DIY Tips & Preventive HVAC Maintenance
-
If your HVAC system is acting up, first check simple things you can safely handle: replace or clean filters, ensure vents are open, and confirm power and thermostats are set correctly. If the issue persists—odd noises, uneven temperature, or reduced airflow—schedule a professional inspection from Aire Serv of Newark DE to avoid small issues turning into bigger, costlier problems.
-
Regular HVAC maintenance is key to a long-lasting and efficient HVAC system. The most important tip is to change your air filter every 1-3 months. You should also keep the outdoor unit clean and free of debris. Additionally, scheduling a professional tune-up twice a year—before the heating and cooling seasons—will help catch minor issues before they become major, costly repairs.
-

General HVAC
-
SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. It measures the cooling output of an air conditioner over a typical cooling season, divided by the total energy it consumes. A higher SEER rating indicates a more energy-efficient system. Choosing a higher SEER-rated unit can lead to significant savings on your utility bills and is a smart investment for your home's long-term energy efficiency.
-
Smart thermostats optimize heating and cooling by learning your habits and adjusting temperatures automatically. They help prevent wasted energy when you’re not home and provide usage insights. Aire Serv of Newark DE can install a smart thermostat that integrates seamlessly with your system, boosting both comfort and savings.
Air Conditioning
-
Check your thermostat settings, air filter, and breaker box. A clogged filter or tripped breaker is often the culprit. If the AC still doesn’t cool, call our AC repair experts in Newark for professional diagnostics and service.
-
An air conditioner typically freezes up due to a lack of proper airflow over the evaporator coil. This is most often caused by a dirty air filter, which restricts air movement. Other potential causes include a blocked return air duct or a problem with the fan. Low refrigerant levels can also cause the coil to freeze, which requires a professional to fix.
-
The right AC size depends on your home’s square footage, insulation, and cooling needs. An improperly sized unit leads to inefficiency and discomfort. Our AC installation team in Newark can perform a professional load calculation to ensure the perfect fit.
Furnaces & Heat Pumps
-
A furnace generates heat using gas or electricity, while a heat pump transfers heat from outside air. Heat pumps are more energy-efficient in moderate climates, while furnaces excel in extreme cold. Our team helps homeowners choose the right system for Newark’s seasonal needs.
-
Uneven heating can result from blocked vents, poor ductwork, or an improperly sized system. It may also indicate a failing furnace or heat pump. Our technicians can diagnose the issue and recommend solutions for consistent, whole-home comfort.
