Air Conditioning Articles

Can you imagine a hot Nampa summer without air conditioning? Your air conditioning system can be your very best friend on the warmest days.

Your air conditioner (AC) can do several things––keep your Idaho home’s indoor air cooler than outdoor temperatures, help to keep indoor airborne allergens at bay, and help keep your home’s humidity low. But one thing it can’t do is kill mold. 

In the heat of the summer, it’s easy to assume that bigger is better when it comes to air conditioning (AC) systems. Obviously, if you have an air conditioner that’s too small in your Nampa home, you will not be able to keep your temperatures consistently low even if the unit is running constantly. 

The air conditioning system in your Nampa home is one of your biggest investments and home assets. In order to take care of it properly, as well as to communicate effectively with air conditioning (AC) professionals when needed, it’s good to understand some common air conditioning terminology. 

A freeze up is when a layer of ice forms on the outside of your air conditioning unit. It can look a bit disconcerting, but don’t panic. It’s fixable.

It’s the first really hot day of summer in Nampa when the floor fans and the open windows just don’t cut it anymore. You head over to your thermostat and select “air conditioner” and wait for that refreshing icy air to start blowing out of your vents. When you check a few minutes later, you feel only hot air. Why?

Our team at Legends Mechanical wants you to be aware, prepared, and ready to solve these air conditioning issues so you and your family can stay cool this summer.

Everyone loves to save money, and it’s a good idea to review different aspects of your budget now and again to see if there are more opportunities you have missed in the past. In the springtime, considering how you can reduce your energy bills is always a great idea.
