Common Signs That
You Need AC Repair in
Savannah, GA

Once springtime rolls around, it's very important that you keep your eyes and ears open for any potential warning signs that your A/C unit needs to be repaired. The last thing you need is to be caught off guard when June, July, and August are in full swing. Knowledge is power, and at Liberty Heating & Air, committed to keeping our customers in the loop about potential A/C repair warning signs. That way, you can take preventative steps rather than reactive ones.

 Heater Repair Services Savannah, GA
Loud-Unusual-Noises
Loud, Unusual Noises

Don't be alarmed if your A/C unit makes low-level noises throughout the day and night - these sounds are completely normal. However, if you hear loud, unusually abrupt noises coming from your unit, it may be time to have it repaired. Buzzing or rattling noises can mean a part is loose, while grinding or whistling can signal a more serious problem. Because these types of issues won't work themselves out on their own, a professional is needed to diagnose and correct the problem.

Strong-Odors
Strong Odors

If you notice strange, smelly odors permeating throughout your home, your first instinct may be to grab the air freshener. However, unpleasant odors can be a sign that your A/C unit needs attention. Our A/C repair techs will let you know what's going on and how a potential issue can be remediated with a quick diagnostic test.

Refrigerant or Water Leaks
Refrigerant or Water Leaks

Your A/C unit needs refrigerant to keep your home cool and comfortable when it's hot outside. It's common for condensation to accumulate as your system cools your home. With that said, if you notice pooling water or an active leak coming from your A/C system, it's time to call an A/C repair tech ASAP. Leaks can cause extensive damage to your home, and the problem needs to be addressed quickly.

Heater Repair in
Savannah, GA

South Georgia isn't known for its freezing temperatures, but one thing is for sure - wintertime in Savannah can get very cold. When the temps begin to drop, your home's furnace works properly. Modern homes have come a long way since the days of wood and coal. Your home's heater is complicated, and when one component fails, the entire system can be affected. In situations like these, it's important not to panic. Instead, give Liberty Heating & Air a call.

Here are just a few of the most common issues that we can help repair:

Common Signs That You Need Furnace Repair in Savannah, GA

 Heating And Cooling Repair Savannah, GA

Today's heating systems are complex. At Liberty Heating & Air, our heating repair technicians receive ongoing training in all aspects of heating technology. That way, their skills stay sharp, and their techniques remain up to date. However, you don't need to be an expert to spot common signs that your heater may need to be repaired.

As colder months approach in Georgia, try to be aware of the following red flags:

Expensive Heating Bill

You're probably used to a more expensive electricity bill when winter hits Savannah. However, if you notice a huge price jump over last year's bill, it could be a sign that something is wrong with your heating system. Utility companies are known for raising prices gradually, but a dramatic leap is a cause for concern.

Uneven Heating
Uneven-Heating

Does your heater seem to work perfectly in some areas of your house but not others? Are some rooms too hot while others are drafty and cold? If so, your heater may need repairing. This is a common issue in older homes and requires an expert to inspect your heater and ducts for airflow problems.

Unhealthy Air Quality
Unhealthy Air Quality

If the air in your house is hazy no matter how much you dust, your heater may be the problem. A furnace that circulates mildew, dust, and other harmful particles isn't working correctly. This issue is particularly bad for people with asthma or respiratory illnesses. If you haven't changed your home's air filter recently, be sure to do so. If the problem persists, it's time to call Liberty Heating & Air.

New AC Installation
in Savannah, GA

You and your family depend on your home's A/C system to keep you cool and comfortable during the hottest months of the year. Unfortunately, breakdowns happen at the worst possible times - like in the middle of July when temperatures are over 90 degrees. If you have had to repair your A/C system more and more often, investing in a new cooling system will save you time and money in the long run.

As an Authorized Carrier and Goodman dealer - two of the most recognized and respected brands in our industry - we have the highest quality units available. We handle every aspect of your new A/C installation from start to finish. That way, you can focus on living your life rather than worrying about the next time your A/C goes out.

Curious when it might be time for a new A/C system?

Keep an eye out for these warning signs:

Dusty Furniture

 HVAC Savannah, GA

If you have kept your unit well-maintained and changed your air filter regularly, you shouldn't experience this problem. If you do, and your system is old, it can be more cost-effective to replace it and have your duct system analyzed to fix the root cause of your dust issue.

High Humidity

 HVAC Repair Services Savannah, GA

If it feels unusually sticky in your home, like you just spent a few hours outside in the summertime, there's a good chance that something is seriously wrong with your air conditioning. Your air conditioner's job is to pull moisture out of the air to keep your feeling cool inside. When that process fails, it can increase your risk of mold and mildew growth - and that's just the start.

Frequent Repairs

 HVAC Services Savannah, GA

When your repair bills end up costing more than a down payment on a new A/C system, it might make more financial sense to invest in a more modern unit. Compare how much it costs to have our maintenance technicians perform regular service vs. the cost of a new air conditioning installation. The results may surprise you.

It’s a reference to a gag in the 2004 comedy “Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story,” staring Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller.

Here’s how to tune in.

Banana Ball was invented in 2018 by team owner Jesse Cole. The first official game was played on June 26, 2020, at the team’s Grayson Stadium.

Savannah Morning News

In February 2011, I found myself at Gallery Espresso at an intimate roundtable with 2010 National Book Award Winner Jaimy Gordon. I was part of a Savannah writers’ group that was invited to meet with her while she was in town for the 3rd Annual Ashley and Terry Ursrey Memorial Lecture. She made a point to inquire about the work of us veritable nobodies. She asked if our writing focused on Savannah and its people.

A few of us said yes, but most of us said no because we were not Savannah natives, or we were writing outside of non-fiction or realistic fiction genres. I recall telling her that I had hoped to write about the Hostess City and its people someday. I had only been here two and a half years, though. I wasn’t sure I would even be staying for much longer.

Making a home in Savannah

Beyond a weekend tourist trip back in the late 1990s, my experience of life in Savannah began in August 2008. I lived on the Southside of town at the residence halls of Armstrong Atlantic State University (now Georgia Southern’s Armstrong Campus). By May 2010, I had wrapped my English degree studies and had been admitted to graduate school for creative writing. With one foot out of Savannah’s door on my way to Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania (sister city to Scranton, home of The Office), I met Carey Black. She was a fellow northern expatriate and extremely talented graphic designer. Ours is a Savannah story (perhaps for another time) of how the city’s charm clunks against its messy but equally beautiful reality.

Our chance meeting marked the first time I pictured Savannah as a long-term home. My graduate program was low residency, which allowed me to write, learn, and grow while remaining mostly in Savannah. Carey and I built friendships, enjoyed the music scene, and got involved in the community through organizations such as C-Spot, DEEP Center, Seersucker Live, and the Flannery O’Connor Childhood Home. The Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) hired me to work in its admissions department.

A few years later, in October no less, Carey and I weathered a near-hit by Hurricane Sandy on our wedding day. We bought a house in Victory Heights, where we experienced more of Savannah’s wondrous complexities. Two kids later with a third on the way, we found a house with more functional space on Isle of Hope. Professionally, I moved into the Career & Alumni Success Office at SCAD where I connected with scholars, peers, and industry leaders from a wide swath of creative and design disciplines. I became a student of trends in a variety of industries and in higher education itself. My children grew up. Carey and I educated ourselves in the local school choice lottery program. We researched the “best” schools for our inquisitive four-year-old son. We were very lucky to land him in our top pick where he has thrived these last five years along with his two sisters, who soon followed in his footsteps.

'My writing will be telling Savannah’s stories every day'

Education has served me well in life. I have seen it change the lives of many people for the better. As a career adviser in higher education, I helped others research and devise strategies for success. They often went on to greater achievements than I or they could have ever imagined. I have also seen firsthand how a system built for certain types of people can swallow up others. My brother closest in age to me was one such person. I have also witnessed how access to gainful employment can reshape one’s access to opportunities for themselves, their families, and even their communities.

Throughout my time at SCAD, I had access to the wider world where I could see the tremendous impact its students and alumni were making. I always felt a slight disconnect, however, from the world just down the street or across the park, and desired to do more for my community. Serving as the Education and Workforce Development Reporter will provide me with the opportunity to shed light on local struggles and challenges, successes and accomplishments. My aim in my new role is to effectively, accurately and respectfully cover the stories related to K-12, colleges, and workforce development as well as allied educational nonprofits. Literacy will be a key focus of my reporting as it is one of the greatest challenges facing our community within schools and in the workforce. I also plan to examine the exponential growth Savannah has experienced in the last few years as well as what is to come with new industries taking root in the area.

So, after 15 years, I can say yes to Ms. Gordon. My writing will be telling Savannah’s stories every day. I am happy to refer to myself as a local and even more thrilled to be the new Education and Workforce Development Reporter for Savannah Morning News.

Which Savannah-area high school football teams will travel the most miles in 2023?

Football fans are excited about their favorite high school teams getting back on the field for Savannah's version of Friday Night Lights.

But coaches, parents and players also have to deal with long trips across the state of Georgia that take a toll on programs in a variety of ways. We took a look at how far each team in the Greater Savannah area has to travel this season and came up with some interesting numbers.

Memorial Day, which plays in the Georgia Independent School Association, leads the pack with mileage on the road totaling 1,746 miles on the season, which is 100 miles more than a one-way bus ride to Albuquerque, New Mexico. The Matadors longest round trip is a 548 voyage to play at Notre Dame Academy in Duluth, a nearly 8-hour round trip.

The Matadors have just three home games — with a pair at Memorial Stadium this season and one at Pooler Stadium. In recent years, the program has had seasons where they only hosted one home game, so things are improving on that front.

"It's actually better than usual for us," said Memorial Day coach Jaha Taylor, in his second year leading the program. "But our goal is to get a more balanced schedule and be able to play in front of our home crowd more often. It costs a lot of money to travel with gas and food and everything else, and we'd like to put that money in other places to help our program.

"It's tough to get off a bus after a four-hour trip and go out and play. It also cuts down on practice time -- it puts you in a tough situation with so many variables. But we're going to do our best to deal with it this season."

The longest round trip for a local team will be made by Jenkins, which is isolated in Region 1-5A and will make a 580-mile round trip to play at Carrollton.

Playing in Region 3-3A has its travel advantages with three local stadiums hosting games, while Calvary Day and Savannah Country Day have stadiums on campus. Savannah Christian hosts games at Pooler Stadium.

Islands, which has a stadium across the street from its campus, is set to travel the least miles of local schools this season with trips set for 242 miles.

Here's a list of Savannah teams and the miles they will travel in the 2023 regular season.
