  • Contact the company through Best Pick Reports or BestPickReports.com

Check your filter - a neglected, dirty furnace filter can significantly restrict airflow or cause your system to shut off completely. Check if your thermostat is working, especially if it's battery-operated. Check your electrical panel to see if anything is out of place, as HVAC systems can trip circuit breakers.
Best Pick Reports serves Metro Atlanta across several counties including Fulton County, Cobb County, Dekalb County, Cherokee County, Forsyth County, Fayette County, Clayton County, Henry County, Cowetta County and Rockdale County. Service areas include Atlanta city proper, Decatur, Sandy Springs, Marietta, Canton, Roswell, Alpharetta, Cumming, Lawrenceville, Peachtree City, Newnan, Stockbridge and McDonough.

Atlanta homeowners most frequently experience AC units not cooling properly during summer and furnace heating failures in winter, often caused by refrigerant leaks, dirty filters, and thermostat malfunctions.

Key local factors contributing to HVAC problems:

  • High humidity: Hot, muggy summers strain AC systems with heavy dehumidification loads
  • Aging systems: Many homes built in the 1970s-80s have original HVAC equipment nearing replacement
  • Poor airflow: 70% of systems have inadequate airflow due to dirty filters and maintenance neglect
  • Refrigerant issues: 44% of systems have improper refrigerant charge affecting cooling performance
  • Storm damage: Thunderstorms and occasional tornadoes can damage outdoor condenser units

Atlanta's mixed-humid climate accelerates HVAC wear, with call volumes increasing 2-3 times normal during peak summer heat waves and winter cold snaps. Regular maintenance helps prevent most common failures.
