Frequently Asked Questions
HVAC Questions Answered for Beggs & Tulsa Homeowners
How often should I service my HVAC system?
We recommend scheduling professional HVAC maintenance twice per year — once in the spring for your air conditioner and once in the fall for your heating system. Regular maintenance improves efficiency, extends system lifespan, and helps prevent costly breakdowns.
How long does an HVAC system typically last?
Most heating and cooling systems last between 10–15 years, depending on usage, maintenance, and system quality. Preventative maintenance and timely repairs can help maximize your system’s lifespan.
Do you offer emergency HVAC services?
Yes. We understand that heating and cooling issues don’t always happen during business hours. If your AC stops working during extreme heat or your furnace fails during winter, call us for prompt service.
Why is my air conditioner blowing warm air?
Common causes include:
- Low refrigerant levels
- Dirty air filters
- Thermostat issues
- Electrical or compressor problems
Our technicians can quickly diagnose and repair the issue to restore cool air to your home.
How do I know if I need AC repair or replacement?
If your unit is over 10–15 years old, requires frequent repairs, or your energy bills have increased significantly, it may be more cost-effective to replace it. We provide honest recommendations based on your system’s condition and budget.
How can I lower my cooling costs in the summer?
- Change air filters regularly
- Schedule seasonal maintenance
- Install a programmable or smart thermostat
- Upgrade to a high-efficiency AC system
Energy-efficient upgrades can significantly reduce monthly utility bills.
Why is my furnace making strange noises?
Unusual noises like banging, rattling, or squealing may indicate loose components, airflow restrictions, or motor issues. It’s best to schedule a professional inspection before the issue worsens.
What temperature should I set my thermostat in winter?
Most experts recommend setting your thermostat between 68–72°F for comfort and efficiency. Lowering the temperature slightly when you’re away can help reduce heating costs.
