How Ductwork Makes Your HVAC System Fail
Airflow is the unsung hero of your HVAC system, ensuring cool, consistent comfort in your home. But when your ductwork—the highways that air travels through—has issues like leaks, blockages, or poor design, airflow can’t do its job. This leads to uneven temperatures, higher energy bills, and overworked equipment that’s more prone to breakdowns. Common culprits include leaky or dirty ducts, improper installation, and unbalanced airflow, all of which create a traffic jam for conditioned air and threaten your HVAC system’s efficiency. At Fix It Frankie, we’ve seen it all—and we’ve fixed it all. Our approach includes inspecting and sealing ducts, clearing blockages, resizing poorly routed systems, and improving home sealing to restore smooth, balanced airflow. Just like a healthy nose needs clear passages to breathe, your HVAC system needs clear ductwork to keep your home cool and comfortable. Don’t let ductwork problems cramp your comfort—book a visit with Frankie today, and we’ll get your system breathing easy again.

What’s the Difference Between an Inverter and a Variable-Speed AC System?
Inverter technology and variable-speed AC systems are often mentioned together but refer to distinct components of modern HVAC systems. An inverter is an electronic device that regulates the compressor motor's speed, enabling precise temperature control, energy efficiency, and quiet operation. A variable-speed AC system, on the other hand, uses inverter technology to adjust its operation dynamically, maintaining consistent comfort, better humidity control, and lower energy consumption. While all variable-speed systems rely on inverters to function, the choice of system depends on factors like climate, budget, and noise sensitivity. Inverter-driven variable-speed systems are ideal for hot climates like Arizona, offering superior comfort, energy savings, and long-term value. If you're considering upgrading your HVAC system, these advanced technologies are worth the investment.
