Understanding the Anatomy of HVAC Failures


Have you ever found yourself shivering in a freezing office or sweating profusely in a sweltering room despite having your HVAC system running? If so, you're not alone. HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems are complex beasts, and when they fail, it can be frustrating and uncomfortable for everyone involved.


In our recent YouTube video, we delved into the reasons why HVAC systems fail and explored common issues that lead to service calls. One of the primary culprits behind chilly complaints could be a malfunctioning heat exchanger or a dirty evaporator coil. On the flip side, if your space feels like an oven, it might be due to a failed compressor or an economizer stuck open on a scorching day. And let's not forget those pesky water leaks, often stemming from something as seemingly innocuous as a dirty filter.


Understanding which component failed and triggered the service call is crucial because it helps determine if the issue was preventable. Could a more robust maintenance program have averted the problem? It's a question worth pondering, especially if you're tired of dealing with frequent HVAC woes.


To make life easier for you, we've compiled a handy list of common failures categorized under "too hot" or "too cold." Consider it your go-to reference for troubleshooting HVAC issues in the future.
