Monday, May 9th, 2022

When you notice your AC stops blowing cold air, it is never a good sign. There is more than one possible cause of course but today we want to focus on the possibility of a frozen evaporator coil.

When you’re thinking of upgrading your AC through an air conditioning service in Pace, FL, you may want to consider a ductless AC over a central model. Central AC units may be common, but they certainly aren’t your only choice when it comes to reliable air conditioning.

Ductless air conditioners are a great investment that delivers reliable, efficient cooling through the use of heat pump technology. With a mini split setup that combines an outdoor unit with a number of indoor air handlers, you can rely on a ductless system to deliver cool air effectively. This allows air to be sent directly into a room rather than moved through vents and ductwork.
