Air Conditioning Basics in Leander, TX

The four main components to your air conditioner are:

Condenser: The condenser is the outside metal unit and where the gas from the compressor is condensed into a liquid. The gas entering the condenser is very hot. The temperature is then lowered, so the gas can convert back to a liquid.

Compressor: The compressor is inside the condenser. It circulates the pressurized refrigerant, to concentrate the heat, and changes the low pressure gas to high pressure.

Evaporator: The evaporator is the part of the system inside the home. In simple language, it absorbs the heat from your home.

Expansion Valve: The expansion valve controls the amount of refrigerant in your system.

All of these pieces are connected by a copper tube that handles refrigerant, creating a closed loop. Heat is collected in the evaporator, sent outside to the condenser. The heat is removed, and the cool air is recirculated back into your home.

AC Facts

An Air Conditioner Doesn’t Create Cool Air.
What happens in the AC process is actually the removal of heat from the air. Your AC uses a chemical called refrigerant to remove heat and transfer it outside. The warm air runs through the lines and coils in your unit and goes from liquid to gas and back again. During this process, the refrigerant removes the heat and transfers it elsewhere so that when the air comes out the other side, it is cool.

Your AC Will Remove Humidity.
Lower humidity helps the overall comfort level in your home by making you feel cooler, even if the temperature is the same.

Your Air Filter Needs To Be Checked And Replaced Every Three To Six Months.
(depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations)
A dirty air filter restricts your air flow, which reduces efficiency, costing you money, and over time can put stress on your unit and could cause a costly repair.

Maintenance, Maintenance, Maintenance.
Your air conditioner needs regular checkups to keep it running in tip-top shape. Having regular annual preventative maintenance will bring your system longer life and fewer breakdowns over all.

SEER
The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) measures air conditioning and heat pump cooling efficiency, which is calculated by the cooling output for a typical cooling season divided by the total electric energy input during the same time frame. A higher SEER rating means greater energy efficiency.

At MLD Services, we provide all the services you need to keep your AC running in top-notch shape. Call us at 512-528-4258 for repairs, maintenance, or new-system installation.

“Braden arrived much earlier than expected, gave an honest accurate assessment and was able to repair right away. Thank you for such awesome work! I have saved your contact in my phone as "AC Repair" because that's all I need to have on hand now :)”

Air Conditioner Installation in Leander, TX 78641

“Had a brand new AC unit installed by Braden and one other gentleman (sorry I don't recall his name) this past summer. The installation went seamlessly and the new unit has worked extremely well ever since. I was really pleased with the whole process, from the initial answering of the phone, to discussing pricing and options with the sales guy to then scheduling and installing the new unit. Everyone I dealt with was very pleasant to speak with and very knowledgeable in their role. Braden came back out today to do the Fall inspection and to turn on the gas for the heater. I called today about the gas and Braden was out here in just a few hours time! He did the inspection, turned on the gas and ensured the heater was working properly and even gave me a gift card for the inconvenience of the gas not already being turned on, even though it really wasn't an issue for me being that it hasn't gotten very cold yet. He answered some other questions for me and I'm extremely pleased with his service and with my entire experience with MLD. Thank you!”

“I don't recall the name of the two technicians that installed my new unit, but from the initial service that you all came out for on my old unit, to the presentation of options for a new unit, to the installation of the new one and removal of the old one, I was extremely satisfied. Bryan was very prompt in communications with me, which I really appreciated. The technicians that came out were on time, efficient and very pleasant to deal with. They left all areas they worked on in the same condition as they were when they got here, so cleanup was great and the new system works exactly as it should.”
