  • What's the unit in the closet or attic called?

    It's the evaporator section; it has the blower and cooling coils in it for A/C.

  • How often should I have my unit serviced?

    You should have it serviced twice a year. Once for a preseason check for summer on A/C and another for prewinter for your heating. 

  • Why does my unit not seem to do anything?

    Put the fan switch to the "on" position, it should start blowing. If it does not, check your breakers. Call us for further assistance!

  • Where are my breakers?

    You may have two breakers in the house's electric panel. You might also have some on the indoor unit of your system. 

  • We had a power outage and now my unit is not running?

    Power issues can damage relays and capacitors. You may need to have a tech check your system to look for signs of damage. 

  • Does Snowman Services accept any money transfer (mobile payment) apps?

    We accept Zelle. We also accept traditional credit cards, checks and cash.

  • Are new A/C systems changing to a new refrigerant?

    Yes, both A/C and refrigeration systems are changing to new units.

  • Why are the refrigerants changing?

    The EPA currently is trying to reduce greenhouse gases. The new refrigerants are all much lower in greenhouse gas potential.

  • What are SEER ratings?

    The efficiency rating of your system. The higher the number the higher the efficiency and the lesser amount of electricity it will use.
