Common Issues

Problems with the Fans

There are two fans in your air conditioning system, and both play a major role in the air flow and heat release/cooling process of your system. Common problems that can develop with your fans are issues with the fan blades, worn or broken fan belts, electrical issues or problems with the fan motor.

Refrigerant Leaks

Refrigerant is the chemical that facilitates the heat transfer process in your air conditioning system. Every air conditioner requires an exact amount of refrigerant in order to work. When a leak develops, the level of the refrigerant is reduced. This imbalance can lead to a lack of cooling or icing on the evaporator coils. Refrigerant leaks must be repaired by a trained and certified technician, and they will become worse over time if left unattended.

Issues with the Compressor

The compressor is the component of your AC system that pressurizes the refrigerant so that heat can be released. Compressors work under great stress, so it isn’t unusual for a compressor to experience motor problems, overheating and lockup. Many of these problems can be avoided with annual maintenance.

Problems with your air conditioner will only become worse over time, so if you are seeing signs that there’s an issue with your AC, call our trained specialists today!
