Common HVAC Maintenance Problems & System Overview for Maumee Homes

Neglecting HVAC maintenance is one of the most common reasons systems break down or become inefficient. At AW Heating & Cooling, we’ve seen firsthand how skipping seasonal service can result in costly repairs, higher energy bills, and reduced comfort in Maumee homes. Below, we highlight common issues that can arise without a preventive maintenance plan, as well as an overview of major systems our plans cover.

Common Problems Caused by Lack of Maintenance

• Dirty Air Filters: Over time, filters become clogged with dust, pet hair, and other airborne debris. A dirty filter can reduce system airflow by up to 50%, forcing your HVAC system to work harder to maintain the set temperature. This not only drives up energy costs but can also lead to overheating or freezing, component strain, and poor indoor air quality that exacerbates allergies and respiratory issues.
• Refrigerant Leaks or Low Levels: Your AC system relies on the right refrigerant charge to absorb and expel heat. Small leaks, if left undetected, lower system performance, causing lukewarm air and longer run times. Low refrigerant levels eventually overwork the compressor, leading to a costly repair or full system failure.
• Worn or Cracked Belts: Belts drive the fans and blowers that circulate air throughout your home. A cracked or misaligned belt can result in noisy operation, reduced airflow, and in severe cases, complete system shutdown. Without regular checks, a failing belt could break suddenly and leave you without heating or cooling.
• Dust-Coated Coils: Your evaporator and condenser coils must stay clean to transfer heat efficiently. Dust and grime on coils insulate them, reducing cooling capacity, triggering system overwork, and contributing to short-cycling—when the system turns on and off too frequently.
• Clogged Condensate Drains: HVAC systems remove humidity from the air via condensate drainage. When this line gets blocked with algae or debris, it can overflow, causing water damage to ceilings, walls, or your furnace. Mold may also develop around the leak site.
• Inaccurate Thermostat Calibration: A thermostat that reads the wrong temperature can lead to erratic system behavior. Your system may run when it’s not needed, waste energy, or leave rooms uncomfortable. Incorrect calibration also increases wear on your unit from frequent cycling.
• Low Water Pressure or Rusting in Water Heaters: Sediment buildup in the tank creates a barrier between the burner and water, making it harder to heat. Over time, this leads to loud rumbling noises, discolored water, and eventually tank corrosion or leaks. Lack of maintenance can also reduce water pressure from clogged lines.
• Unnoticed Gas Leaks or Carbon Monoxide Risks: Older furnaces with cracked heat exchangers or loose gas valves may leak harmful gases. Without annual inspections, these problems can go unnoticed, putting your family at risk for serious health issues or carbon monoxide poisoning.

Don’t wait until your system breaks down—schedule your seasonal maintenance with AW Heating & Cooling today and stay ahead of costly problems.
