FAQ

  • Heating

    • What are the signs I need a heating repair?

      Uneven room temperatures, unusual noises, foul smells, and cold air are all signs your unit needs repair. If it’s completely stopped working, check the circuit breaker and batteries in your thermostat before calling Patriot Heating & AC professionals.

    • How can I save money every month?

      Regular maintenance, frequently changing filters, and better indoor air quality are all ways to save on your monthly bills. Annual tune-ups and other routine maintenance prevent important parts from clogging and damage that reduces the efficiency of your unit. Removing dirt and debris from your air with our indoor air quality services helps your unit run cleaner and air travel more consistently through your ductwork.

    • What maintenance can I do as the homeowner?

      Maintaining your heating unit goes beyond the annual tune-up. Every three to six months, you should change your filter. Consider replacing it earlier if you smoke or have pets, as pet dander and smoke can clog your filter faster. Keep a five-foot radius around the outside unit, so plant debris doesn’t limit airflow. Also, watch out for nesting inside the unit, especially during the winter, as small animals such as mice can chew and damage wiring.

  • AC

    • What should I try before calling the professionals?

      If this is the first time your AC has had problems, look for tripped breakers, a clogged filter, or dead batteries in the thermostat. If this troubleshooting doesn’t get your unit up and running again, don’t hesitate to call the masters at Patriot Heating & AC.

    • How can I increase my unit’s energy efficiency?

      Annual tune-ups keep your unit at 100% while keeping your system clean and replacing worn-out parts before they can cause damage. Remember to change your filter on time or early if you smoke or have pets. Adding a programmable thermostat can also help you monitor energy usage and reduce costs when you’re not at home.

    • Should I cover my outdoor unit in the winter?

      No! Your outdoor unit is built to withstand winter weather conditions. When spring does arrive, you may forget about the cover and overheat your system.

    • What maintenance can I do as the homeowner?

      Most AC filters last three to six months; make sure to replace this filter on time or early if you smoke or have pets to avoid reduced airflow and overheated components. Continually check on your outdoor unit for debris or signs of nesting from small animals. We recommend keeping a five-foot radius around the condenser so plant debris can’t clog your unit. Small animals such as rats or mice can nest in your outdoor unit during the winter and chew the necessary wiring.
