When a heat wave strikes in July, it is past time to get the cooling system inspected and serviced. When the hot weather comes, Cooling Services are overbooked and the wait will be longer. But, if a homeowner gets the maintenance done in the spring before the system is needed, there won’t be a wait.

Cooling Services offered by J&M Cooling and Heating are dependable and fairly priced. Spring is a great time to get the heating and cooling experts out to the home to perform maintenance on the heating and cooling equipment at the same time. This saves money and time. Getting yearly or more frequent maintenance done will help the equipment last longer and be more energy efficient.

Some of the maintenance duties performed can include:

• Checking odd sounds coming from the AC unit, such as grinding or squealing. Those sounds mean something needs to be tightened, cleaned, or replaced.
• When the AC unit is not cooling like it should, a repair expert can find problems such as a defective thermostat, low refrigerant, or a failing compressor.
• Moisture or leaks near the AC system can mean a broken or plugged drain tube or a refrigerant leak.
• Reduced airflow from the AC ducts might mean a problem with the compressor or a blocked duct.
• Bad smells in the ductwork should be addressed promptly as they can mean mold in the ductwork, dirty cooling coils, or a clogged drain.

When our experts inspect and repair the AC, it will work correctly again and keep the home cool. But, some AC systems are beyond their lifespan and need to be replaced.

Air Conditioner Replacement in Fairfield, NJ, is one of our services. Older air conditioning equipment can mean high energy bills and disappointing performance leading to high repair bills.

AC Replacement is needed under certain conditions including:

• The AC equipment is older than 10 years and has not been well maintained.
• The AC system no longer cools the home to the right temperature. Hot air comes out of the unit.
• The AC thermostat needs constant settings to keep the AC functioning. The unit won’t turn on or off as needed.
• The AC runs all the time without adequately cooling the home. There is poor airflow.
• The energy bills during the cooling season have gone up a lot.
• The AC needs repairs more often and they are more expensive than 1/2 the price to replace the equipment.

When it is time to replace the AC, it is good to have a reliable company like J&M Cooling and Heating to turn to. These dependable, well-trained experts can help homeowners choose the right model, brand, and size of AC system to best serve their home. They will guide the homeowner through considerations such as unit type, unit, size, installation cost, expected unit performance, future energy savings, and more.

When the AC system has been chosen, ordered, and received, the company will install it correctly and at a reasonable cost.
