If your home isn’t staying cool during hot Okanagan summers, there could be a few hidden issues at play. Here’s what might be causing your cooling problems—and how Radian Home Comfort can help you fix them.
1. Dirty or Clogged Air Filters
Air filters should be changed regularly. When they’re dirty, airflow is restricted, which forces your system to work harder and reduces cooling efficiency.
2. Refrigerant Levels Are Off
Low refrigerant levels in a cooling system may occur and indicate there is a leak. This can significantly affect your air conditioner’s ability to cool and may require immediate repair. Our professional HVAC service personnel have the tools to check the level and also look for a leak.
3. Poor Thermostat Placement
If your thermostat is in direct sunlight or near appliances such as your stove, it could be reading the wrong temperature and causing the system to short cycle.
4. Leaky or Poorly Insulated Ductwork
Cool air could be escaping before it reaches your living space. Ductwork that’s old, leaking, or poorly sealed needs professional attention
5. The HVAC System Is Simply Too Old
Older AC units lose efficiency over time. If your system is more than 10–15 years old, it may be time for an upgrade.
