Anyone elses HVAC?

Upvotes

My HVAC runs about 19 hours on one side of the house and 13 hours on the other when its 100 degrees out. I leave the house at 76-78 depending on if anyone is home.

Anyone else’s HVAC runs this long?

I have 20 year old HVACS that use Freon from two generations ago

Replacing Your Central AC? Check the Refrigerant Line Size - Heads Up

0 Upvotes

Many older central air conditioners in Plano were installed with a 1 1/8-inch refrigerant line, while many newer systems are designed for a 7/8-inch refrigerant line.

Using the wrong refrigerant line size can affect refrigerant flow, compressor performance, system efficiency, and equipment life. Some manufacturers allow larger refrigerant lines under specific conditions, but others require the correct size to maintain performance and warranty coverage.

Before replacing your AC, have your HVAC contractor verify whether your existing refrigerant line meets the new system's specifications. Replacing the refrigerant line during installation may help prevent future performance and reliability issues.

Popcorn Ceiling Removal

3 Upvotes

Hi there! I’m purchasing a home in Plano and it has popcorn ceilings that I’d like removed, smoothed out, and painted. Anyone have any experience with this with local contractors? Any Plano companies that you’d recommend (or not recommend😬)? I would love to find someone local to support. Thanks in advance!

Anyone else's AC struggle to keep up yesterday afternoon?

36 Upvotes

AC works fine year round. Clean outside units. New filters monthly. Maintained consistently. No short cycling. Typical delta is 18-20 degrees from intake to air registers. I checked my thermostat history from last year and we didn't have any days where it struggled to keep up, but we also didn't really have days quite as hot as yesterday...

It did cool down once the sun went down. Just trying not to stress about the next week plus of severe heat....

Is $200 normal for a 2,000 sq ft house clean in Plano right now?

19 Upvotes

Trying to budget for bi weekly help because commuting on the tollway every day leaves me exhausted. I searched for an affordable cleaning service near me and quotes are literally all over the map from $90 cash to over $300. I want a quality house cleaning service near me that actually background checks their team but I don't want to get ripped off. What are y’all currently paying around here?

HVAC Runtime in this Heat

17 Upvotes

Just checking to see how your HVAC systems are running in this heat. I have a 2800sqft single level house. My system is running nonstop during the day. We have the temp set for 76. The system will run nonstop and It will slowly creep up to 78-79 degrees and run all day. As the temps cool the system will slowly cool the house down about 1 degree per hour. In the evening we set it to 74 and it eventually gets there around 11pm and cycles on/off as normal.

Is this normal? Or are your units able to get your home temps lower during the day without running nonstop?

Plumber Recommendations (Drain Line Repair)

3 Upvotes

Had a slow drain in my kitchen sink and had Drain Doctor come out to unclog it which they did (Via cleanout). Unfortunately, it looks like there's a break in the line about 5 feet down that will need to get repaired. I'm looking around and it seems like Plano Plumbing and Leak Detection is a solid option but wanted to see if there were any other recommendations from folks. Also hoping this isn't going to be toooo expensive since it's not that far down (according to the Drain Doctor tech). Thanks!
