You don’t want to be left without AC this summer which is why you should keep an air conditioner repair company such as All Seasons Heating & Cooling saved in your contact list so you know who to call if you need a repair done here in Geneva. Here are some of the most common air conditioning problems you could run into this summer to help you recognize when you may need to call for services.
- No AC at all: We started with the worst and most common one, your AC unit stops working completely – no air blowing, no motor running, nada. This could be caused by something as simple as your thermostat needing new batteries, resetting the AC’s circuit breaker, or it could be something more serious like needing a completely new unit. Troubleshoot the easy solutions first and if those still don’t solve the problem, call in the experts for help.
- Warm or hot air coming from the vents: If your AC is set to 68 degrees but there is only warm or hot air blowing from it, the first thing you need to check is your air filter. Old air filters that have become too clogged can cause the AC coils to freeze. This causes air to get stuck preventing it to cool down throughout your home. If replacing the filter doesn’t solve the problem, check the refrigerant. You will need to check the larger of the two copper lines that run into your AC unit’s condenser to see if it is moist and cold to the touch. If it is, then your refrigerant level is good, but if it’s not, then you need more. This part of the job should be left to the professionals, so be sure to call an experienced team to help resolve this issue.
- Water leaking from unit: Air conditioning units will naturally have a certain amount of fluid and moisture condensation, but if the build-up is so much that it’s causing leaks, then there is a problem. Oftentimes it just means that the condensate line has become clogged so there is nowhere else for the excess water to drain. Lines can become clogged with mold, dirt, or debris which can cause the water in the line to back up into your home. You will need to refer to the manufacturer’s instructions to safely clear out the line, or, to ensure the best results, call in a professional.
