With warmer temperatures comes the need to cool off your home by turning on your air conditioner. We all forget about them over the winter months and by not using them for such a long period of time, your air conditioner may be showing problems if you have not had it checked for regular maintenance before firing it up again. JOB Heating & Air Conditioning discusses some common air conditioner problems you may be having with your AC unit.
Air Conditioner Problem: Water Leak
Refrigerant Leak
If the refrigerant is leaking, it reduces the efficiency of your air conditioner and can be harmful to the environment. In case of a minor leak, you can top up the refrigerant and apply a minor fix. If there is an issue with the pipes, the whole component may need to be changed. Call
JOB Heating & Air Conditioning when this happens.
Air Conditioner Problem: Dirty Air Filter
In order to keep the airflow in your air conditioner clean and free from dust and pollutants, a clean air filter is important. When an air filter is dirty, it decreases the efficiency of your AC unit as well as reducing the ability to cool the air of your home effectively. On average, an air filter should be cleaned or changed every 3 to 4 months.
Frozen Evaporator Coil
If your air conditioner stops working it may be due to a frozen evaporator coil due to the AC unit not receiving enough air needed to operate. This air conditioner problem disrupts smooth AC. In order to diagnose this problem, let the evaporator coil thaw by not using the unit for 24 hours. Make sure you disconnect the power first. Then
contact the Trusted Saskatoon AC team at JOB Heating & Air Conditioning to troubleshoot and ensure the AC evaporator coil does not freeze up again.
Air Conditioner Problems: Failure of Electric Control
By turning the AC unit on and off multiple times, you may wear out the compressor. If there is a disruption in the connection due to corrosion of wires, this can prevent the compressor and motor from starting. Check the electrical connection to the AC unit, and if you cannot determine the issue, contact JOB Heating & Air Conditioning. where one of their cooling professionals will be happy to assist.

What to Know Before You Call About Your HVAC in Saskatoon
Educating yourself on your HVAC equipment prior to placing a phone call will be very helpful to the technician that will visit your home. When you call for service on your HVAC in Saskatoon, the professional on the other end will ask you several questions. By being able to answer these questions, you can - in most cases - save yourself money by having fewer house calls with the technician having the tools to diagnose the problem sooner.
HVAC Information to Know: Brand, Age, Error Code
For example, your HVAC is not providing heat. You decide to call a service provider that you trust, such as
Gibbon Heating & Air Conditioning in Saskatoon. One of our professionals will answer and ask you what brand of HVAC equipment you have and how old it is. Depending on the age you provide, they may ask you what error codes are showing on the equipment.
By answering these few questions asked, you are providing the technician with important information to address the problem with your HVAC unit. When a customer cannot answer these issues while on the call, the service provider is essentially sending a technician to your house blind and unaware of where the issue is coming from.
Why Is This Important to Know About Your HVAC?
When the technician knows that the customer has, for example, a Bryant furnace that is 6 years old, providing an error code of 31, this tells them that there is an issue with the control board.
Once the technician is on-site, that is the first thing they will look at. If they did not know this information, they would have to perform a full system check on the HVAC unit to find out where the issues are. A technician’s time costs money. It is important to keep in mind that there is no way for ANY service provider to have all the necessary parts for every piece of HVAC equipment out there.

Here are TEN things you didn't know about air conditioning.
Nobody expects your ears to perk up when overhearing a conversation about air conditioning. As far as most homeowners are concerned, as long as they’re cool when they need to be and warm when they need to be, what else is there to care about? So, this goes out to everyone politely stifling a yawn when their HVAC technician starts explaining the ins and outs of their air conditioning unit. Air conditioning can be interesting!
To prove it, here are our Top 10 Fun Facts About Air Conditioning.
1. Forget comfort - the first air conditioner, designed by Willis Carrier in 1902, was designed to control the humidity in a New York publishing house. Its effects helped ink to dry faster and smudge free, as well as keeping the paper from expanding and contracting.
2. Do you love catching a summer blockbuster at the movie theatre? You can thank air conditioning. Moviemakers released their big pictures during the summer because people sought out the air-conditioned buildings to escape the heat.
3. Air conditioning makes springtime bearable. Allergy sufferers and asthmatics can thank air conditioning for providing them with clean, filtered air indoors.
4. All those “40 is the new 20” people can thank AC for prolonged life expectancy and the world changing advances in medicine. Without cool, controllable environments, certain medicines could never have been created and certain illnesses could never have been cured.
5. You wouldn’t be reading this article if it weren’t for air conditioning. That’s right, you can thank AC for the development of computer technology and manufacturing.
6. Vegas wouldn’t be VEGAS if it weren’t for AC. In fact, hotter states like Texas, Florida and Nevada can thank air conditioning for their population booms. Without AC, America’s economic power would rest squarely in the northern states.
