Is your home in McHenry County, Lake County & Northwest Cook County, IL too hot? Overheated conditions aren’t always solved with lowering the thermostat. Sometimes, the air conditioner runs non stop, the monthly energy bills sky-rocket and you still have complaints with discomfort. There are a number of issues that can contribute to the problem, and V. M. O'Leary Sheet Metal & Heating is happy to find and solve them for you. Simply give us a call at (847) 462-7469 for same-day service across Algonquin, Carpentersville, Cary, Crystal Lake, Lake In the Hills, and Dundee, IL.

Here’s a few things to check if your home feels too hot:

Vents – Hold a hand up to the vents to determine if there’s any air flowing from them. If there’s nothing but warm air, it’s time to call V. M. O'Leary Sheet Metal & Heating to inspect the system and provide any required air conditioner repairs.
Insulation – Proper insulation reduces the workload of the air conditioner. It serves as a barrier against the outside heat and humidity. If the home lacks sufficient insulation or the insulation has been compromised, the investment into new installation can pay for itself. Make sure to pay attention to the attic!
Ductwork – Most homeowners are living with ductwork leaks. Up to 30% of your cool air might be escaping from flaws in the ducts, making it impossible for the air conditioner to keep up. Contact V. M. O'Leary Sheet Metal & Heating, ask for testing and find out about our Aeroseal duct sealing process.
Windows – Glass is a great heat conductor. If you have single glazed windows in the home, heat will radiate inside and warm up your rooms. Make an effort to close blinds, shades or curtains to block the sun.
A/C Maintenance – Without annual professional service, the performance of the air conditioner gradually diminished. The best way to ensure optimum capacity and comfort is through regular maintenance from the experts from V. M. O'Leary Sheet Metal & Heating.
