My Heating and Air Conditioning system is quite dirty and I observed that the air coming from the vents is not as hot as it used to be a year ago.
I have a digital thermometer that I can use to measure the air coming from the vents to see if it is within range of a healthy furnace.
I bet that the heat pump is starting to go off and that next Winter time I would be without heat if I don’t do something soon. I am going to take a look at it myself although I am not truly sure what I am supposed to be looking for but it is worth a shot. Maybe the heat pump has some signs of wear that I could see or maybe it isn’t even working at all anymore. This warmish air coming from the vents could entirely be the same temperature as the ambient air in our house and is just recycling it. I am going to bust out that thermometer and see what it says. Okay, I just checked the air from the vents and it is about 5 degrees warmer than the air in our flat which tells me the heat pump is working but not that well. Maybe they start to lose efficiency slowly and you can tell that it is not going to last much longer. I am going to go down to the Heating and Air Conditioning corporation and ask the outdated lady what she thinks. She seems to know everything about anything so I’m sure she has a nice answer for me.
