The AC air filter ensures clean air circulation in your home by collecting dust and other contaminants. It must be replaced regularly to prevent the circulation of polluted air, which can be harmful to your health, and to avoid blockages of air that can cause your AC system to fail. The air handler circulates the air indoors by collecting the air from your home through the return duct, cooling or heating it, and distributing it throughout your home. It contains a blower motor and a filter that helps to remove contaminants from the air and improve indoor air quality. Heating systems in houses are typically either gas or electric furnaces. Gas furnaces are powered by natural gas or propane, while electric furnaces are less expensive to install but less efficient and more expensive to operate. Heat for your house comes from furnaces, which are the heart of your heating system. Heat pumps are a very effective means of both heating and cooling a building. The heat pump works to bring warm air from outside into your house during the colder months. In the summer, the heat pump works in reverse, drawing heat from within your house and dispersing it into the outside air. Heat pumps are an efficient heating and cooling system that moves heat from one area to another. During the winter, the heat pump extracts heat from the outdoor air and transfers it into your home. In the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump extracts heat from your home and moves it outside. Limit controls are safety devices that shut off the furnace if it exceeds a specific temperature limit. They are designed to prevent overheating and protect your home and family from dangerous conditions. Limit controls must be properly maintained to ensure efficient operation and avoid furnace malfunctions. Electrical heaters are heating components commonly used in electric furnaces. They work by converting electricity into heat and providing warmth to your home. Electrical heaters are typically less expensive to install than gas furnaces but are less energy-efficient and more costly. Your furnace’s gas has to be ignited, and that’s what the ignition system is for. A little flame called a pilot light is used to start the burner and generate heat. These components must be appropriately maintained to ensure efficient operation and prevent dangerous gas leaks. If your furnace’s pilot light ever goes out, the thermocouple will automatically cut off the gas supply. The gas valve remains open because the sensor picks up on the pilot light’s heat. The thermocouple detects the drop in temperature caused by the extinguishment of the pilot light and immediately cuts off the gas supply. The flame sensor is a safety device responsible for shutting off the gas supply to your furnace if it detects a lack of flame. When it senses smoke, a signal is sent to the gas valve, telling it to remain open. The gas supply is cut off if the flame detector does not detect fire. The pressure switch is a safety device responsible for shutting off the gas supply to your furnace if it detects a lack of air pressure. It monitors the pressure of the air inside the furnace and reports its findings to the central unit. If the pressure switch does not detect sufficient air pressure, it shuts off the gas supply to prevent dangerous conditions. The furnace limit switch is a safety device responsible for shutting off the gas supply to your furnace if it detects overheating. It detects the temperature inside the furnace and sends a signal to the control board. If the temperature exceeds a certain limit, the limit switch shuts off the gas supply to prevent damage to the furnace.

Called because outside unit was buzzing and not coming on- within 30 minutes someone was at my house, diagnosed the problem and fixed it! Sam was very knowledgeable and very quick with the fix! Would definitely recommend this company!

We had our air conditioner stop working in August and our house was miserably hot. We were assigned Universal Heat and Air through our home warranty company after the first provider assigned was unresponsive and unable to come for a week. Universal came out the same day! Sam showed up within his quoted window time, quickly diagnosed the problem and made the repairs. We were so grateful! We would definitely recommend!
