Adequate, even airflow in your Florence, KY home is important for keeping you and your family comfortable and reducing the strain you place on your HVAC system. If you notice that certain parts of your home are hotter or colder than others or that your system runs continuously without making your home more comfortable, you may have an airflow problem. Fortunately, there are a few steps you can take to boost airflow in your home.
1. Moving Obstructions
It’s common for homeowners to block their vents without even realizing it. If you have rooms in your home that aren’t getting enough airflow, locate the vents and make sure you don’t have any objects in front of or on top of them. Place furniture at least 6 inches away from your vents.
2. Scheduling Maintenance
For your HVAC system to adequately heat or cool your home, every part must work as designed. One of the best ways to keep your system in working order is to schedule regular maintenance. During a maintenance visit, our service technician will inspect your system, lubricate moving parts and add refrigerant as needed, ensuring that your system is ready to push air into every part of your home.
3. Being Prompt With Repairs
If your system isn’t evenly cooling your home, schedule professional repair as soon as possible. When your HVAC system needs repair, you may also notice strange sounds or odors coming from the system. Instead of waiting for these problems to get worse, promptly schedule repairs and get your system back to full working order.
Your Florence, KY HVAC system should be able to evenly heat or cool every room in your home. If you’re dealing with uneven or inadequate airflow, it’s time to let the professionals get things back to normal.
