Visible Dust

Did you ever have those moments when you were a kid when you would look into a stream of sunlight coming into your home and you saw all kinds of things floating around in your air? Unfortunately, if you ever experienced that, the dust in the stream of sunlight is not the only place that dust is swirling around.

You have filters in different areas of your HVAC system, and their purpose is to catch that dust. If your filter is not being replaced frequently enough, or something is wrong with your system by allowing large amounts of dust to flow through, you may need some professional help. If you’re noticing large amounts of visible dust in your home, especially around components of your AC system, give us a call!

Low Energy Efficiency

It’s common for energy bills to spike at certain times of the year, but sudden increases outside those times of the year are signs that something is wrong. Several things can contribute to the lack of energy efficiency when it comes to your system. Since it’s a complex system, you should get it checked out to figure out exactly where your problems are originating from. Your air ducts might be the hidden culprit!

Loss Of Air Temperature

If your air ducts are damaged with cracks and leaks, this could lead to losing valuable air temperature in your home. This means that the air that’s supposed to be cooling specific rooms in your home is being released before it gets there and cooling areas that you don’t use, like your attic. Prevent losing that valuable air temperature in your home by calling on the help of the professionals at Air Tech of Katy to help you!

Strange Sounds

Noises coming from your air ducts are completely normal. Most of the time, these noises come from the expansion of the ducts due to the air flowing through them. It’s when you start to hear strange sounds like rattling, clicking, squeaking or grinding that you should be concerned. There are also several reasons that your air ducts could be making these abnormal noises, so it’s important to get it checked out sooner rather than later to avoid larger problems.
