Arctic Air: Efficient Commercial AC Repairs in Charleston, SC
A malfunctioning blower motor can wreak havoc on a heating and cooling unit, leading to several performance and energy efficiency issues. One big problem is weak airflow, as a malfunctioning blower motor struggles to push enough air into the room. This reduces comfort and cooling efficiency. Overheating is another concern associated with a malfunctioning blower motor, which can start a chain of part failures. A dirty and aging motor strains the entire cooling system, resulting in higher energy bills. The motor has to work harder, contributing to increased electricity consumption and operational costs for the business. A faulty fan can also trip AC breakers, an expensive problem requiring a licensed commercial air conditioning repair technician.
Additional symptoms of a failing AC unit include a non-functional fan, clunking noises, and rattling, screeching, or squeaking sounds. Burning smells suggest motor or electrical problems requiring immediate action. Recognizing these signs early on allows for proactive measures. Timely commercial air conditioning repairs and maintenance can prevent all these problems and cost much less than a new unit!

Another Arctic Blast is heading for Charleston. The storm from a couple of weeks ago did slow things down here in the greater Charleston area, but everyone managed to get through it. Though there were some hiccups with the bridges and roadways, I believe that the South Carolina Department of Transportation did a great job of keeps the roads safe. I see what happened in Atlanta, GA, and I was very thankful that we didn’t have to go through that.
The weather guru’s are saying that an ice storm warning remains in effect from midnight tonight to 10am EST Thursday. It looks like the main problem that we are going to have, is the ice that is going to form because of all the rain. The forecasts that I have seen are saying the the ice could be between 1/4″ to 1/2″ thick. This is especially dangerous on the roads and bridges.
The first is your basic “Inexpensive” Filter. They usually are in a cardboard frame, blue or white in color. These filters are make of something that looks like a heavy concentration of spider webs… and, you can see through them. This is not one of my favorite filters because it let’s too many of the particles through… and hence, a very low MERV rating. Change these EVERY month without fail!
3M makes the Filtrete line of air filters. Basically, the higher the number the more allergens are trapped. The Filtrete 1900 is a 3 month filter. They also have two higher levels which are the Filtrete 2200 and 2400.
Purolator makes the Purofied line of air filters. The Purofied filter is a 6 month filter.
Well, here we are. We have a winter storm (supposedly) coming that is going to make the roadways icy. The report that we just got was that they may have between a quarter to a half an inch of ice. Tonight the low is going to be around 37°F tonight, and tomorrow the high is supposed to be 37°F. Tomorrow night there is a prediction of freezing weather (sleet and possibly snow).
Of course, I am saying to myself…”this is crazy… it is not going to be that bad”. What is all this “hoop-la” about. Well, look back to the first paragraph. I didn’t think Hugo was going to be a big deal either.
Please prepare for this cold weather. Insulate your pipes. Let water drip so that it doesn’t freeze. Here is a post that I did a few weeks ago. It is definitely worth reviewing.
