Time to Call Fast Heating & Air
When that first heat wave of the summer strikes, you need your home's cooling system ready for the challenge. Here are just a few obvious signs your system is not up to the task:
Insufficient Cooling
The system may be running, air is coming from the vents - but the house just won't cool down. This is a telltale sign of low refrigent levels or clogged filters. This common problem is no problem for Fast Heating & Air. We'll correct the issue quickly with our same-day service.
The System Won't Start Up
Is your AC not working at all? It could be a tripped breaker, blown fuse, a simple thermostat malfunction, or a bigger electrical issue.
Either way, it’s time to get it checked and fixed ASAP.
Leaking Water or Refrigerant
An AC leaking water is often caused by a clogged drain or broken pump. Not only is it annoying, but it could also damage your home and belongings. If it is leaking refrigerant, the system will steadily lose it's ability to cool the home, causing it to work harder - and increase your energy consumption.
Frequent Cycling
If the furnace frequently starts and stops, this could be an indicator of overheating, which can be the result of dirty filters - or a potential electrical problem. Getting Fast Heating & Air to diagnose and correct the problem can save potential additional damage to system components.Â

Ductless AC Systems
Ductless air conditioning is the epitome of convenience and control. These systems offer significant advantages, like zone control and fewer breakdown risks due to the absence of ducts.
Heat Pump Systems
Opting for a heat pump installation means choosing energy efficiency for both cooling and heating your home. Heat pumps are renowned for their low energy consumption, which can significantly reduce your energy bills.
Steps in Purchasing a New Air conditions system
Investing in a new air conditoning system for your home is not a simple decision.

Assess Budget & Financing Options
We will compare upfront costs vs. long-term energy savings. Then, we will recommend financing options and explore rebates, or incentives for energy-efficient models.
Review Installation Requirements
We will inspect ductwork (if applicable) to ensure it’s in good condition. We check electrical capacity to handle the new system and identify the best location for the outdoor unit to ensure proper airflow.
