Signs Your AC System Needs Service
Spotting early signs that your air conditioner needs service can help you avoid costly repairs and keep your home comfortable through Peabody’s seasonal swings. Watch for warning signs like your system blowing warm air, cycling on and off, or not reaching the set temperature. Many homeowners notice higher utility bills in peak cooling season, which often means the air conditioner is working harder due to a worn part or clogged filter.
Other signs include high indoor humidity, some rooms not cooling as well as others, or musty odors from vents. Noises like screeching, grinding, or rattling usually signal components that need inspection. If you notice these changes, our team at Townsend Energy can help restore reliable performance. Regular service helps keep your AC working when Peabody’s temperatures climb.

FAQs About Air Conditioning Services
What Are the Most Common AC Problems?
Several issues can reduce your system’s efficiency. Common problems include clogged drains, refrigerant leaks, or electrical faults that impact the compressor. Delaying service usually leads to bigger repairs, so prompt attention is smart. Thermostat malfunctions are also common—they often cause uneven cooling or unnecessary cycling, which raises energy use. A quick check can prevent these headaches.
How Often Should I Have My AC Serviced?
Schedule air conditioning service at least once a year to maintain performance and keep your warranty protected. Routine checks help catch small issues before they grow and ensure energy efficiency during hot weather. Schedule maintenance in the spring to make sure your system is ready for peak demand. These regular visits keep your investment safe and your rooms cool.
Why Is My AC Unit Making Unusual Noises?
Noises like squealing, banging, or grinding usually mean a loose part, a worn motor, or debris in the unit. Shut the system off and arrange a system check to prevent further wear. Noise from vents or ductwork can travel, but a targeted inspection identifies the issue quickly and gets you back to quiet comfort.
What Should I Do in Case of an AC Emergency?
If your air conditioner breaks down during a heatwave, turn it off to avoid damage. Call our 24-hour emergency line for a prompt response. Our technicians work quickly to restore your comfort. While waiting, use fans and close your blinds to help keep indoor temperatures down until your system is repaired.
How Can I Improve the Energy Efficiency of My AC?
Simple steps make a difference. Schedule routine maintenance, change filters regularly, and keep your house well-insulated to boost your system’s performance. At Townsend Energy, we offer energy audits and thermostat upgrades to help you use less energy while staying comfortable. A programmable thermostat makes customized cooling easier, maximizing energy savings for local homes.
