Why is my AC blowing warm air?
Usually a clogged filter, low refrigerant, or a failing compressor. Start with the filter - it's the most common (and cheapest) fix.
How often should I change filters?
Every 60–90 days for most homes - more often with pets, allergies, or heavy system use.
What's the ideal thermostat setting?
Around 68°F in winter and 78°F in summer balances comfort and efficiency for most households.
Why is my furnace making noise?
Banging on startup often means delayed ignition; rattling can mean a loose panel. Worth a professional look before it gets worse.
