We visited a homeowner in Henderson who reported their system was short cycling—turning on and off too quickly without maintaining temperature. Alongside a scheduled duct and dryer vent cleaning, we performed a full diagnostic to uncover what was behind the erratic behavior.
After inspecting the system, we confirmed that the equipment itself—installed in 2021—was in good mechanical condition with no signs of failure or safety concerns. However, airflow was noticeably restricted. The air filters were extremely clogged, which had caused the system to short cycle. That restriction limited air movement and led to frequent shutdowns before the home reached the desired temperature.
Performed a full duct cleaning to remove built-up dust and debris from the ventilation system.
Cleared out the dryer vent to improve exhaust flow and reduce fire risk.
Removed and replaced the clogged air filters to restore proper airflow.
Verified that the system was no longer short cycling after cleanup.
Enrolled the homeowner in the Bob’s Family Plan for ongoing preventative maintenance and tune-ups.
With clean ductwork, a cleared dryer vent, and new filters in place, the system is now operating smoothly with full airflow. Short cycling has stopped, and the homeowner now benefits from reliable performance—and ongoing support through their Family Plan membership.
