Spring in Kansas: One Day Heat, One Day AC
If you're a homeowner in Olathe or Johnson County, you know how unpredictable spring weather can be. One day it's 50 degrees, the next it's 86 — and you're constantly switching between heat and air conditioning.
This seasonal transition can put stress on your HVAC system — especially if your equipment hasn’t been serviced recently.
At Jack Harrison Heating & Air Conditioning, spring is one of the busiest seasons because homeowners start noticing issues after months of winter use.
Is It OK to Switch Between Heat and AC?
Yes — but there are a few things to keep in mind:
Wait Before Switching
If you switch from heat to AC, it's best to:
- Turn the system off
- Wait 5–10 minutes
- Then switch modes
This helps protect your compressor and system components.
Common Spring HVAC Problems We See
During Kansas spring weather swings, we commonly see:
- AC not turning on after winter
- Weak airflow
- Strange smells when switching modes
- Uneven temperatures in the home
- Thermostat issues
Many of these problems are easily preventable with a spring AC tune-up and a simple filter change.

- Ensure your AC works before summer heat
