Common HVAC Questions, Answered

Whether you're wondering how often to service your system, what's going on with your ducts, or how to keep your energy bills in check, you'll find the answers below. These are the questions we hear most often from Santa Clarita homeowners, and we've kept the answers short and practical. If something isn't covered here, call David directly at (888) 960-6003.

How often should I have my equipment serviced?

Both heating and cooling equipment should be inspected, serviced, and cleaned at least once a year. We recommend at the beginning of a new season to ensure that you don't have more problems down the road. At Stay Cool Air Conditioning & Heating, we can inspect filters, clean components, tighten electrical connections and adjust blower components. Having your air ducts cleaned by a professional ensures that the job is done right. The better your air duct is cleaned, the more efficiently your HVAC system will run. Not only does it help your system run properly, it makes the air safer for your family to breathe. The process can help get rid of hiding bacteria and fungus, drywall dust, carpet fibers, and even rodents or insects.

What types of problems can I have with my ducts?

Ducts Too Large

Oversized ductwork reduces air velocity and leads to uneven cooling or heating throughout the home.

Misplaced Vents

Vents in the wrong location push conditioned air where it isn't needed and leave other rooms uncomfortable.

Leaks in the Duct System

The most common duct problem. Leaks let conditioned air escape before it reaches the living space, driving up energy costs. See our duct replacement service for more.

Why do I need my air ducts cleaned by a professional?

Any issue with your air ducts can lead to your HVAC system running less efficiently. Call Stay Cool Air Conditioning & Heating if you think you are having issues so that we can correctly diagnose the problem.

How can I help control my heating and cooling costs?

Change Filters Monthly

A clogged filter forces your system to work harder. Swap it out every month and choose a filter rated for your system.

Keep the Thermostat Steady

Frequent temperature swings make the system cycle more. Set a comfortable temperature and leave it, your system runs more efficiently that way.

Schedule Annual Maintenance

A well-maintained system runs more efficiently all season. See key benefits of HVAC maintenance for a full breakdown.

The owner David came over and installed the air conditioning and furnace in record time, 4 hours. This was during a heat wave. He and his crew were professional and courteous. They are a great family run business 😊.
