Why Isn’t My Air Conditioner Working?
At Aire Serv, accurately diagnosing HVAC equipment issues is one of our specialties. Some of the most common reasons our service professionals are called for A/C unit repairs include the following:
- There’s no power to the air conditioner due to an electrical problem, such as faulty wiring, a tripped circuit breaker, or an automatic shutoff from overheating.
- If you hear a squealing sound, the fan belt might need to be replaced to prevent it from snapping and costing you more money in repairs.
- If you hear a hissing sound, you’re likely dealing with a refrigerant leak, which decreases the efficiency of your unit and poses a threat to the environment.
- Several things, including constant operation, low refrigerant levels, and poor circulation, can cause a frozen evaporator coil. Feeling warm air through your vents is a sign of frozen evaporator coils.
- If your fan motor is defective, air can't circulate properly throughout your home or commercial business. Our service professionals could possibly repair the motor, but it may need to be replaced.
- When an A/C unit compressor isn’t working properly, the air coming through the registers will feel warm. The compressor is one of the more expensive parts of an air conditioner, so it's best to discuss repair and replacement options with your Aire Serv service professional.
- If the condensate drain is clogged by algae, dirt, insect nests, or other debris, it can cause water damage and result in your A/C unit not working efficiently. Our service professionals can resolve the clog and take steps to ensure it stays free of clogs in the future.
How Much Do Air Conditioner Repairs Cost?
We can only tell you how much your repairs or replacement will cost once our service professionals inspect the unit in person. The cost of your air conditioner repair service will depend on a few factors, including:
- The type of A/C unit you have
- The issue you’re experiencing
- Whether your equipment is under warranty
- Whether your unit can be repaired or must be replaced
Do I Need Air Conditioner Replacement Services?
Air conditioner repairs are typically far less expensive than replacements. Our service professionals are happy to answer all your questions to help you make the best decision for your specific needs. If you’re curious about others’ experiences with Aire Serv’s HVAC replacement services, you can check out our customer testimonials to see what people say about our work. When recommending that customers repair or replace their AC units, we consider three key factors:
- If your unit is more than ten years old and causing you problems, replacing it might be a better option than repeatedly repairing it.
- Would a new unit be a better investment for you and your family in the long run? Our HVAC service professionals can calculate your return on investment to help you decide whether an energy-efficient upgrade would be a better choice than repairs.
- If replacing your unit with a more efficient one that consumes less electricity could save you money on monthly energy bills, replacing your current unit might be the right choice.
