Watch Out for These Late Summer AC Problems!

Monday, September 5th, 2022

If you remembered to have professional maintenance for your air conditioning system at the beginning of the year, you’ve likely had a trouble-free summer with your home cooling. However, the end of the summer is the most hazardous time of the year for an AC, even if it’s had a proper tune-up and inspection. With the heat still beating down, often hotter than ever, and an air conditioner having already gone through several months of hard work, the risk of a cooling system breaking down is higher. We recommend you pay close attention to how your AC is running and even consider a new ac installation. Either way, call us as soon as anything seems wrong.

Here are some common issues that can strike an AC during the dog days of summer.

Does a Dead Compressor Mean Your AC Must Be Replaced?

Monday, July 25th, 2022

The compressor is the literal heart of an air conditioning system. It’s responsible for the circulation of refrigerant that allows the AC to move heat from inside a house to outside. Without a working compressor, an AC is nothing more than a large fan moving around room-temperature air. The compressor is also a powerful and expensive component. When a compressor fails, the conventional wisdom is that it’s better to replace the entire AC rather than invest in replacing the compressor.

Why Your Heater Isn’t Evenly Warming Your House

Monday, December 13th, 2021

The invention of central heating systems was to ensure that living spaces throughout a house enjoyed an even level of warmth. Maybe a few temperature fluctuations here and there because of windows and insulation and room placement, but in general, central heating is designed to give all the spaces that need a proper level of warmth.

The solution may be a simple one, or you may need to call our team at Moon’s Air for heating repair in Shreveport, LA.

Why Having the Right Size AC Is So Important

Monday, July 12th, 2021

An air conditioning installation in Shreveport, LA should always be left to professionals. The work involved in putting a new central air conditioning system into a home is far too complex for an amateur, and it risks voiding the warranty. But one of the most important jobs that a professional does when installing an AC takes place before the actual installation: finding the right size of air conditioner.

When we refer to the “size” of an AC, we aren’t talking about how much physical space it takes up, but its cooling capacity. Professionals go through several steps to properly size a new air conditioner so that it matches the specific cooling requirements of a house. It’s important to have this job done correctly, since an AC that’s the wrong size means serious trouble.
