AC Unit Troubleshooting

Are you experiencing issues with your AC unit? Before you call us try the following AC unit troubleshooting steps, you could save yourself the HVAC service call.

1. My AC won't turn on

Thermostat: Make sure that your thermostat is set to “cool” and the temperature is set lower than the current room temperature. You can also check the batteries in your thermostat to ensure they are not dead.
Power: Check to make sure that your AC unit is receiving power. Ensure that the circuit breaker is not tripped and the switch for your AC is turned on.
Dirty filters: If your air filters are clogged with dust and debris, your AC may shut off to prevent damage. Clean or replace your air filters to see if this resolves the issue.
Faulty capacitor: The capacitor is a device that provides energy to the motor that powers the compressor and fans. If the capacitor is faulty or dead, your AC unit may not turn on.

2. My AC freezing up

Dirty air filters: If the air filters in your AC unit are dirty or clogged, it can cause the evaporator coils to freeze up. This is because the restricted airflow causes the cold air to be trapped inside the unit, leading to the formation of ice on the coils.
Low refrigerant levels: Low refrigerant levels can cause the pressure in your AC unit to drop, which can cause the evaporator coils to freeze up.
Malfunctioning thermostats: If thermostats malfunction, they may continue to run the compressor even after the desired temperature has been reached. This, in turn, can cause the evaporator coils to freeze.
Faulty blower fans: If the blower fans in your AC unit are not functioning properly, it can cause cold air to be trapped inside the unit, leading to ice formation on the coils.
Blocked vents: Blocked vents can restrict the airflow to your AC unit, which can cause the evaporator coils to freeze up.

3. My AC is making weird noises

Loose parts: Over time, your AC unit may become loose or disconnected. Screws or bolts may become loose, causing the AC unit to shake and make weird noises.
Dirty evaporator coils: Dirt and dust accumulate on the evaporator coils over time. This can cause the AC unit to produce a hissing, bubbling or gurgling sound.
Faulty fan motor: The fan motor is responsible for helping circulate cool air throughout your home. If it is malfunctioning or has become loose, it can cause rattling or banging sounds.
Refrigerant leak: If your AC unit begins to make a hissing or whistling noise, this could indicate a refrigerant leak. This can cause your AC unit to stop working properly or not produce cool air.
Blocked ducts: Blocked or dirty air ducts restrict the airflow to and from your AC unit. This can cause a whistling or wheezing sound.

4. My AC is blowing warm air

Dirty air filters: Your AC unit may be blowing warm air if the air filters are dirty or clogged. When the filters become clogged, they restrict the airflow, causing the unit to work harder and less efficiently, which can lead to warm air coming through the vents.
Refrigerant leaks: Low refrigerant levels can cause warm air to blow out of your AC unit. If there is a leak in the refrigerant lines, it can cause the pressure in the system to drop, making it difficult to produce cool air.
Faulty compressor: The compressor is the heart of the AC system, and if it is not functioning correctly, it can cause warm air to blow out of the unit.
Faulty thermostats: If the thermostat is not working correctly, it may not be sending the signal to the AC unit to produce cool air.
Dirty condenser coils: Dirty condenser coils can also cause warm air to blow from the AC unit. The coils should be cleaned periodically to ensure proper airflow and cooling.
