For seven months of the year, the average temperature in Jacksonville, Florida, climbs above eighty degrees.
Conditions frequently soar into the nineties or even the triple digits with brutal humidity.
The cooling system is essential, but because of the intensive workload, wear and tear is inevitable. I make sure to replace the air filter every six to eight weeks but sometimes forget to schedule seasonal maintenance. This past summer, when I lowered the thermostat and the cooling system kicked on, it made an unusual sound. The air flowing from the vents had a musty odor and there was a surge of dust. I hoped that the system would work out any difficulties and supply effective cooling. I should have called immediately for cooling system service. Instead, I procrastinated and my cooling system quit in the middle of the night during the Fourth of June holiday weekend. The outdoor temperature hit ninety degrees by eight o-clock in the morning. The home became horribly hot. I knew that if I busy an cooling system repair, I’d need to pay overtime fees. I decided to wait until Sunday morning. I tried running box fans but they didn’t help much. Opening the windows was pointless. It was impossible to sleep at night. My whole family was uncomfortable, tepid and unhappy. My pal and I took lots of cold showers. It was such a relief when I finally got a licensed Heating in addition to Air Conditioning professional to come to the house. She got the cooling system running within a couple of hours. From now on, I’ll make sure to schedule seasonal maintenance.
