Heating and cooling systems all have a regular range of sounds that they constantly make, but they should not be disruptive or really even heard. If your system is making weird sounds, it normally indicates that it needs heating and cooling service.
Take note of the sounds you’re hearing, turn off your system and call in experts like Halverson Brothers Inc. You may find that your system simply has a busted part, but it may also be an indicator that it needs a bigger repair. Recognizing how to pass along the sounds your system is making can help the heating and cooling service technician understand the issue.
Here are a couple of the more normal sounds that show a need for heating and cooling service and their possible causes:
- Rattling, banging, clanking or thumping—while rattling normally indicates a broken part, louder banging or thumping sounds might mean a part of your heating and cooling system has completely quick working or become detached.
- Repetitive clicking—If you listen carefully, you can hear a clicking sound when your heating and cooling system cycles on and off. This is normal. However, if you’re hearing this sound repeatedly, you potentially need a heating and cooling service appointment to check if it’s a problem with the system’s relay or its electrical control.
