Qualities of Ductless Split Air Conditioning
If you are adding air conditioning to your home, but you do not have any ductwork installed, you may think your options are limited. Window air conditioners lack the performance and efficiency of central air conditioners, but what choice do you have?
Common Tools Used in Duct Repair
To protect the integrity of the ductwork in your home, you will occasionally need to schedule repair work on the ventilation system. Leaking ducts will cause a drop in air pressure, leading to a loss of heating and cooling and a drain on power, and will also result in the infiltration of dust, dirt, and other contaminants into the ventilation system.
Possible Reasons Why Your AC Won’t Turn On
Here’s a scenario you don’t want to encounter on a hot summer day: an air conditioner that won’t switch into cooling mode (the compressor doesn’t come on) or won’t turn on at all (not even the fans turn on). However, you shouldn’t panic: with the assistance of professional Atlanta, GA air conditioning repair experts on the job, you should have your AC’s power restored in no time.
Causes of Low Air Flow
If you notice that your house is not getting as cool as it should when you have the air conditioner running, check on the vents and feel the air coming from them. If the flow feels lower than normal, you may have an air conditioning system malfunction or a problem with the ventilation system.

Are Zone Control Systems the Same as Ductless Mini Split Systems?
Zone control systems refer to a way to divide a home up into different “zones” (often individual rooms, but sometimes as large as the upstairs and downstairs) that can have their temperatures set independently. This distinguishes them from most central heating and cooling systems, which provide the same temperature to all rooms whenever they turn on.
