How often should I service my system?

It is recommended to have your HVAC system checked at least twice a year for residential systems and four times for commercial.  Seasonal check-ups must include filter changes and our 17-point service to ensure optimal performance and energy efficiency.

We offer solutions such as air purification systems, humidifiers, and ventilation services to enhance indoor air quality and reduce allergens and pollutants. Call 310-909-4814 for your air quality concerns.

What if I hear unusual noises from my AC or furnace?

Book an appointment or call 310-909-4814 and our qualified technicians will diagnose the issue and provide the necessary repairs or recommendations to restore your system’s performance.

What is HVAC zoning?

Zoning an air conditioning or heating system is the addition of mechanical devices that separate your home or business in zones.  For example, you may wish to have the first floor as one zone and the second floor as another.  This allows for customized temperature control in different areas of the house or building. Our technicians can assess your property and recommend zoning solutions to enhance comfort and energy efficiency.

What if my furnace needs repair?

Easy, please call the office at 310-909-4814 to schedule an appointment.  You may also schedule an appointment online at ac-control.com and click book online.  One of our qualified technicians will arrive, troubleshoot your system and we will provide you a written invoice with the diagnostic, recommendations and a written quote.

What if my AC is blowing but the air is not cold?

There could be several reasons that an A/C blows, but not cold air.  For example, the compressor or its capacitor may be bad, the system may be low on refrigerant, the control boards may have failed or many other reasons.  Call 310-909-4814 or schedule an appointment for troubleshooting or repair.

My system is over 10-years old and still works. The system is over 25 years old in my mother’s house. They both still work. Why should I replace them?

There are several reasons why older systems need to be replaced.  Older systems, just like automobiles and other home appliances, are mechanical equipment that are prone to failure.  As systems age, the repair expenses just keep getting greater and greater.  Also, our older systems do not have the same technological capabilities for quiet operation and energy efficiency.  Save money on repairs, reduce the noise of your equipment and save money on electric bills.  Call A/C Control for a free and no-obligation in-home or at your business estimate.
