Signs Your Air Conditioner
Needs Repairs
Don’t get stuck in the heat during the hottest part of summer. Watch for these signs that can indicate you need AC repairs:
INSUFFICIENT AIRFLOW:
If your house is not cooling to the desired temperature it can signal restricted airflow due to dirty air ducts or clogged filters.
LEAKS:
If you notice moisture coming from your unit, it can indicate a leak that needs to be inspected by a professional.
FOUL ODORS:
If you notice a musty or stale odor when your unit is running, it can signal you need repairs.
Ways You’re Causing Your
Air Conditioner to Malfunction
Did you know you could be contributing to your air conditioner’s issues? Some ways you could be causing it to malfunction are by:
SETTING THE THERMOSTAT TOO LOW:
Turning your thermostat setting too low can put more wear and tear on the unit. Also, it will not make your house cool off faster - it only makes it cool off longer.
SKIPPING ANNUAL PERFORMANCE MAINTENANCE:
Failing to have your system tuned up by a professional every year can cause small issues to go undetected, and lead to larger problems later.
FAILING TO UPDATE YOUR THERMOSTAT:
Using an outdated thermostat, or not replacing a malfunctioning device, can prevent your unit from running properly.

What To Expect During an Air Conditioner Tune-up?

Check the refrigerant to ensure the right amount is in the system.
Examine the air ducts for debris or leaks.
Check the electric control sequence and make sure the cooling and heating sequences are not operating at the same time.
Apply oil to the motors as needed.
Ensure all components are functioning as expected.
Check for leaks.
Inspect the evaporator coil to ensure it’s functioning properly and that the right amount of air is flowing through it.
