to your lifestyle. Some models also include features like remote access (via smartphone) and monthly energy reporting.
