Plenty of Palm Bay homeowners assume a new HVAC system is mostly about the boxes: pick a brand, pick a size, bolt it in. In practice, a full installation is three separate jobs. The equipment has to match the house, the ducts have to carry what the equipment produces, and the finished system has to be commissioned so it performs on the meter, not just on the spec sheet. That is why Palm Bay HVAC begins every job with a load calculation for your Palm Bay, FL home, working from square footage, insulation, window area, orientation, and air leakage. Guess at the size and you get either an oversized unit that short-cycles and leaves the air clammy or an undersized one that runs all afternoon and never catches up.
The repairs homeowners call us about most are AC Repair and Furnace Repair. That's the place to start if you need a fix today.
Warning Signs for HVAC Installation
The sooner you notice these red flags, the easier and cheaper the fix. Watch for these telltale signs:
- Rooms that stay uncomfortable however you set the registers
- Your heating and cooling equipment is past the twelve-to-fifteen-year mark
- A compressor failure one year and a heat exchanger problem the next
- You are renovating or adding space and the old system cannot carry it
- Your equipment depends on R-22, a refrigerant that has been phased out
- Paying more every month for a house that feels worse
- Short, frequent cooling cycles that leave the house clammy
- Equipment loud enough to hear over conversation
Don't Wait for a Total Failure
Most HVAC failures start small, a weak capacitor, a squealing blower, a system that runs a little longer each week. If you notice any of these signs, call (321) 538-7429 for a prompt inspection.
