Aaron’s Mechanical Services Helps You Sleep Like A Baby!

I just finished looking at this week’s forecast and was very surprised to find that we will see a touch of Arizona spring weather (at least for the next couple of days) with a high afternoon temp of just sixty-nine degrees.  A drop of more than twenty degrees in just three days-time.

With storms still hanging on in parts of the east and major wet storms predicted for the mid-west I’m very happy to be in the Valley of the Sun.

We can enjoy these great spring-time temperatures for the next few days but looking ahead the National Weather Service shows we will be back into the mid-nineties in just a week.  With a ninety-three showing for a week from Wednesday.  The Phoenix Metro area AC Units will be humming away before long.

We don’t want you losing sleep worrying about your air conditioner, will it work and can you afford your coming summer electric bills.  Your HVAC system will run better (think less expensive) after a tune-up.

If you get that spring tune-up behind you, you can feel confident you are ready the first time you need your ac to get cooled off for this season’s hot weather. 

Sleep confidently with an home air conditioner tune-up from Aaron’s Mechanical Services. We are your neighborhood Fast and Fair AC repair.  The sooner you make the call the sooner we can get your spring Air Conditioner tune-up completed.

Aaron’s Mechanical Services Helps You Save Money On Your AC Costs!

Do you think that “Aaron’s Mechanical Services Helps You Save Money On Your AC Costs” is a rather bold statement?

We sure don’t think that is too bold a statement.  If we weren’t sure of it we would not say it. Consider that from needing a tune-up, proper and complete repairs to a replacement unit when needed we can help.

If we look at Tune-ups, repairs and replacements as three very different and distinct services and three different reasons for the needs we know that each one and for different reasons all will save you money on your future energy bills. 

Tune-ups
Properly running air conditioner units use less energy (think lower costs) than ac units that are not properly maintained.

When it comes to operating your air conditioning system in the heat of summer, energy efficiency is the key to savings. The less energy the system expends, the more money you save on your monthly utility bills. Although each part of the system has its own purpose, every element is interconnected to one another other. A single faulty component can impair your system’s performance. That will compel your air conditioner to run longer to reach a comfortable indoor temperature. 

Cooling systems require regular tune-ups to ensure that all the parts work in harmony with each other for optimal energy efficiency. While you can perform some air conditioner maintenance tasks yourself, such as cleaning or replacing the system’s air filter, it takes a skilled and qualified professional to ensure that air conditioner to operate at its peak efficiency.

Repairs As Needed
If your HVAC system has a problem it will have to work harder or run longer than a cooling system that is running at its best efficiency. That means it will consume more electricity and end up costing you much more money than an AC Unit that is running correctly.

When Replacement Is Necessary 
At some point in the life on ANY Air Conditioner (like any machine) it will need to be replaced. Replacement should only be considered when necessary (You might even say when replacement is the only real option.) In some cases, however, replacement can become desirable when a new unit will run so much more efficiently (again think saving real dollars on a monthly basis) than the existing unit that it makes real economic sense do a replacement.

Aaron’s Mechanical Services wants you to stay comfortable all year round.  Most important we want you to spend the least amount of money possible while you stay comfortable. If your air conditioning system or HVAC unit needs service or replacement please think of us and call at 623-388-4436 and we will come to you and solve your cooling Unit service needs.

Have You Used Your Car’s Air Conditioning Yet?

Have You Used Your Car’s Air Conditioning Yet? That might seem like a very strange question coming from a company that works on ONLY residential and business air conditioners. But, if you are finding that you need to cool the interior of your car to be comfortable, how long can it be before you need to run your air conditioner to have your home be cool and comfortable?

Is your home AC unit ready for the summer cooling season? And when exactly does that “summer” cooling season start?

The calendar may say that Summer officially starts in late June, the 21st  at 6:51am EDT, to be exact, but here in The Valley Of The Sun we can see one-hundred degrees Fahrenheit in just the next few days.  The temperature has already touched the low nineties in some parts of the Phoenix Metro Area during March.

Can the first time, this year, you reach for the thermostat and move the selector to Air Conditioning is right around the corner, time wise.

That brings us to the big question.  Will your AC unit run, or run properly when you first need it?  A Tune-up from Aaron’s Mechanical Services will make sure your home is ready and protected from HVAC problems.

We are all guilty of putting things off.  But do you really want to that again this year?  Don’t you want the peace of mind knowing that Air Conditioning is one thing you don’t have to worry about? Sure you do!

Picking up the phone and calling 623-388-4436 is all you have to do. If you have an Apple iPhone you don’t even have to dial the number, you can just tell Siri to do it for you.  Here we go, say “Siri” call “6” “2” “3” “3” “8” “8” “4” “4” “3” “6” … Now that was easy wasn’t it?

If you wait to do a repair it will cost more and you may have to wait in line to have a service tech fix your problem.  You know that there are a bunch of folks out there who won’t call and get a tune-up.  When it comes time to make your home cool and comfortable you can be ready or you can “hope” that you are ready.

Will your AC unit be ready or will you be one of those calling to have your home rescued from the heat?  You are familiar with Murphy’s Law aren’t you? If you aren’t here it is!

If Something Can Go Wrong, It Will!

Cool Arizona Places: Japanese Friendship Garden

Looking for a very local Cool Place for this weekend?  You may want to consider the Japanese Friendship Garden.

If you're looking for a very relaxed and beautiful experience, look no further than the Japanese Friendship Garden. The 3½ acre park is a symbol of friendship between Phoenix and her sister city Himeji in Japan, and took 50 architects from Japan more than 60 trips to Phoenix to build since 1987. 

Here, you won't find Sakura, the popular Japanese cherry blossom trees, but you will spot purple leaf plums, Japanese maples, and evergreen pears that provide plenty of shady spots to take a Zen 
moment. This relaxing park is considered to be a traditional Japanese, strolling garden.

Come tour the peace and beauty of Ro Ho En! With serene landscape views at every turn of the path, your stroll along the wide walkway is a pleasant, rewarding experience. 

Self-Guided Tours

To enhance our experience, a self-guide map is available in the gift shop which will explain some of the landscape views and features unique to Japanese garden design. The map is free for visitors. Please recycle the map at the end of your visit if you do not wish to take it home as a souvenir.

A map of all the plants in the garden is also available for purchase at the gift shop.

A Japanese garden is a concentration of natural beauty, instilled within the confines of an enclosed space. It is not a "park" in our western sense, but rather where visitors may quietly reflect and seek harmony with the natural world and within themselves, a tradition that is centuries old. The Garden Etiquette outlines ways you can honor and respect the traditions of the Japanese Garden.

Please stay on the path at all times.
Please do not climb trees, rocks or enter waterfall areas.
To maintain the quiet and serenity of the garden, please refrain from using loud voices and shouting. Running is prohibited.

Location:  1125 North 3rd Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85003

Admission:  Adult: $5; Children under 6: Free

Hours:  October through May - Tuesday through Sunday, 10:00am to 4:00pm

Will It Snow Today? Something We Never Ask In Phoenix AZ

Will it snow today? Well, that is something we almost never ask here in Phoenix Arizona.

While it will reach ninety degrees in parts of the Valley of the Sun today,  it is still predicted to snow in seven eastern states today. 

For those native Arizonans, who rarely, if ever, see or think about snow, here is how the National Weather Service classifies or defines the term “snow.” Snow is a type of precipitation in the form of crystalline water ice, consisting of a multitude of snowflakes that fall from clouds. Since snow is composed of small ice particles, it is a granular material. It has an open and therefore soft structure, unless packed by external pressure.

Most of us here in the Phoenix Metro area are familiar with the saying, “You Never Have To Shovel Sunshine.” That in and of itself is a great reason to live here.  Of course, like anything in life, there is a trade-off.

Yes, we are running above normal temperatures this spring, but it does get to ninety degrees Fahrenheit in March many times during the Spring season.  And this year is no exception.  Our normal average first 100 degree day is in the middle of May.  But my guess is that it will be much sooner this year.

I have a question for you… Is your Air Conditioner ready?  Your ac unit hasn’t run in months.  The first day you need your AC, is the HVAC going to be ready?

Here at Aaron’s Mechanical Services we can help with that.  We can visit your home and get your Air Conditioner ready for the up-coming Summer season. Having a more efficient cooling system means  more money in your pocket by lowering your electric bill.

Did You Know?

The greatest amount of snow ever recorded at the official reporting station in Phoenix was 1.0 inch on January 20 1933, and on January 21 and 22 1937.  Wow, snow three days in a row here in Phoenix. Who knew?

Other times measurable snow was recorded include:

0.5 inches on February 2 1939, 0.4 inches on December 21 and 22 1990, 0.2 inches on March 12 1917, 0.1 inches on November 28 1919 and then 0.1 inches on December 11 1985.

Trace amounts of snow have been recorded on numerous occasions.

The most recent snow of significance, in areas below 2000 feet, was on December 6 1998. Snow fell over roughly the northwest half of the valley...where some accumulation was reported. Sky Harbor Airport recorded 0.22 inches of precipitation that day...but only a trace of snow.

How High Will Phoenix Reach in March 2014?

If you watched the news and weather this morning you know the mid-west and eastern seaboard are still in the deep freeze while here in the Valley of the Sun we are bumping up against ninety degrees Fahrenheit.

When do you feel we will go from warm to hot this year? A more important question maybe, is your air conditioner ready to keepl you cool and comfortable? Yes, I know, it was working when you shut it off at the end of our last summer’s cooling season.

Do you know that some HVAC companies recommend that once a month an AC unit needs to be run for ten to twenty minutes to keep the unit in good shape.  I don’t know about you but while the temperature in December was in the low fifties I didn’t want to run an air conditioner for twenty minutes.

We would like to remind you that now is a great time to do your spring AC tune-up.  Do it now and that way you know your HVAC unit or air conditioner will really be ready for the coming summer heat-waves.

Did You Know?

An average Phoenix Metro Area summer has 106 days above one-hundred degrees.

I don’t know if you would consider this worse news, but here is the average number of days that will be over 110 degrees here in the Valley of the Sun – 17.

Want to know what year we had the most number of days at or above 110 degrees?  That was 32 days in 2007. Wow, a whole month worth of days at or above 110 degrees Fahrenheit! Don’t blame the National Weather Service for that, they just keep track of the statistics.

In 1974 Phoenix had 18 consecutive days with maximum temperatures of 110 or higher.

Here is one temperature fact that we don’t often think about. The record high for an overnight low is 96.  Ninety-six degrees would be considered a respectably hot summer day in most of the rest of the country.

So enjoy our fantastic spring weather and temperatures, here in the Phoenix Metro area, while you can.
