American Air Heating & Cooling: Frequently Asked Questions

A load calculation is a detailed analysis our technicians perform to determine the exact heating and cooling needs (the “load”) of your home. It is absolutely essential because an improperly sized HVAC system can lead to significant problems.

• An oversized system will turn on and off too frequently, a process called “short-cycling.” This wastes energy, creates uneven temperatures, provides poor humidity control, and puts excessive wear and tear on the unit.  
• An undersized system will run constantly without ever reaching the desired temperature, leading to high energy bills and an uncomfortable home. Our load calculation considers many factors, including your home’s square footage, layout, insulation quality, the number and direction of windows, local Siouxland climate patterns, and even the number of people living in your home. This scientific approach ensures we install a system that is perfectly tailored for maximum efficiency and comfort.  

The lifespan of an HVAC system depends on the type of equipment, how well it was installed, and how consistently it has been maintained. With regular professional maintenance from our team, you can generally expect the following lifespans:

• Central Air Conditioners: 10 to 15 years
• Furnaces (Gas or Oil): 15 to 20 years
• Heat Pumps: 10 to 15 years
• Geothermal Systems: The indoor components can last 20-25 years, while the underground loop system can last 50 years or more.
• Tankless Water Heaters: 20 years or more
• Traditional Water Heaters: Around 10 years

HVAC efficiency is measured with specific industry ratings. Understanding these ratings helps you choose a system that will save you money on utility bills.

• SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio): This measures the cooling efficiency of air conditioners and heat pumps. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficient the unit is. The current minimum standard in northern states like Iowa is 13 or 14 SEER, but high-efficiency models can have ratings of 20 or more.  
• AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency): This measures how efficiently a furnace converts fuel (like natural gas) into heating energy. An AFUE of 95% means that 95% of the fuel is used to heat your home, while only 5% is lost. Investing in a system with higher SEER and AFUE ratings may have a greater upfront cost, but it leads to significant long-term savings on your energy bills.  

Your system will often give you warning signs before it fails completely. If you notice any of the following, it’s time to call us for an inspection:

• Unusual Noises: Banging, rattling, squealing, or grinding sounds can indicate loose parts, a failing motor, or other mechanical problems.  
• Strange Smells: A burning smell could indicate an electrical or motor issue, while a musty or moldy smell suggests moisture buildup in the system or ductwork.
• Reduced Airflow: If the air coming from your vents feels weak, it could be due to a clogged filter, a failing blower motor, or blockages in your ductwork.
• Inconsistent Temperatures: If some rooms are much hotter or colder than others, it could be a sign of ductwork problems or an improperly balanced system.
• System Constantly Running or Short-Cycling: If your unit runs nonstop or turns on and off every few minutes, it could be improperly sized or have a serious internal issue.

This is a crucial decision, and we help our customers weigh all the factors to make the best choice for their budget and comfort. Consider the following:

• Age of the System: If your furnace or AC is approaching the end of its typical lifespan (15+ years), replacement is often a wiser investment than sinking more money into an aging unit.
• Cost and Frequency of Repairs: A good rule of thumb is if a repair costs 50% or more of the price of a new system, replacement is the better option. If you are calling for frequent repairs, those costs add up and a new, reliable system makes more sense.
• Energy Bills: Older systems are far less efficient. Upgrading to a new high-efficiency American Standard model can significantly lower your monthly energy bills, helping the new system pay for itself over time.  
• Your Future Plans: If you plan to stay in your home for many years, you will reap the long-term benefits of a new system’s efficiency and reliability.

There are several effective ways to reduce your energy consumption:

• Regular Maintenance: An annual tune-up is the single best thing you can do to keep your system running at peak efficiency.
• Change Filters Regularly: A clogged filter restricts airflow and makes your system work harder. Check your filter monthly and replace it at least every 3 months.  
• Use a Programmable or Smart Thermostat: These devices can automatically adjust the temperature when you’re away or asleep, saving significant energy without sacrificing comfort.  
• Seal Air Leaks: Use caulk and weatherstripping to seal leaks around windows and doors. Also, ensure your attic and walls are properly insulated.
• Manage Sunlight: During hot Sioux City summers, close blinds and curtains on sun-facing windows to reduce heat gain and ease the load on your AC.

Ice buildup on your air conditioner, either on the outdoor unit’s copper lines or the indoor evaporator coil, is a clear sign of a problem. It may seem counterintuitive, but a frozen AC is often caused by a lack of warm air moving over the coils. The most common culprits are:

• Restricted Airflow: A severely clogged air filter or blocked/closed air vents prevent enough warm air from reaching the evaporator coil, causing it to get too cold and freeze over.
• Low Refrigerant: Refrigerant is what cools the air. When the level is low due to a leak, the pressure inside the system drops, causing the refrigerant to become much colder than normal and freeze the moisture on the coils.
• Dirty Evaporator Coils: A thick layer of dirt and grime on the indoor coils acts as an insulator, preventing them from absorbing heat from the air, which leads to freezing. If you see ice, turn your system’s fan on (but leave the cooling off) to help it thaw, and call us immediately. Running an AC while it’s frozen can cause serious damage to the compressor.

SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. It’s a measurement of how much cooling your air conditioner produces for each unit of electricity it consumes over a typical cooling season. In simple terms, the higher the SEER rating, the more energy-efficient the unit is. A higher SEER rating means lower monthly electricity bills. The current minimum SEER rating for new systems in northern states like Iowa is 13 or 14, but high-efficiency American Standard models can have SEER ratings of 20 or higher, offering significant long-term savings.

This is called “short-cycling,” and it’s not only inefficient but also puts major stress on your system’s components. Common causes include:

• An Oversized AC Unit: A system that is too large for your home will cool the space too quickly and shut off, only to turn back on again a few minutes later. This is why a professional load calculation is so important before installation.
• Dirty Air Filter or Condenser Coils: Restricted airflow from dirty components can cause the system to overheat and shut down prematurely as a safety measure.
• Low Refrigerant: A refrigerant leak can cause pressure imbalances that trigger the system’s safety sensors, leading to short-cycling.
• Thermostat Location: If your thermostat is placed in direct sunlight or near a heat-producing appliance, it will get a false reading and signal your AC to turn on and off incorrectly.

Unpleasant odors are your system’s way of telling you something is wrong.

• Musty or “Dirty Sock” Smell: This typically indicates the growth of mold or mildew on your indoor evaporator coil or in the condensate drain pan due to excess moisture.
• Burning Smell: A smell like burning plastic or rubber could signal an electrical failure, a wiring issue, or an overheating motor. If you smell this, turn off your system at the circuit breaker immediately and call for emergency service.
• Rotten Egg Smell: This usually indicates a natural gas leak somewhere in your home, which could be near your furnace. If you smell this, leave your home immediately, do not use any electronics or light switches, and call your gas company from a safe distance.

Your air conditioner naturally removes humidity from the air, which creates condensation. This water is supposed to collect in a drain pan and exit your home through a condensate drain line. While some condensation is normal, you should never see water pooling around your indoor unit. A water leak is almost always caused by a clog in the condensate drain line from algae or debris, which causes the water to back up and overflow the pan. In some cases, a frozen evaporator coil can also produce a lot of water as it thaws. We can quickly and safely clear the clog to prevent water damage to your home.

No, this is a common misconception. Your air conditioner’s refrigerant system is a sealed, closed loop. It does not “use up” refrigerant like a car uses gas. If your system is low on refrigerant, it means there is a leak somewhere in the lines. Simply adding more refrigerant without finding and fixing the leak is a temporary, ineffective, and environmentally irresponsible solution. Our technicians will locate the source of the leak, repair it properly, and then recharge the system to the manufacturer’s exact specifications.

While it seems like a good idea to protect your unit from Siouxland’s harsh winters, covering it can sometimes do more harm than good. A full, non-breathable cover can trap moisture, which can lead to rust and corrosion. It also creates an inviting home for rodents and other pests that may chew on the wiring. If you choose to cover your unit, use a cover that is specifically designed for AC units, which allows for airflow and only covers the top of the unit, leaving the sides open. This will protect it from falling leaves and debris without trapping damaging moisture. And always remember to remove the cover before starting the system in the spring!

If your furnace fails to start, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can take before calling for service:

1. Check the Thermostat: Make sure it has fresh batteries and is set to “HEAT.”
2. Check the Power: Look for the furnace’s power switch, which often looks like a standard light switch on or near the unit, and ensure it’s in the “ON” position. Then, check your home’s electrical panel to see if the circuit breaker for the furnace has tripped. If it has, reset it once. If it trips again, do not reset it and call us, as this indicates an electrical problem.
3. Check the Gas Supply: Ensure the gas valve to your furnace is open (the handle should be parallel to the gas line).
4. Check the Air Filter: A completely clogged filter can trigger a safety switch that prevents the furnace from turning on at all. If these steps don’t resolve the issue, the problem is likely internal, such as a faulty ignitor, blower motor, or control board, and requires professional service.

We are equipped to install, repair, and maintain a wide variety of heating systems to meet the diverse needs of Sioux City homes and businesses. Our expertise includes:

• Gas, Oil & Electric Furnaces: These are forced-air systems that heat air and distribute it through ductwork. Gas furnaces are the most common in our area.
• Boilers: These systems heat water that is then circulated through radiators, baseboard heaters, or in-floor radiant tubing to heat your home.
• Heat Pumps: These are two-in-one systems that provide both air conditioning in the summer and heating in the winter by moving heat, rather than creating it. They are often paired with a furnace in a “dual fuel” system for optimal efficiency in cold climates.
• Geothermal Systems: These highly efficient systems use the stable temperature of the earth to provide heating and cooling.
• In-Floor Radiant Heating: This involves circulating warm water through tubes under the floor, providing a very comfortable and even heat.

AFUE stands for Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency. It’s a percentage that tells you how much of the fuel your furnace consumes is converted directly into heat for your home. For example, a furnace with a 95% AFUE rating converts 95 cents of every dollar you spend on fuel into heat, while the remaining 5 cents are lost through exhaust. A higher AFUE rating means greater energy efficiency and lower heating bills. Modern high-efficiency American Standard furnaces can have AFUE ratings of 95% or higher, offering significant savings over older models which might operate at 80% AFUE or less.

Unusual noises are your furnace’s way of signaling a problem. You should never ignore them.

• Scraping or Grinding: This often points to a serious issue with the blower wheel or motor, such as worn-out bearings. Turn the system off immediately to prevent further damage and call for service.
• Loud Banging or Popping: This can happen shortly after the furnace turns on or off. It’s often caused by your metal ductwork expanding and contracting as it heats and cools. However, a loud bang at startup could also indicate a delayed ignition, where gas builds up before it ignites. This is a dangerous situation that requires immediate professional attention.
• Squealing or Whining: A high-pitched squeal often indicates a problem with the blower motor belt or the motor itself needing lubrication.

A rotten egg or sulfur smell is a clear indicator of a natural gas leak. This is an emergency situation. If you smell gas, follow these steps immediately:

1. Do NOT turn any lights or electronics on or off, and do not use your phone inside the house.
2. Leave the house immediately, taking all people and pets with you.
3. From a safe distance away from your home, call your gas utility’s emergency line and then call us at 712-252-2153. Do not re-enter your home until a professional has declared it safe.

It depends on when you smell it. It’s common to notice a slight burning dust smell the first few times you turn on your furnace for the season. This is usually just dust that has settled on the heat exchanger over the summer burning off and is not a cause for alarm. However, if you notice a persistent burning smell, especially one that smells like burning plastic or rubber, it could indicate an overheating motor or an electrical problem. In this case, you should turn the furnace off at the circuit breaker and call us for an emergency inspection.

We recommend having your system professionally serviced twice a year: a cooling tune-up in the spring and a heating tune-up in the fall. During these comprehensive visits, our certified technicians do much more than a simple check. A typical tune-up includes:

• Thoroughly cleaning condenser and evaporator coils to ensure efficient heat transfer.
• Checking refrigerant levels and pressures to identify potential leaks.
• Inspecting and tightening all electrical connections and testing capacitors and relays.
• Lubricating all moving parts, like motors and fans, to reduce friction and wear.
• Inspecting the condensate drain line for clogs and clearing it to prevent water damage.
• Calibrating the thermostat for accurate temperature readings.
• For furnaces, cleaning and inspecting the burners, flame sensor, and heat exchanger for safety and efficiency. Regular maintenance is crucial for extending the life of your equipment, improving energy efficiency, preventing costly breakdowns, and often, keeping your manufacturer’s warranty valid.

Your system will usually give you warning signs before a complete breakdown. Be on the lookout for:

• Unusual Noises: Any new banging, squealing, grinding, or rattling is a red flag.
• Strange Smells: A musty smell points to mold/mildew in the unit or ducts, while a burning smell can indicate a serious electrical or motor problem.
• Weak or No Airflow: This often starts with a clogged filter but can also mean a more serious issue with the blower fan or ductwork.
• Frequent Cycling: If your system turns on and off every few minutes, it’s working too hard and needs to be inspected.
• Water Leaks: Pooling water around your indoor unit is a sign of a clogged drain line or another internal problem.
• Higher Utility Bills: A sudden, unexplained spike in your energy costs often means your system has lost efficiency and is struggling to keep up.

Different noises point to different problems. It’s important to listen closely and call a professional, as ignoring these sounds can lead to more severe damage.

• Rattling: Could be as simple as a loose screw or panel, or debris inside the unit.
• Squealing or Whining: This high-pitched noise often indicates an issue with the blower motor or a worn-out belt.
• Banging or Clanging: A loud bang when the system starts could be a serious delayed ignition issue in your furnace. It can also be caused by loose or broken parts within the compressor or blower assembly.
• Buzzing: A buzzing noise from the outdoor unit can be a sign of a failing capacitor, a refrigerant leak, or a frozen unit. If you hear loud or alarming noises like grinding or banging, it’s best to turn the system off at the circuit breaker to prevent further damage and call us for service.

Yes, having your air ducts professionally cleaned is an important part of maintaining your home’s air quality. Over time, ducts can accumulate significant amounts of dust, pet dander, allergens, and even mold, which then gets circulated throughout your home. We recommend a professional cleaning every three to five years. You should never attempt to clean the ducts yourself, as you can easily damage them, leading to expensive repairs.

Before calling for service, running through a quick troubleshooting checklist can sometimes save you a service call.

1. Check the Thermostat: Ensure it’s set to the correct mode (“HEAT” or “COOL”), the temperature is set correctly, and the batteries are fresh if it’s battery-operated.
2. Check the Air Filter: A severely clogged filter can cause the system to shut down. Check it and replace it if it’s dirty.
3. Check the Power: Look at your home’s circuit breaker panel to see if the breaker for the HVAC system has tripped. Also, make sure any power switches near the indoor and outdoor units are turned on.
4. Check Your Vents: Make sure all supply and return air vents in your home are open and not blocked by furniture, rugs, or drapes.
5. Check the Outdoor Unit: Ensure the outdoor condenser unit is not covered in dirt, leaves, or other debris. A gentle spray with a garden hose can often help. If you’ve checked these items and the system still isn’t working, it’s time to call in the professionals.

A blank thermostat screen usually points to a power issue. The most common cause is dead batteries, so try replacing them first. If that doesn’t work, the issue could be a tripped circuit breaker or a safety switch on your furnace that has been triggered (often by a clogged filter or an overheating issue). Check your breaker panel, and if the problem persists, it’s best to have a technician investigate for issues like loose wiring or a faulty thermostat.

Ductless systems offer several significant advantages over traditional central HVAC systems:

• Zoned Comfort: Each indoor unit can be controlled independently, allowing you to set different temperatures in different rooms or “zones.” This means you can cool your living room without wasting energy cooling an unused guest bedroom.
• High Energy Efficiency: Traditional systems lose a significant amount of energy through leaks in the ductwork. By eliminating ducts, mini-splits are inherently more efficient. They also have very high SEER (cooling) and HSPF (heating) ratings, leading to lower utility bills.
• Flexible Installation: Because they don’t require bulky ductwork, installation is less invasive and more flexible. They are an ideal solution for older homes, historic properties, or any space where installing new ducts would be difficult and expensive.
• Improved Air Quality: While central systems can accommodate advanced filters, ductless units have their own multi-stage filtration systems that can significantly reduce dust, pollen, and other airborne contaminants in the air you breathe.

Not necessarily. The number of indoor units you need depends on your home’s layout, square footage, and your specific comfort goals. For example, a single, powerful indoor unit can often effectively heat and cool a large, open-concept living and dining area. Our technicians perform a professional load calculation to determine the right size and number of units to ensure every part of your home is comfortable without oversizing the system.

Absolutely. Modern ductless heat pump technology has advanced dramatically. Many American Standard models we install are specifically designed for cold climates and can provide efficient heating even when outdoor temperatures drop well below freezing. For the most extreme cold snaps, they can be paired with a small supplemental heat source to ensure your home stays warm and comfortable no matter what the weather is like outside.

Geothermal systems don’t create heat by burning fossil fuels; they simply move existing heat from the earth into your home. This process uses a very small amount of electricity, making them incredibly efficient—often reducing heating and cooling costs by up to 70%. Because there is no combustion, they produce virtually no onsite emissions, significantly reducing your home’s carbon footprint and making them the most environmentally friendly HVAC option.

Eligibility largely depends on your yard size and soil conditions, as the installation requires excavating to bury the ground loop. However, there are several types of loop configurations to fit different properties:

• Horizontal Loops: Ideal for properties with a larger amount of land.
• Vertical Loops: Require less surface area as the loops are installed in deep, vertical boreholes, making them suitable for smaller lots.
• Pond/Lake Loops: If you have a sufficiently large and deep body of water on your property, a loop can be installed at the bottom. A thorough site assessment by our expert team is the only way to determine which, if any, configuration is feasible for your property.

While the upfront cost of a geothermal system is higher than a traditional system, the long-term benefits are substantial:

• Lowest Operating Costs: The massive energy savings on your monthly utility bills can lead to a payback period of just a few years.
• Extremely Long Lifespan: The indoor unit has a lifespan of 20-25 years, while the underground ground loop is protected from the elements and can last for 50 years or more.
• Low Maintenance & Quiet Operation: The ground loop requires virtually no maintenance. The indoor unit is also very quiet since there is no noisy outdoor fan and compressor.
• Tax Credits & Incentives: The federal government often offers significant tax credits for installing geothermal systems, which can dramatically reduce the initial investment. We can help you identify and apply for all available incentives.

It can be. While the return on investment is greatest over the long term, a geothermal system significantly increases your property’s resale value and is a major selling point for energy-conscious buyers. We believe in being fully transparent about costs and will provide a detailed analysis of the upfront investment and projected energy savings to help you determine if it aligns with your financial goals and plans for the home.

Consistent, professional preventative maintenance is absolutely critical for a commercial HVAC system. It ensures reliability, maximizes efficiency, and prevents costly downtime that can disrupt your business. A comprehensive professional maintenance plan, which should be performed at least twice a year, includes:

• Inspecting and cleaning all internal and external components, including condenser and evaporator coils.
• Changing all air filters (a task business owners should also perform monthly).
• Checking and adjusting belts, screws, and other parts that can become loose with operation.
• Verifying correct refrigerant levels and inspecting for leaks.
• Inspecting all electrical components and connections, as electrical issues are a leading cause of mechanical failures.
• Calibrating the thermostat and testing building controls.
• Inspecting the ductwork for leaks or damage.

On average, a standard commercial HVAC system has a lifespan of about 15 years. However, this can be significantly extended. With a proactive maintenance plan and timely repairs, it’s very possible for a well-cared-for system to last 20 years or even longer. Neglecting maintenance is the fastest way to shorten the unit’s lifespan and face premature, expensive replacement costs.

The right system for a business depends on the building’s size, use, and layout. Common types include:

• Single-Split System: This is the most common type for smaller commercial spaces. It connects one outdoor unit to one indoor unit and is best suited for spaces like small offices or retail shops.
• Multi-Split System: This system allows multiple indoor units (up to nine) to connect to a single, powerful outdoor unit. This is more energy-efficient and allows for zoned temperature control, making it great for medium-sized office buildings or medical clinics.
• VRF/VRV (Variable Refrigerant Flow/Volume) System: This is a highly advanced and efficient system ideal for mixed-use buildings like hotels, large offices, or schools. It uses refrigerant to move heat between different zones, meaning it can simultaneously cool a server room while heating offices, recovering heat from one area and using it in another.

Sizing a commercial HVAC system is a critical process that should only be done by a qualified professional. An improperly sized unit will cause significant problems.

• A system that is too small will run constantly trying to keep up, leading to excessive wear and tear, high energy bills, and an uncomfortable environment for your employees and customers.
• A system that is too large will short-cycle (turn on and off too frequently), which wastes energy, creates poor humidity control, and also causes unnecessary wear on components. Our technicians perform a detailed load calculation that considers your building’s square footage, insulation, window placement, ceiling height, and even the heat generated by equipment and occupants to determine the perfect size for optimal performance.

Yes, absolutely. While a high-efficiency model may have a higher upfront cost, it provides two major long-term benefits. First, the immediate and significant savings on your monthly energy bills can be substantial. Second, because a more efficient system doesn’t have to work as hard to heat and cool your space, it experiences less wear and tear on its components. This can directly contribute to a longer lifespan, meaning you get more years out of your investment before needing a replacement.

Not all maintenance plans are created equal. Some providers may offer a low price that only covers changing the air filters and a quick visual check. A true preventative maintenance plan should be comprehensive. When evaluating a plan, ask if it includes detailed electrical and mechanical inspections, as these are critical for preventing costly failures. A quality provider like American Air will be transparent about the time and tasks included in their service agreement to ensure your system is being thoroughly cared for, protecting your investment and your business operations.
