FAQs
Q: How often should I replace my AC filters in Arizona?
A: In Arizona's dusty environment, especially during haboob season, you should check your filters monthly and replace them every 60-90 days. Homes with pets, allergy sufferers, or those near construction areas in growing communities like Queen Creek or Gilbert may need even more frequent changes. Clogged filters force your system to work harder in our extreme heat, leading to higher energy bills and potential breakdowns.
Q: What size AC unit do I need for my Phoenix area home?
A: Proper sizing is critical in Arizona where undersized units can't keep up with 115°F+ temperatures, while oversized units short-cycle and fail to remove humidity effectively. The calculation depends on square footage, insulation quality, window placement, and sun exposure. Most Phoenix Valley homes require 1 ton of cooling per 400-500 square feet, but factors like vaulted ceilings, west-facing windows, and older insulation can significantly impact requirements. Viking provides free in-home assessments to ensure proper sizing.
Q: Should I repair or replace my aging HVAC system?
A: In Arizona, if your AC system is over 10-12 years old, replacement often makes more financial sense due to our systems' heavy workload. Consider replacement if you're facing repairs exceeding $3,000, your energy bills are increasing despite maintenance, or your system uses R-22 refrigerant (now banned and expensive). Newer systems can be 30-50% more efficient, which adds up quickly when your AC runs most of the year. We'll always provide honest recommendations based on your specific situation.
Q: What are the benefits of a programmable or smart thermostat in Arizona?
A: Smart thermostats are particularly valuable in the Phoenix Valley where cooling costs can exceed $500 monthly during summer. These devices can reduce energy use by 20-30% by automatically adjusting temperatures when you're away or asleep. Many integrate with APS and SRP peak-hour pricing plans, shifting cooling to cheaper time periods. Features like humidity control and maintenance reminders are especially useful in our climate. Viking installs and programs all major smart thermostat brands.
Q: How can I improve my home's indoor air quality in dusty Arizona conditions?
A: Arizona's dust, pollen, and outdoor pollutants create unique air quality challenges. We recommend starting with high-quality filters (MERV 8-13), adding UV light purification systems to kill bacteria and mold, and considering whole-home air purifiers. Proper duct sealing prevents dust infiltration, while humidity control systems combat our ultra-dry air that can irritate respiratory systems. Regular duct cleaning every 3-5 years also helps maintain healthy indoor air.
Q: What maintenance should I perform on my HVAC system between professional services?
A: Arizona homeowners should check and replace filters monthly, keep the area around outdoor units clear of debris (especially after dust storms), gently rinse outdoor coil fins with a hose quarterly, ensure all vents are open and unblocked, and monitor your thermostat for unusual temperature swings. Check that your condensate drain line flows freely - algae growth is common in our climate. However, leave refrigerant checks, electrical components, and deep cleaning to professionals for safety and warranty purposes.
Q: Why is my energy bill so high during Arizona summers?
A: Phoenix Valley summer energy bills can shock even long-time residents. Common culprits include inefficient older systems (10+ years), dirty filters forcing systems to work harder, poor insulation allowing heat infiltration, air leaks around windows and doors, incorrect thermostat settings, or oversized systems that short-cycle. Our energy efficiency assessment identifies specific issues in your home. Simple fixes like sealing ducts, adding insulation, or upgrading to a high-efficiency system can reduce bills by 25-40%.
