Whether your unit is on its last leg 🥵🥶 or just acting up, this conversation will help you weigh the real costs — and know when it's time to call in a pro for a second opinion. ✅

✅ If your system is 10 years or older, OR✅ The repair bill is running over $1,000...

☀️ Is your AC running non-stop and you're starting to panic? Before you pick up the phone — listen to this episode first!
We're back with Nathan Shafer, owner of Shafer Heating and Cooling, and this time he's busting one of the most common myths in home comfort: that a continuously running air conditioner is a sign something is wrong. 🚫❌
🏎️ Think of it like a car cruising down the highway — running steadily at speed actually creates less wear and tear than constantly stopping and starting. Your AC works the same way! Nonstop operation during peak summer heat isn't just normal — it can actually be easier on your system than repeated on-off cycles.
Nathan explains why Southern Ohio's summer design temperatures mean a properly sized, well-maintained system will run most of the time during the hottest days of the year — and why that's exactly what it's supposed to do. ✅
🛠️ This episode also covers:
Why proper system sizing is everything — too big can be just as problematic as too small
How a clean filter can be the difference between a system that cruises and one that struggles 😤
Why regular maintenance before peak season is your best defense against breakdowns when you need your AC most 🔧
How to tell the difference between a system that's working hard vs. one that's actually struggling ⚠️
If you want to stop worrying every time your AC kicks on and never seems to kick off — this is the episode for you! Tune in now. 🎧

🔥 Got HVAC questions? We've got answers! This week, we're sitting down with Nathan Shafer, owner of Shafer Heating and Cooling in Hillsboro, Ohio — a trusted local expert who knows what it takes to keep your home comfortable year-round.
From diagnosing that mysterious noise your furnace has been making all winter 🥶 to knowing when it's time to replace vs. repair your AC unit ☀️, Nathan breaks it all down in a way that actually makes sense.
🌡️ Ever wonder why your AC seems to run non-stop during a July heat wave — even when it's working perfectly? This episode dives into design temperatures and explains why, in many regions, a 90°F design temperature means your system may run continuously when summer heat peaks. Nathan also covers how sun exposure, shade, and everyday actions like opening doors can shift your indoor temps — and why even a correctly sized, properly functioning system can fall a degree or two behind when conditions push past the design threshold.
Whether you're a homeowner trying to understand your system or you're dealing with an urgent issue and don't know who to call — this is the episode for you. 💡 Learn what separates a quality HVAC contractor from the rest, what questions to ask before hiring anyone, and how Shafer Heating and Cooling has built a reputation for honest, reliable service in Highland County and beyond.

❄️ How Your Air Conditioner Really Keeps You Comfortable! 💧🏡
Welcome to the Check A Pro Radio Show! 🎙️ Host Jim Klauck (Check A Pro Joe) sits down with HVAC expert Nathan Shafer from Shafer Heating & Cooling to explain one of the most misunderstood jobs of your home's air conditioning system.
It's not just about cooling the air—your AC is also your home's dehumidifier. Nathan explains how the outdoor condenser removes heat while the indoor system pulls excess moisture from the air, sending it safely down the condensate drain. 🌡️💦
You'll also learn why humidity rises when your AC isn't running and what it means if your outdoor unit is blowing cool air instead of hot air—a warning sign that your system may not be removing heat and moisture efficiently. ⚠️
If you want to stay comfortable, protect your home from excess humidity, and understand how your HVAC system really works, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
🎙️ If your HVAC system isn't performing the way it should, the problem might not be your unit — it might be what's behind your walls.

🌡️💧 Beat the Heat: How Humidity is Secretly Making Your Home Less Comfortable
Is your home feeling hotter than your thermostat says it should? The answer might be in the air — literally. In this episode, host Jim Klauck sits down with Nathan Shafer of Shafer Heating and Cooling to unpack the hidden role humidity plays in your summer comfort.
Nathan breaks down a simple but eye-opening rule of thumb: every 5% change in relative humidity feels like a 1-degree temperature difference. That means a humid home can feel significantly warmer than your thermostat actually reads — and your AC is working overtime for nothing.
🏠 Learn why keeping your indoor humidity in the 45–50% sweet spot this summer is one of the easiest ways to feel cooler, sleep better, and stop sweating through your energy bills. Whether you're battling a sticky house or just can't seem to get comfortable no matter how low you crank the AC, this episode has the answers.

Jim Klauck welcomes special guest Nathan Shafer of Shafer Heating and Cooling to discuss a common misconception about air conditioning systems: Bigger isn't always better! ❄️🏠
Did you know that an oversized air conditioner can actually make your home less comfortable? 🤔 Oversized AC systems tend to short-cycle—turning on and off too quickly—which prevents them from removing enough humidity from the air. The result? Your home may feel cool, but still damp, sticky, and uncomfortable.
Nathan explains why properly sizing your air conditioning system is critical for both comfort and health. ✅ A correctly sized unit runs longer, maintains the right temperature, and effectively reduces indoor humidity levels, creating a healthier and more comfortable living environment.
Don't miss this informative episode and learn how the right AC system can make all the difference in your home comfort! 🌡️💧🏡

💧🌡️ Why Is My House So Sticky? The Truth About Humidity and Your HVAC System
If you live in southwest Ohio, you already know the feeling — it's not just hot, it's heavy. That thick, sticky air that makes even a mild summer day feel miserable. But here's what most homeowners don't realize: your air conditioner isn't just cooling your home, it's supposed to be managing that moisture too.
On this episode of Check a Pro Radio Show, HVAC expert Nathan Schafer of Shafer Heating and Cooling out of Hillsboro, OH breaks down exactly why humidity is such a challenge in southwest Ohio — and what you can do about it.
Nathan explains the science behind how your AC removes moisture from the air, why a properly sized system matters more than most people think, and how today's tighter, more energy-efficient homes can actually trap humidity inside if fresh-air ventilation isn't part of the equation.
And when your AC alone isn't keeping up? That's where whole-home dehumidifiers come in — working alongside your existing system to keep indoor humidity consistently below 45–50%, the sweet spot for comfort, healthier air quality, and protecting your furniture, flooring, and woodwork from the slow damage moisture causes over time. 🪵🏠
Here's what Nathan covers: ✅ Why southwest Ohio humidity hits differently — and why it matters indoors ✅ How your air conditioner removes moisture, not just heat ✅ The hidden cost of an improperly sized HVAC system ✅ Why airtight homes need intentional fresh-air ventilation ✅ How whole-home dehumidifiers complement your AC for year-round comfort ✅ The 45–50% humidity target and why it protects your home and your health
🎙️ Cooling your home is only half the battle — Nathan Shafer explains how to win the humidity fight too.

❄️🔧 Your HVAC System Is Only as Good as Your Ducts — Here's How to Fix Them Without the Demolition
You spent good money on that HVAC system. But if your ducts are leaking, you're basically air-conditioning your attic, your walls, and your crawlspace — not your home.
In this episode, I sit down with Nathan Shafer of Shafer Heating and Cooling out of Hillsboro, OH, to talk about one of the most overlooked — and most fixable — efficiency killers in any home: leaky ductwork.
Whether your system is running at 8–13 SEER or you've recently upgraded to something newer, duct leakage is silently robbing you of comfort and cash every single month. 💸
The good news? You don't need to tear out a single wall or ceiling to fix it. Nathan breaks down modern, non-destructive duct sealing methods that go far beyond the old mastic-and-tape approach — reaching ducts hidden deep inside walls and above drywall ceilings without the mess, the cost, or the chaos of a major renovation.
🏠💨 Here's what we cover: ✅ Why duct leakage is so common — even in newer homes ✅ How traditional mastic and tape repairs fall short ✅ What modern duct sealing technology actually looks like ✅ How to protect your HVAC investment for the long haul ✅ What homeowners should ask before their next service call
🎙️ If your HVAC system isn't performing the way it should, the problem might not be your unit — it might be what's behind your walls.
