capacitor complications and air conditioners| buffalo grove, worth

Thursday, May 26th, 2011

dimmed lights create a sense of comfort and are often what help set the mood for cozy nights indoors with a blanket and a hot cup of tea. but, when the lights dim every time the cooling system turns on, the mood is anything but pleasant. many property owners would resort to panic wondering just how big of a problem this is going to be, but there is no need for panic when you have four seasons heating and air conditioning waiting on your call 24 hours a day and 7 days a week! if you have noticed this issue in your house, have four seasons take a look as soon as possible this spring and warm seasons season.

your cooling system and your electricity

the cooling system consumes the majority of the home’s power during the warm seasons months. every time the system kicks on, it requires an extra strong burst of electricity to get the motor going before leveling out the electricity draw. this formidable demand on your home’s electricity supply is often what causes the lights to dim in your house. normally, this should not happen.

capacitor problems

air conditioners have a capacitor that helps the motor start up without causing the lights in the house to dim. with time, these capacitors tend to loose some of their ability to help the cooling system start up, and one of the most standard symptoms of this problem is dimming lights within the house. this could be a understood sign that the capacitor is going bad, but the only way to know for sure what is causing this symptom is to call your local four seasons serviceman.

Government Takes New Steps Towards Energy Savings

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

In an effort to take advantage of popular programs and consumer support for energy savings the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate recently moved forward on proposed legislation to improve energy efficiency in the United States. The House version of a measure titled  “Home Star” will help homeowners reduce their energy bills through investments in energy efficient products. In the Senate, the Energy and Natural Resources Committee plan to adopt new consensus minimum efficiency standards on a variety of products.

The House bill establishes a new program that provides grants to homeowners for weatherizing their homes. There are two options for homeowners.

  • $250-$1,500 incentives for a variety of specific energy saving measures, up to a maximum of $3,000 per home
  • incentives of $3,000-$8,000 per home for comprehensive packages of energy-saving measures

The Senate bill adopts consensus minimum efficiency standards on residential air conditioners, furnaces and heat pumps, pole-mounted outdoor lights (e.g., street lights), drinking water dispensers, and more. It is clear that once the government backs incentives to homeowners for purchasing energy efficient products, homeowners will begin to see marked reductions in energy expenses for heating and cooling their homes.

Early Summer Still A Good Time to Get A/C Tune Up

Saturday, February 26th, 2011

When you take steps to make your central air conditioning effective and efficient, you can realize monthly savings on your energy bills. I would recommend you tune-up your system in the spring but even early summer is a good time to get your A/C Tune Up.

Keep your cooling system running at peak performance by having your contractor perform an annual tune-up on your central air conditioning unit. Think of an air conditioning tune up not only as maintenance but also insurance that your system will continue to run well down the line because the inspection will reveal any potential issues .

A/C Tune-ups can help you:

>Saving money on your monthly electricity bill

>Improving the efficiency of your air conditioner

>Achieving better humidity control

>Preventing costly repairs

>Keeping your home more comfortable by helping your system run at it’s optimum performance.

During the tune-up service, an HVAC contractor will use state-of-the-art equipment to accurately analyze your cooling system’s performance and adjust your air conditioner to optimize its energy efficiency—resulting in a cooler, more comfortable home.

Stay Cool,
