Air Conditioning FAQ & Tips
At Home Mechanics, we recommend that you schedule tune-up services twice a year—once before the start of the summer months and once before winter begins. This can help you avoid unnecessary problems during the hottest and coldest months of the year.
Generally speaking, if your heating, air conditioning, or ventilation systems are not working properly, it’s wise to schedule service with a trained professional. How can you tell if your air conditioning and heating system isn’t working properly? Check for strange noises, unusual smells, reduced efficiency, higher energy bills, or other unexplained issues with your home’s systems.

There are three main types of air conditioning systems available, including:
- Ductless Mini-Split Air Conditioners: Ductless systems are a very popular solution in homes with multi-zone requirements, or when installing ductwork is not favourable or cost prohibitive. Currently in Massachusetts you can enroll in the Mass Save program and receive thousands in rebates towards your ductless mini split installation.
- Ducted Air-Conditioning: Ducted heating and air conditioning, also known as Central Air, can be quite efficient and is a popular system in new builds when builders may plan for ductwork throughout the structure of the home. With that said, they can have a high up front cost to plan for and install the ductwork. Central Air may not control individual rooms as easily without custom installation or modification.
- Portable Air conditioners: These are units you find in windows and are typically very easy to move room by room, or house by house. With relative low up front costs, they can be an effective way to cool a small area temporarily.
In general, yes!
Ductless is a great investment and solution to heating or cooling different zones of your home and remaining highly energy efficient. Ductless mini-split A/Cs are easy to install, easy to use, and backed by an incredible warranty.
