Ductwork rattling or popping — Larnaca, Larnaca
Rattling, popping, or booming sounds from HVAC ductwork are usually caused by thin sheet metal expanding and contracting as heated or cooled air passes through. While not always dangerous, the noise can indicate undersized ducts, loose connections, a clogged filter creating excessive pressure, or poor duct support. An HVAC technician can identify the cause, reinforce or resize problem sections, and seal joints to eliminate noise and improve efficiency.

Air conditioning is essential in Larnaca summers (32–38°C with high humidity), and AC failures during July–August are emergencies for short-term rental hosts serving airport traffic. Combined coastal salt-air and salt-lake humidity accelerate outdoor condenser corrosion more than a single exposure would. F-Gas certified technicians (EU regulation) are required for refrigerant handling.
