The greatest benefit of having a heat pump installation in Panama City, FL is that it can do two jobs—cooling and heating—and all it takes is an adjustment to the thermostat to change from one to the other. The convenient energy-saving heating mode is a great feature for our mostly warm climate.
But right now it’s a Florida summer, it’s very hot, and your heat pump is chugging away in cooling mode. Then, one day, it won’t turn to cooling mode. Maybe you’re only getting room-temperature air from the vents. Or worse, the heat pump is putting out warm air. That’s not what you want your summer to feel like! Let’s examine why this problem might occur and help you find the best solution.
The thermostat is how you control your HVAC system, so it’s key for ensuring you stay cool in summer. However, too many people take their thermostat for granted and use it in ways that end up wasting energy and harming comfort. We don’t want you to have your thermostat work against you this summer! We have some best practices for setting your thermostat that will help you find the perfect balance between saving energy and staying comfortable.
You might expect to see water leaking from your water heater at some point. It’s something you want to see, but you can easily understand why a malfunction with a water heater can lead to water leaks.
But what about water leaking from an AC? Air conditioners don’t use water to cool the air, so where is this water coming from? And is this a problem that will require you to call for AC repair in Panama City, FL?

While simple methods like adjusting your thermostat settings and regularly replacing the AC’s air filter can significantly reduce the strain on your system, these aren’t the only ways to prevent breakdowns and repair problems. There are more substantial steps that an HVAC professional can help with that can drastically cut down on repairs.
Although heat pumps have been around since 1945, they’ve recently become one of the most popular types of HVAC systems for new installations across the country. A heat pump is similar to a standard air conditioner, but where an air conditioner can only provide cooling to a home, a heat pump can operate in both heating and cooling modes.
Let’s look at the best five reasons to switch over to a heat pump when you upgrade your HVAC system this year.
Florida winters are not like most other winters. Yes, we experience some colder days, often accompanied by rain, but that’s much different from what people in, for example, Wisconsin experience. The urgency to schedule regular maintenance for our heating systems is just not as strong.
However, we want to urge you not to skip heating maintenance, even if you only use your heater for a short period. The good news is that heating maintenance doesn’t have an expiration date, so you don’t need to worry if you haven’t scheduled maintenance yet. It’s not too late!
You won’t need to run your furnace often to warm your house. Not with the weather we have here in Panama City. But you want it to work right when you do need it, so it’s a good idea to watch out for any warning signs the furnace is in trouble. That way, you can call for prompt furnace repair in Panama City, FL from our technicians and get ahead of a more serious problem later on. It’s also much safer to react quickly to furnace problems, especially if you have a gas furnace.
There are several specific warning signs to watch for that will tell you your furnace needs the attention of HVAC professionals. Here are five…
Getting a heating replacement in Panama City, FL probably isn’t something you often have on your mind. You live in a place with the type of winter weather that draws snowbirds from the far north. But it’s easy to get complacent and allow a failing heater to slowly fall apart while you’re not paying attention. Then suddenly, on one of those rainy storm days when you need your heater to run, it won’t—and the old system is simply too expensive to repair.
Rather than get trapped having to replace a heating system as an emergency measure, you can head off the problem with some diligence and a few facts about when a heater needs to be replaced. We’ll guide you through how you can best tell when you need to schedule a heating system replacement with our pros.
It may sound odd that we’re recommending you arrange to have HVAC maintenance in Panama City, FL right now. The weather is hovering around that ideal point where it’s not hot enough to need the AC to run frequently and it’s not even remotely cold enough to justify putting on long sleeves.
But the best time to have your HVAC system inspected and tuned-up for the season ahead is during a time when you don’t need it. You won’t have to worry about going without your AC or heater during maintenance because you wouldn’t have either of them running anyway.
HVAC maintenance is a biannual job, ideally done in spring to prepare for summer and then in fall to prepare for winter. We’re deep into fall right now, and even though we don’t experience extreme cold in Florida, it’s still important to make sure you’re prepared for the chillier days—especially since we live near the ocean. If you haven’t gotten your fall maintenance done yet, call us today to schedule it.
