If you want more comfort, lower energy bills, and fewer surprises with your system, definitely. It’s an investment that pays off in convenience, savings, and smarter control.



5 Signs Your A/C Needs Professional Attention

Your A/C system is one of the hardest-working parts of your home, especially in Louisiana’s heat and humidity. But how do you know when something’s off before your system completely quits on you?


At Comfort Tech A/C & Heating, we believe in catching issues early, saving you time, stress, and money. Here are five warning signs your air conditioner might be calling for help:


1. Unusual Noises

If your A/C used to run quietly and now sounds like a percussion band, don’t ignore it.

What to listen for:

  • Banging or clanking (loose or broken parts)

  • Buzzing (electrical issues or debris)

  • Screeching (worn-out belts or bearings)

Strange noises often mean a component is wearing out or something is loose, and the longer it runs that way, the worse (and more expensive) the damage can become.


2. Weak or Inconsistent Airflow

Do some rooms feel like a sauna while others feel like a freezer? Or is the air barely coming out of the vents?

Weak airflow can point to:

  • Clogged filters

  • Blocked ductwork

  • Failing blower motors

  • Frozen coils

Ignoring it means your A/C will work harder for worse results, and your energy bill will reflect it.


3. Rising Energy Bills

If your energy bill suddenly spikes but your usage hasn’t changed, your A/C system could be the reason.

Common culprits include:

  • Dirty coils

  • Refrigerant leaks

  • Aging or overworked systems

  • Poor airflow

An inefficient system consumes more power to keep you cool, driving your monthly bills up. A tune-up could restore efficiency and lower costs.


4. Inconsistent Temperatures

If your thermostat says 72°F but it feels like 82°F, or rooms can’t seem to hold a steady temperature, it may be more than just the weather.

Possible causes:

  • Faulty thermostats

  • Dirty sensors

  • Airflow or refrigerant issues

  • Undersized or aging systems

Comfort Tech can run a diagnostic and recommend the right fix to restore balance to your home.


5. Strange Smells Coming From Vents

Unpleasant odors coming from your A/C should never be ignored.

You might notice:

  • Musty or mildew smells (mold or mildew in ducts or drain lines)

  • Burning smells (electrical or motor problems)

  • Rotten smells (possible pest issue)

These odors can indicate health hazards or mechanical issues that need immediate attention.


Bonus Tip: Trust Your Gut

If something just feels off about your system, you’re probably right. Even if it’s still cooling, strange behavior is often a warning of what’s to come. Calling in the pros early can prevent bigger problems later.


Comfort Tech Can Help

Whether it’s time for a seasonal tune-up or your system is showing signs of trouble, our expert technicians are ready to help.

May is Clean Air Month, a time to focus on the quality of the air we breathe both outdoors and inside our homes. Indoor air quality is just as important as the air outside.

May is Clean Air Month, a time to focus on the quality of the air we breathe both outdoors and inside our homes. Indoor air quality is just as important as the air outside, especially when you consider how much time we spend indoors. At Comfort Tech, we’re committed to helping you maintain cleaner, healthier air in your home all year long.


Why Indoor Air Quality Matters

Poor indoor air quality can lead to respiratory issues, allergies, and even worse conditions like asthma. Dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and other pollutants can accumulate in your home, affecting the air you and your family breathe every day.


How Comfort Tech Can Help

Our comprehensive HVAC services are designed to not only keep your home comfortable but also to improve indoor air quality. Here’s how:

  1. Air Filter Replacement: Regularly replacing your air filters is one of the simplest ways to reduce airborne pollutants. We recommend changing filters every 1-3 months, depending on your system and household needs.

  2. Dehumidifiers: Excess moisture can lead to mold and mildew growth, impacting indoor air quality. Installing a whole-home dehumidifier helps maintain balanced humidity levels, reducing the risk of mold and creating a more comfortable environment.

  3. Air Scrubber: For a more comprehensive approach, consider adding a whole-home air purifier to your HVAC system. These units capture microscopic pollutants that standard filters may miss.

  4. Routine Maintenance: Regular HVAC tune-ups not only keep your system running efficiently but also ensure that air filters and other components are in top condition to trap dust and allergens effectively.
