Try These Quick Fixes Before Calling Comfort Monsters

  • Do a quick review of the basics

    If you look at your thermostat and it says (not blinks) “heating” and nothing is happening, give us a call.

  • Inspect the air filter for clogging

    Air filters need to be changed or they’ll impact your blower’s life. Check your filter and replace it to see if your airflow increases.

  • Reset the HVAC breaker

    Sometimes, all you need is a quick reset. Go into your breaker box, find the large breaker, often 30 or 60 amps, that’s labeled heat and switch it off. Wait a minute or so and switch it back on to be sure it works.

  • Check if vents and registers are fully open

    Weak airflow and uneven heat may be a simple fix. Open all of your vents to see if that’s the culprit.

Common HVAC Repair Issues We See in Raleigh

Weak or No Airflow

What is the problem?Air is either barely coming out of your vents or has stopped entirely, making it impossible to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home.
What caused it?This is usually caused by a heavily clogged air filter restricting flow or a blower motor that has worn out and can no longer push air through the ductwork.
Will it happen again?With regular filter changes every 30–90 days, you can prevent most airflow issues. However, mechanical parts like motors will eventually reach their end-of-life.

Unit Running But Not Cooling

What is the problem?Your HVAC system is powered on and humming away, but the air blowing through the house isn’t actually cold.
What caused it?The culprit is often a miscalibrated thermostat or a failing compressor. Because so many different components can cause this, a professional “Monster” diagnostic is usually required.
Will it happen again?Electrical components like thermostats can fail due to age, but keeping your outdoor unit clear of debris helps protect the compressor from overworking and failing prematurely.

Refrigerant Leak

What is the problem?Your system is losing the “coolant” it needs to remove heat from your home. This forces the unit to run longer cycles while producing less cooling.
What caused it?Leaks typically develop over time due to formicary corrosion (pitting in the copper coils) or vibrations that cause connections to loosen and crack.
Will it happen again?Simply “topping off” the refrigerant is a temporary fix. Unless the leak is found and sealed, the refrigerant will continue to escape until the system fails again.

Frozen Outdoor Unit

What is the problem?Ice has physically built up on your outdoor coils or brass refrigerant lines, even when it’s hot outside. This effectively “insulates” the unit against doing its job.
What caused it?This is typically triggered by restricted airflow (dirty coils/filters) or low refrigerant levels, both of which cause the coil temperature to drop below freezing.
Will it happen again?If the underlying airflow or leak issue isn’t resolved, the unit will likely freeze up again within hours of the ice melting.

Loud Noises or Vibrations

What is the problem?Your system is making unusual sounds—like banging, screeching, or buzzing—or you can feel the unit vibrating through the walls.
What caused it?These are warning signs of mechanical distress. It could be something as simple as a loose fan blade or as serious as a motor bearing failing or a compressor “slugging”.
Will it happen again?Mechanical noises rarely go away on their own; they usually get louder until the part fails completely. Early intervention prevents a small noise from becoming a total system replacement.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Just had my first experience with Comfort Monster and it was all it had been cracked up to be. From initial inquiry through service call and payment -- the emphasis on technology was noticeable and awesome (including the text message telling me that the technician had just pulled up at my house!). Props for bringing a tired industry a fresh face!

I was so pleased with their service that I switched my annual maintenance contract over to them. The technicians are experts in their field and very professional in delivery of their service. What surprised me the most was the amount of information they provided to me about my systems, not only verbally but in a very detailed written report. They also provided options as to short term and long term maintenance and replacement options ... I felt I could trust they were providing me the information I needed to make the best choice for me, rather than trying to upsell me.

We were very pleased with Comfort Monster's attention to detail, thorough cleaning, & system check. With other companies, we have never received such detailed reports/explanations. We were also pleased that they reported our old system seems to be in generally good shape. We highly recommend them!

FAQs

How long does HVAC repair usually take?

That depends on the problem. Simple residential repairs take 30 minutes to an hour. Complex issues (like compressor replacement or duct cleaning) take several hours or more.

Why is my HVAC system not heating or cooling properly?

Your unit may not be working properly if:

  • The filter is clogged
  • Refrigerant levels are low
