By the time June rolls around in Shelton, CT, your air conditioner becomes your home’s MVP. But before you put it to work for the summer, make sure it’s ready to perform. The last thing you want is for your AC to quit during a heat wave—something Connecticut homeowners know all too well.
If you’ve noticed any of these five warning signs, it’s time to schedule a professional tune-up before things really heat up.
1. Your Energy Bills Keep Creeping Up
If your utility bill looks higher than usual—without any major lifestyle changes—your system could be running inefficiently. Dust buildup, clogged filters, or low refrigerant levels can all make your AC work harder (and cost more).
2. The Airflow Feels Weak
When air barely comes out of your vents, your system might be struggling with blocked ducts, a worn-out blower motor, or even a dirty evaporator coil. Weak airflow means uneven cooling and wasted energy.
3. Strange Noises or Smells
Grinding, rattling, or musty odors aren’t just annoying—they’re early warnings. These could signal loose parts, mold in the ducts, or motor trouble. Ignoring them now could mean an emergency repair later.
4. Your System Runs Constantly
If your AC seems to never turn off, it’s probably not cooling efficiently. It might be battling clogged filters, thermostat issues, or even poor insulation letting warm air in.
5. It’s Been a Year (or More) Since Your Last Tune-Up
Even if your system seems fine, annual maintenance is essential. A professional cleaning and inspection keeps your system efficient, extends its lifespan, and helps catch small issues before they become major ones.
