ALASKAFY TO ELIMINATE SMELLS
Call Alaskan AC today for a duct cleaning and Alaskafication of your system to eliminate unpleasant smells in your heating and cooling system. Alaskafied systems are long lasting, efficient and clean systems! https://alaskanac.com/ac-maintenance/

Check. Check. 1-2-3…sound check. Hmmmm…that doesn’t sound right!

With our higher temperatures this week, we may be turning on the A/C for the first time this year. And, for some of us, things just don’t sound right. If your air conditioner is making weird noises, it usually indicates a problem with the system, such as loose parts, a failing fan motor, a refrigerant leak, clogged drain lines, or a worn-out compressor, depending on the specific sound you hear (like rattling, squealing, hissing, buzzing, or gurgling). Here’s what you may be hearing:

Common AC noises and what they might mean:
• Squealing or screeching: Worn out fan belt, bad motor bearings
• Rattling: Loose components like fan blades, cover plates, or screws
• Buzzing: Faulty condenser fan motor, loose parts, electrical issues
• Hissing: Refrigerant leak
• Gurgling or bubbling: Clogged drain line
• Banging: Potential compressor problem
• Whistling: Air leaks in ductwork

What should you do if your AC is making weird noises? Call Alaskan Air Conditioning & Heating! We can suggest what may be wrong with the system, but the best thing you can do is call the professionals to properly identify and and correct the problem.

Call us today for your Alaskafication of the air conditioning system so you can changeover on those upcoming warmer days of Spring.

Alaskafy! What is it? It’s our Preventive Maintenance Program that keeps your system operating at highest efficiency for a very long time. Our Alaskafication of your air conditioning system ensures that is always running at peak efficiency, saving you money on your power bills.

Your A/C isn’t ready until it’s ALASKAFIED!

• More than a flimsy tune-up
• Guaranteed NO breakdowns for A FULL YEAR
• Systems last substantially longer
• You will save as much as 25% on utilities
• 33 Crucial safety and performance points of love for your system
• Alaskafied Systems are safer systems

Lasts Longer
A little Alaskafication now means your system will last longer than a system that gets ignored. Just a little buildup of dust and grime is the main thing that wears out an AC over time. Keeping that gross stuff out of there means you’ll have many more years of a healthy AC than your next-door neighbor.

Save on Utility Bills
The harder your system works, the more it costs to keep you cool. When it’s running efficiently it does its job better, and you pay less when your utility bill comes. It’s not unusual for Alaskafied systems to cost as much as 25% less to run.

More Than 33 Crucial Points
We paw around places in your air conditioning system you probably didn’t know even existed. We look for things that rattle. Things that need lubrication. Things that need to be cleaned up. Things that need to be replaced. And things that need to be filled, measured, and calibrated. We don’t miss a thing.

Safety First. Safety Always.
We won’t leave until we know for sure your system is healthy and safe. We’re looking to make sure the wiring is secure, fuses are doing their jobs, drains and lines are functional, CO alarms are protecting your family, and your duct-work is moving the air properly. It’s hugely important to you and your family…and it’s a key part of our Alaskafications. Every…single…time.

HVAC Air Conditioning & Heating Services repairs and replacements serving Tempe, Mesa, Scottsdale and the entire Phoenix area and in Tucson.

A dirty air filter in a house can cause a number of problems, in fact, clogged air filters are the number one reason HVAC systems break down.

A dirty air filter not only affects the continued operation and efficiency of your heating and cooling system, it also creates poor air quality and increased utility bill.

Here are signs of a dirty air filter:
• Dust: Dust will start to accumulate around air vents
• Odors: A dirty filter can cause a strange and unsavory odors throughout the home
• High utility bills: A dirty filter can cause the HVAC system to work harder, which will increase energy costs
• Overheating: A dirty filter can cause the HVAC system to overheat and breakdown costing you hundreds of dollars in unnecessary repairs
• Allergies: A dirty filter can trap allergens and bacteria, which can trigger allergic reactions
• Malfunctioning AC: A dirty filter can cause the AC to malfunction and reduce the lifetime of your system

Effects of a dirty air filter:
• Poor air quality: A dirty filter allows pollutants to circulate through the home, which can degrade indoor air quality
• Respiratory issues: A dirty filter can aggravate allergies and respiratory conditions
• System damage: A dirty filter can cause premature component failure and wear and tear on the unit
• Uneven heating and cooling: A dirty filter can cause uneven heating and cooling meaning you have hot and cold spots in your home causing much discomfort
• Frozen evaporator coils: A dirty filter can cause frozen evaporator coils

To maintain clean indoor air, it’s recommended to replace air filters every one to three months. It is also recommended that Alaskafy your system twice a year: annual check ups to ensure the smooth and efficient operation of your HVAC system.

Heat pump popularity has risen over the past few years, especially in the Phoenix area, due to their high-energy efficiency ratings and other benefits, such as:

o utility savings,

o long lasting,

o affordability.

Heat pumps stand out as an energy-efficient solution for both heating and cooling, offering a greener and cost-effective alternative to conventional systems.

For more information, call us for a consulation on your HVAC replacement to a beneficial heat pump from Alaskan A/C.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set new regulations for HVAC refrigerants that will take effect on January 1, 2025…and Alaskan Air Conditioning and Heating has answered the call with new, safe and high efficiency equipment including heat pumps, ductless mini-splits and conventional A/Cs.

Here is what the EPA is requiring:

• Global Warming Potential (GWP). New air conditioners must use refrigerants with a GWP of 750 or less. This is a significant reduction from the current average of about 2,000 GWP. 
• Phasing out R-410A. Phasing in A2L Refrigerants. R-410A will be phased out in residential HVAC systems and replaced with R-454B or R-32, depending on the manufacturer. 

The goal of these regulations is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and ozone depletion by using more environmentally friendly refrigerants. The new regulations are expected to improve energy efficiency and they are proving to do so.

So, what does that mean for you? LOWER UTILITY bills for one! And, secondly, you can feel good about doing your part to protect the environment.

For more information on a replacement with HVAC equipment that meet new EPA guidelines, call Alaskan Air Conditioning and Heating for a free consultation.

Why Fall Maintenance is Essential Before Winter Hits in Arizona

It might feel strange thinking about your furnace while we’re still sweating through triple-digit temps here in Arizona, but trust us—it’s better to be ahead of the game. Arizona winters may be short, but they can be chilly, and your furnace has been sitting idle for months. With how busy things get at the end of October, not to mention the chaos of the holiday season, it’s easy to forget to check if your furnace is ready to take on the cold. While those cold nights slowly creep towards us, there’s one important question to ask yourself: Is your furnace safe to run?

Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late

When it comes to heating, safety is the top priority. Your furnace, especially if it’s gas-powered, poses certain risks if it hasn’t been maintained. Gas furnaces are often installed in attic spaces, which can be out of sight, out of mind. But that means it’s even more crucial to have a trained technician, like our Polar Bear Specialists, perform a full inspection. Here’s why:

• Wear and Tear: Over time, parts like burners, ignition systems, and safety switches can wear down or malfunction.
• Dust and Debris: Furnaces collect dust and dirt over months of inactivity, which can lead to inefficient combustion or even dangerous situations like overheating.
• Fire Hazards: Malfunctioning components or dirty furnace systems can become fire hazards, especially if they’ve been neglected.

Carbon Monoxide – The Silent Danger

One of the most serious risks of an unchecked furnace is a carbon monoxide (CO) leak. CO is an odorless, invisible gas that can be deadly. Furnaces that aren’t properly maintained are more prone to cracks in the heat exchanger or ventilation issues, which can lead to CO leaking into your home. Having a Polar Bear Specialist perform a fall maintenance check will ensure your furnace is operating safely, preventing the possibility of CO poisoning, and giving you peace of mind when you finally switch on the heat.

Protect Your Family and Home

Let’s face it, while we may not fire up the heater as often as folks in colder states, we do depend on our furnaces when temperatures dip. A maintenance check is the best way to protect your family and make sure your furnace is in top condition to handle the cold nights ahead. It’s not just about staying warm; it’s about ensuring your home’s safety. As Ben Franklin said, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”—and that couldn’t be more true when it comes to your furnace.

Scheduling a Fall Maintenance check now, while you’re still cranking the AC, means you’ll have one less thing to worry about when the holidays roll around. Like they say, “It’s better to be a week early than a minute late!” Plus, the only surprise you’ll get this winter should be from a gift under the tree—not from a furnace on the fritz.
