How to Tell Your Heating and Cooling Service Provider What Sound Your System is Making

May 04, 2017

Your system has a array of sounds that it normally makes. Most times, they should go unnoticed. If your system is making strange or disruptive sounds, you likely need to call in a professional for a service session.

Listen thoroughly to the things you’re hearing, shut off your system and call in professionals like Air Service Co.. Your system might simply have a loose piece. The noises could also be an indication that major repairs are required. If you know how to define the sounds your system is making, you can help your service specialist work out a solution.

Here are some familiar sounds that imply a need for heating and cooling service:

  • Repeated clicking—You can hear a clicking sound when your system turns on and off, if you listen hard. This is routine. However, if you hear this sound again and again, you definitely need a heating and cooling service appointment to determine if it’s a problem with the system’s relay or its electrical control.
  • Rattling, banging, clanking or thumping—Rattling usually means a loose part. Strong banging or thumping sounds could mean a part of your system is altogether broken or disconnected.

Regular maintenance can prevent some of these noises from ever beginning.
