When summer hits Hamilton, the last thing you want is your AC calling it quits in the middle of a heatwave. Whether you’re running a business or keeping the family cool at home, your HVAC system works overtime this season—and a breakdown could mean discomfort, lost productivity, or worse.
Here are five clear signs it’s time to call Greg’s Plumbing & Heating before your system fails:

1. Weak Airflow
If your vents are blowing like a tired whisper instead of a refreshing breeze, you could have a clogged filter, blocked ductwork, or a failing compressor. Don’t wait until the system burns out—weak airflow is your HVAC’s cry for help.
2. Strange Noises
HVAC systems should hum quietly in the background. If you’re hearing rattling, banging, or screeching, it might be a loose part or a motor issue that needs fast attention.
3. Uneven Cooling
Hot upstairs, freezing downstairs? Your system might be improperly sized, out of balance, or in need of a zoning upgrade. We’ll figure it out and make sure your comfort is consistent across every room.
4. Spiking Energy Bills
A sudden jump in your utility bill with no change in usage is a big red flag. Your HVAC may be working too hard to do too little, driving up costs and wearing itself down faster.
5. It’s Over 10 Years Old
Even if it seems to be running fine, older HVAC systems are less efficient and more prone to failure. A quick inspection can help you plan ahead before you’re stuck in a hot house with no relief.
