A. Dan and Irv are right. Your home A/C unit isn't likely yo explode on you. Your water heater however... that is a different story. The first thing you should do before you fire up your A/C is to make sure it warm enough outside. Operating the unit when it is below, say 55F (13C) is inviting liquid refrigerant to damage your compressor. Slugging is the term. Other things to check: - Clean filter - Clean condenser (outside) coil. Just hose it down. Be careful not to bend or damage the fins. If it looks really dirty, then call for a service tech to do it. They will come armed with a foaming coil cleaner that will fix it right up. - How's your evaporator (inside) coil? Be honest now. How many times has the furnace been run with a… [cont.]

Will we have to replace the air conditioning unit if we remove the heat pump?
Q. We currently have an air to air heat pump. We would like to replace it with a propane furnance. If we do so will we have to replace the air conditioning unit as well? From what I understand, the air to air heat pump utilizes the air conditioning unit to run. Will our current air conditioning unit still work independently from the heat pump? What changes to the unit will need to be made, if any?

A. The easiest way to use your heat pump with a new gas furnace would to use a honeywell t8000 stat with an outdoor sensor. This allows the stat to control the gas furnace for back-up heat and emergency heat and gives you the option of a lock out temp. You will have to remove the evap coil from the air handler a install it in the new ductwork. The other controls that do this type of system are called fossil fuel kits. They cost more money and are harder to install (more wiring).

Why do my heating and air conditioning units come on at the same time?
Q. I have central air. I turned my heater on for the first time yesterday and it seemed to work just fine. I felt the air coming from the vents and it is warm. The temperature reached the set temp on the thermostat. The problem is that my air conditioning unit also comes on. I don't think this is normal. Can someone please tell me why this is happening? Thanks.

How often do air conditioning units need to be charged with freon?
Q. We have been having terrible problems with our central air conditioning unit. Our house is about 8 years old and we have a zone system (separate heating and cooling thermostats for upstairs and downstairs). For the past 2 years the unit is not cooling the house properly (heating works fine). We had the dampers replaced 2 years ago and I know the dampers are fine. We have had several repair technicians look at the unit. They always recharge the unit with more Freon (3 times in 1 summer) after claiming to fix a leak. This past weekend again a repair person claimed that we had an internal leak in the unit. He said that he had plugged the leak and then he charged the unit with Freon.

A. A system only needs to be charged once, when it is installed. If it gets a leak, the leak must be repaired, and verified that it is repaired with a vacuum test. It is a laborious process, and some homeowners would rather just juice up the machine each year than spend the funds to get it repaired. Some units have leaks that can never be identified. There are lots of fittings, small bends in the coils, and hundreds of feet of tubing that need to be traced with an accurate tool. Many Tech's don't have access to this tool, and rely on soap bubbles to identify leaks. Contact the manufacturer of your unit, and have them recommend a competent company in your area.

What is the reason for a slow or stopped central air conditioning outside cooling fan with a loss of cold air?
Q. The recent problem seems to be related to the outdoor cooling fan. The air conditioning system seems to be working properly, but there is a loss of cooling of the air coming from the indoor air conditioning vents. I inspected the outside unit, and yesterday the cooling fan was stopped with a humming/grinding sound. The capacitor looked good (no bulging), but I'm not an electrician and I have no way (or the knowledge) to test voltages and amperages and such. Anyway, I blew on some dust/dirt/cobwebs around some of the wires, and started the system back on and the fan moved at normal speed and the system worked and cooler air came out.

A. You have to be licensed to handle the chemicals used in the system. They can be dangerous not nearly as dangerous as they were years ago. But Still you also have to have special equipment to recharge the system if you were to break the seal. So in short take it to someone who knows what their doing and is licensed to do so.

Is it dangerous to leave cars air conditioning on while car is off?
Q. My mom says if you leave your cars air conditioning on when you turn the car off, so it automatically is on when you turn your car on, that it hurts the engine. Is that true or is she full of BS? It sounds like complete BS to me.

A. No. It isn't dangerous. When you turn the key to "start" all electrical circuits which are wired through the ignition switch are disconnected, except those which are used for starting the car. When the engine starts and you release the key, from the start position, then all the circuits are again connected. I know a lot of people, most of who don't know the starter from the distributor, who insist that the AC needs to be switched off before starting the car. I don't switch it off and never have had a bit of trouble, with either the engine or the AC on any of my cars.

Q. Would like to know how to dismantle the dashboard in a 2000 GMC Safari van to get access to dislodge the stuck door in the air conditioning ducts. The air conditioning only blows through the defroster vent, and no other vents in the van.

What is the average temperature you set your air conditioning at?
Q. We live in central FL. My husband is from a tropical climate and does not want to use air conditioning at all. I would love the air to be set at about 75 but have compromised and am willing to have it set at 80 degrees. I think this is very reasonable, but he insists it is set at about 83 degrees if it is on at all. At this temperature I am very uncomfortable and have trouble sleeping. Am I being unreasonable here or is he?

A. 76 is average. Older folks like it a bit warmer. I think 83 is too high.

Does using the air conditioning in my car increase the amount of fuel used?
Q. Does using the air conditioning in my car increase the amount of fuel used? And also, by how much? for example, if it does increase the amount of fuel used, is it a negliable amount? or is it rather significant?
