Nevertheless, our home cooling systems work endlessly — day and night, weekends and holidays — to cool our homes.

Lowers Energy Expenses
Dirt and dust begin to build up around a system and efficiency is compromised as they need more power than before to keep up with temperature preferences. A system that’s attended to is a system that’s given the love it needs which allows it to operate at its best. Your A/C shares that “love” right back in relief from energy costs.
Boost Energy Efficiency
A major part of A/C system maintenance includes the inspection and cleaning of the unit’s fan blades, cooling coils, and of other parts of the system that influence its efficiency. Having clean coils, your system is better able to provide cooler temperatures which reduces energy consumption.
Capitalize on Comfort
As part of a preventative maintenance appointment, our technicians closely scrutinize and test all the various parts of your AC system. As such, they are able to locate any abnormalities or things needing addressed. The subsequent enhancement of your system empowers it to perform at its best, providing you with continuous enhanced comfort from the heat.
Reduces the Need for Emergency Repairs
Some compare it to a checkup with a doctor or dentist or like having a vehicle’s oil changed, or getting a tune-up. Similarly, an AC maintenance visit allows our certified technicians to guarantee your system is in the best possible condition prior to going into the cooling season full swing. Faulty, old, defective components are replaced before they cause damage to other parts and inhibit the systems otherwise smooth and efficient operation.

Common AC Maintenance Questions & Answers
What is considered an HVAC emergency?
At Greater Columbus Furnace & Air Conditioning, we not only care about your comfort but we also care about your health and safety as well. While you can always count on us for fast HVAC repair services any time, emergency calls are always our highest priority.
Because of this, if there’s ever a sudden A/C breakdown during a heatwave, we consider it an emergency. The same is true if you’ve lost cool air (or heat for that matter) and there are elderly people or children in the home. Boiler leaks and pipe bursts are emergencies in addition to gas leaks. For gas leaks, you should leave the home and call 911 immediately outside the home.
Because our emergency HVAC technicians know that emergency situations are different for every customer, we always strive to listen closely when you call to understand your needs. We also provide helpful information on how to stay safe while waiting for our team to arrive.
What are the different types of air conditioners available?
Homeowners can choose from several different types of cooling systems when they choose Greater Columbus Furnace & Air Conditioning. Although the most common types are centralized air conditioners, we also offer ductless AC and zoned AC systems. Another great option would be a heat pump. The standard centralized air conditioning system usually includes of an outdoor unit and an indoor unit that works with the heating system’s equipment. Ductless air conditioners or mini-splits consist of an outdoor heat pump that connects to the air handler in the home Zoned air conditioners are ideal to cool specific rooms.
How does my AC system work?
When it’s functioning properly, air conditioners run in cycles. As soon as the system’s thermostat detects it’s warmer than your set temperature level, the cycle begins. As soon it detects the rise in temperature, the unit comes on and pulls warm air into the unit over the evaporator coils. Using refrigerants inside the A/C compressor, these coils absorb the heat in the air, cooling it and removing moisture. During the cooling cycle, the heat is released outdoors through the A/C’s fans and the cooled air goes into the resident. Eventually, the cooled refrigerant goes back to the indoor unit where the process is repeated until it achieves the desired temperature.
