3 A/C Condensate Drain Problems You Need to Know AboutYou might be surprised to learn that your home's central air conditioning has a second important function after cooling. If it's working properly, the A/C should also be dehumidifying the air in your home. Cool, moist air can feel clammy and uncomfortable, which defeats the ultimate goal of air conditioning: home comfort. The moisture that's being removed from the air has to go somewhere, and that place is the A/C's condensate collection pan and drain, which eventually connect to a home's sewer drainage system. Unless you schedule regular professional maintenance for your cooling system, A/C condensate drain problems can arise. Following are a few of the more common issues.

A Maintenance Agreement Gives You an Edge on Comfort, Extending Your Equipment's LifeHaving a maintenance agreement with a dependable contractor keeps your A/C working in the best possible condition with optimum efficiency. Scheduled maintenance also can identify small problems before they become large and expensive. In particular, regular inspections of your A/C can spot a potential problem that may still be under warranty before the warranty expires, saving you costly repairs. In extreme weather changes, such as a heat wave or unexpected cold snap, contractors receive many calls for services. You can stay ahead of the game with a maintenance agreement.

"Josh at Hartman Brothers did a good job. He quickly figured out the problem and got it fixed for 1/3 the cost I was expecting! He did not "find" problems or try to get us to upgrade, just did exactly what we needed him to do. I would strongly recommend calling Hartman Brothers for installing or repairing your AC/Heating!"

"I've had Hartman's install new Bryant H/Vac systems in 2 houses now and I've been pleased with the outcome at both houses. They are local, on time and reasonably priced. I've had a couple minor problems and Hartman Bros treated me fairly and took care of the issues. You don't buy 2 complete H/Vac systems from someone you don't trust or has treated you unfairly."

"Always a tremendous experience with Hartman Brothers. I have used them for more than 25 years and gotten to know their people more like friends/family than vendors... because that's exactly how they treat their customers! Always a pleasure to deal with and their work is exceptional as a bonus. Would give them 6 Stars if it was an option."
