The Truth About Running Your AC All Day

A lot of people think turning the AC off while they are at work saves money, but that is not always the case. When your system has to cool a hot house from scratch, it actually works harder than if it had been maintained at a steady temperature.

Running your AC all day at a reasonable setting can keep humidity down and reduce that long, exhausting cycle when you get home. The key is not running it cold, it is running it smart.

If your AC seems to run constantly without cooling well, that usually points to a deeper issue like low refrigerant, a dirty coil, or a worn part that needs attention.

Call (801) 400-2422 to schedule AC service and keep your system running efficiently all summer.

How to Tell If Your AC Is the Right Size for Your Home

An AC that is too small runs nonstop and still cannot keep up. One that is too big cools fast but leaves the air feeling clammy and uncomfortable. Sizing matters a lot more than most people realize.

Here are some signs your AC might be the wrong size:

- Short cycling on and off every few minutes
- Rooms that never feel evenly cooled
- High humidity even when the AC is running
- Energy bills that keep climbing every summer
- System wearing out way sooner than it should

Getting the right size unit means better comfort, lower bills, and a longer system life. It is worth a proper load calculation before replacing anything.

Call (801) 400-2422 to get expert help sizing the right AC for your home.

How Dirty Coils Affect HVAC Performance

Dirty coils are one of the most overlooked reasons an HVAC system stops performing the way it used to. Over time, dust, pollen, and grime build up on the evaporator and condenser coils and mess with heat transfer.

When coils are coated in gunk, your system has to run longer to hit the same temperature. That means higher power bills, more wear on the compressor, and rooms that never quite feel comfortable no matter what the thermostat says.

A yearly cleaning keeps airflow strong and helps your equipment actually reach the efficiency rating it was built for. It is simple maintenance with a big payoff.

Call (801) 400-2422 to schedule a coil cleaning and get your HVAC running like new again.

What to Expect During an AC Installation

Getting a new AC installed does not have to be stressful. When you know what is coming, the whole process goes smoother, and you can plan your day around it without any surprises.

Here is the usual flow:

- A walkthrough to size the unit correctly for your home
- Removal and safe disposal of the old system
- Setting the new condenser and indoor coil
- Running refrigerant lines and electrical connections
- Testing airflow, pressure, and thermostat performance

Most residential installs wrap up in a single day. By evening you are back to cold, steady airflow and a system built to last for years.

What SEER Ratings Mean and Why They Matter

SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, and it is basically the miles per gallon rating for your air conditioner. The higher the number, the less energy your system uses to cool your home over a full season.

Older systems often sit around SEER 8 to 10, while newer units start at SEER 14 and can go well above 20. Upgrading even a few points can cut your cooling costs and take a real load off the system during those long Utah summers.

Picking the right SEER rating depends on your home size, how much you run your AC, and your long term plans. The right match saves money for years.

Call (801) 400-2422 to explore new AC installation and find the right SEER for your home.

How Often Should You Replace Your HVAC Filter

Your HVAC filter is one of those small things that has a huge impact on how well your system runs. A clogged filter makes everything work harder and can shorten the life of your equipment.

A good rule of thumb:

- Basic 1 inch filters every 1 to 3 months
- Thicker 4 to 5 inch filters every 6 to 12 months
- More often if you have pets or allergies
- More often during heavy cooling or heating seasons
- Check monthly if anyone in the home smokes

Staying on top of filter changes keeps your air cleaner, your bills lower, and your system running the way it should.

Call (801) 400-2422 to schedule furnace maintenance and keep your HVAC in top shape.

How to Improve Cooling in Multi Story Homes

If the upstairs in your home feels ten degrees warmer than the main floor, you are not alone. Hot air rises, and most single-zone HVAC systems struggle to cool two or three levels evenly no matter how long they run.

The fix is usually about airflow and zoning. Options like ductless mini splits, added return vents, or balanced duct systems can make a huge difference. Smart thermostats and better insulation in the attic also help keep upper floors from turning into saunas.

You should not have to pick which floor gets to be comfortable. A proper setup keeps every room in the house at the temperature you actually want.

Call (801) 400-2422 to explore mini split installation and finally cool your upstairs.

What Causes Water Leaks Around Your HVAC System

Seeing water pool around your HVAC unit is never a good sign. It usually means something inside the system is not draining or cooling the way it should, and small leaks can turn into real damage fast.

Here are the most common causes:

- Clogged condensate drain lines
- Frozen evaporator coils from low airflow
- A cracked or rusted drain pan
- Dirty air filters blocking proper circulation
- Low refrigerant causing ice buildup

The sooner these get addressed, the less chance you have of warped flooring, ceiling stains, or a system that shuts down in the middle of summer.

Call (801) 400-2422 to schedule HVAC maintenance and stop leaks before they spread.

Why Your AC Is Making Loud Noises

If your air conditioner has started making loud or unusual sounds, it is usually a sign that something is not working the way it should. Ignoring those noises can lead to bigger problems and more expensive repairs down the line.

Common sounds like rattling, buzzing, or grinding can point to loose parts, worn components, or debris inside the system. Even a small issue can put extra strain on your AC and affect how well it cools your home. Getting it checked early helps prevent further damage and keeps your system running efficiently.

Give us a call at (801) 400-2422 to have Vortex Air HVAC inspect your AC and fix the issue before it gets worse.

What Causes Ice Machines to Produce Bad Tasting Ice

If your ice machine is producing ice that tastes off, it is usually a sign something is not right inside the system. This can impact both quality and safety for businesses that rely on clean ice.

Common causes include:
- Dirty water lines or filters
- Mineral buildup inside the machine
- Lack of regular cleaning and maintenance
- Poor water quality

Routine maintenance keeps your ice machine running properly and ensures consistent results. If the taste has changed, it is time to have it checked. Call us at (801) 400-2422 to get professional ice machine service from Vortex Air HVAC.
