Unexplainably high energy bills — Larnaca, Larnaca
A sudden spike in energy bills without a change in habits usually points to an inefficient HVAC system, poor insulation, or an electrical issue. Common culprits include a dirty furnace filter, refrigerant leak, faulty thermostat, aging water heater, or air leaks around windows and doors. An HVAC technician can perform an efficiency audit, clean or tune up your system, seal ductwork, and recommend upgrades that pay for themselves in lower bills.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in Larnaca
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.
