Why Is My AC Not Working?
When your broken air conditioner doesn’t keep your home cool, don’t sweat. We are here to diagnose the issues and find the best air conditioner repair. Some of the most common reasons your AC isn’t working include the following:
No Power
If your air conditioner doesn’t have any power, we inspect for tripped breakers, faulty wiring, or an overheated system. We can effectively repair the writing, reset your circuit breaker, and inspect for anything blocking airflow to your unit.
Worn Fan Belt
Squealing sounds coming from your AC unit often indicate a worn-out fan belt. If your AC fan belt snaps before replacement, the repair costs are typically significantly higher. Therefore, it’s important to inspect for worn fan belts.
Refrigerant Leak
A refrigerant leak often shows itself with a hissing sound. Refrigerant leaks decrease your unit’s efficiency and are bad for the environment. We will replace the tubing and recharge your AC unit.
Defective Fan Motor
You may need an AC fan motor replacement if the fan is preventing proper air circulation. We will inspect the fan motor and determine if it can be repaired.
Clogged Condensate Drain
Dirt and debris can easily clog your condensate drain. Our service professionals can flush your system and apply an algaecide to help with this issue.
Frozen Evaporator Coil
Evaporator coils can freeze for multiple reasons, leaving your air supply registers warm. Turn off your AC unit if an evaporator is frozen and contact our team to make the proper repairs.
Defective Compressor
When the air still feels despite your running AC unit, you may have a defective compressor. A compressor is one of the AC’s most expensive components, so we will work with you to determine if a repair or replacement is the most cost-effective choice.
AC Repair vs. Replacement
We understand most homeowners believe it’s more cost-effective to repair your air conditioning unit instead of replacing it. We will consider multiple factors when helping you determine if it’s better to repair or replace your air conditioner unit, including:
Age
If your AC unit is over ten years old and facing multiple repairs, we typically recommend a new air conditioner unit.
Investment Cost
New air conditioner models are often more durable and reliable than older models.
Utility Rates
We install energy-efficient, state-of-the-art, AC units that help save you money on energy bills.
