Frequently Asked Questions About Melbourne HVAC Services
Emergency Services FAQ
How quickly can you reach my Melbourne, FL home if my AC fails?
We offer guaranteed arrival times (or you don’t pay us a dime!) And during emergencies, you can contact us for service 24/7.
What qualifies as an HVAC emergency?
Extreme damage from a storm during hurricane season qualifies as an emergency, as does your AC failing during a Melbourne heat wave. If gas leaks or there is carbon monoxide in the air, it’s an emergency that requires an immediate response.
We also assist homeowners if their system has an electrical problem that could shock people or cause a fire. You can count on us to help during dangerous conditions like these.
System Maintenance FAQ
How often should I service my AC in Melbourne?
With so much heat and humidity, and debris blowing around during hurricane season, it makes sense to schedule maintenance at least once per year.
Our technicians will advise you if your system needs service twice a year, such as during the spring, to make sure it’s ready to keep you cool in the summer, and in the fall to maintain a warm and cozy abode during winter.
What maintenance do HVAC systems need in Florida’s climate?
One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning technicians will look at your ductwork and note whether it needs repairs or cleaning. We’ll replace your filters, which can become clogged with the salty air around homes on the coast.
Our technicians will examine all electrical components and moving parts. We always inspect and clean HVAC coils. If needed, we’ll top off the system’s refrigerant.
How can I prepare my AC for hurricane season?
Install a surge protector to safeguard the equipment from power surges and lightning strikes. Strap down or use brackets to help hold the external HVAC unit in place when hurricanes threaten Melbourne.
Installation & Replacement FAQ
What size AC unit does my Melbourne home need?
One of our NATE-certified technicians will need to evaluate your home and AC needs to correctly size the AC to your dwelling. If the AC is too big, it won’t deliver the cooling and humidity control you need to stay comfortable (because of rapid, on-off cycling). If it’s too small, you can expect hot spots from uneven cooling.
Efficiency & Savings FAQ
How can I reduce my Melbourne cooling costs?
Install ceiling fans to produce a nice, energy-saving breeze to supplement your AC’s cooling capacity. Use a smart thermostat to get better control over the temperature.
Check for any holes or cracks, such as near windows and at doorways, and seal them to keep cool air inside.
What SEER rating is best for Florida homes?
Our technicians will explain that you should buy HVAC equipment with a SEER rating of 17-21. SEER is short for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. The higher the rating, the more efficient your system will be, which saves money and reduces energy usage in Melbourne’s hot, subtropical climate.
Are there any Melbourne rebates for new AC systems?
Our HVAC technicians monitor announcements of the latest government and local utility rebates. This way, you can get the most cooling power for the money you spend. Contact One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning for the latest details.
