Signs You Need AC Repairs

Don't wait until your air conditioner completely breaks down to call for help. Being aware of these common signs can save you from more extensive and costly repairs down the line:

Warm Air Blowing

This is often the most obvious sign. If your AC is running but the air coming from your vents isn't cool, it could indicate a refrigerant leak, compressor issue, or a problem with your thermostat.

Strange Noises

Your AC unit should operate relatively quietly. Grinding, squealing, banging, or clanking noises often point to worn-out parts, a failing motor, or loose components within the system.

Unpleasant Odors

Musty smells can indicate mold or mildew growth in your ductwork or evaporator coil, while a burning smell could signal an electrical issue.

Leaking Water

Puddles of water around your indoor unit can be a sign of a clogged condensate drain line, a frozen evaporator coil, or a cracked drain pan.

Increased Energy Bills

If your electricity bills are skyrocketing without a significant change in usage, your AC unit might be working harder than it should due to inefficiencies or underlying problems.

Frequent Cycling

An AC system that constantly turns on and off (short cycling) is not operating efficiently and can lead to premature wear and tear on components. This could be due to an oversized unit, a faulty thermostat, or low refrigerant.

Thermostat Inaccuracies

If your home isn't reaching the temperature set on your thermostat, or if the thermostat itself isn't responding, it could indicate a sensor issue, wiring problem, or a malfunctioning thermostat.

Weak Airflow

Reduced airflow from your vents can mean a clogged air filter, issues with your fan motor, or ductwork problems that are restricting air distribution.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I know if I need AC repair?

    There are several common warning signs that your AC system may need professional repair. Call us if you notice any of the following:


    • Warm air blowing from your vents: This is a clear sign that your system isn't cooling properly. It could be due to a refrigerant leak, a failing compressor, or a thermostat issue.
    • Strange noises: While some noise is normal, grinding, squealing, banging, or rattling sounds often indicate worn-out parts, a failing motor, or loose components.
    • Unpleasant odors: Musty smells can signal mold or mildew growth in your ductwork or evaporator coil, while a burning smell could indicate an electrical problem.
    • Leaking water: Puddles of water around your indoor unit are a sign of a clogged condensate drain line, a frozen evaporator coil, or a cracked drain pan.
    • Increased energy bills: If your utility bills are suddenly much higher than usual without a change in usage, your AC may be working inefficiently.
    • Weak or inconsistent airflow: If air is not flowing strongly from your vents or if some rooms are hot while others are cool, it could be due to a clogged filter, a fan motor issue, or problems with your ductwork.
    • Frequent cycling: An AC unit that constantly turns on and off in short bursts is not operating efficiently and can lead to premature wear and tear.

  • My AC is not blowing cold air. What should I do before calling for service?

    Before you call for a technician, you can try a few simple troubleshooting steps:


    • Check your thermostat: Ensure it is set to "Cool" and the temperature is set low enough to trigger the system.
    • Inspect your air filter: A clogged, dirty filter is one of the most common causes of AC problems. Replace it if it's dirty.
    • Check your circuit breaker: The breaker for your AC unit may have tripped. Reset it by flipping it off and then on again. If it trips immediately, do not try to reset it again and call a professional.

    If these steps don't solve the problem, it's time to call us.
