Issues with the air conditioner always seem to crop up at the worst possible moment. On exceptionally hot days, a broken or outdated air conditioner may fail to keep up. Maintaining a well-functioning air conditioner is simple and will ensure the comfort and health of your family. By catching problems with your air conditioner early on, you can save money on expensive repairs down the road. Simply put, you should learn to recognize the seven warning signals that indicate it’s time to opt for air conditioning services.

• Your Energy Bills Have Gone Up Drastically

Any of the issues mentioned below with your HVAC system will force it to work harder and for longer than usual to meet the required level of comfort. Power prices are expected to rise as a result of this. Your air conditioner may need maintenance, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on the cost of its electricity usage.

• Your Air Conditioner Is Not Cooling Enough

Have you found that while some rooms in your house cool off quickly when you turn on the AC, others remain warm? Buildup of material on the vents or a blockage in the ducting could be to blame. If the problem is only superficial, cleaning the vents might be enough; if it goes deeper, though, you may require professional assistance.

• Your Air Conditioner Is Leaking Water

In order to function, your air conditioner requires the use of refrigerant, which might cause condensation. Still, you don’t want either of these fluids pooling around your house or leaking inside. The presence of standing water or an active leak surrounding your air conditioner is a serious indication that it is not functioning correctly. Our AC repair specialists should be contacted immediately. A leak can cause immediate damage to your house and possibly cause structural damage over time.

• Your Home Is Getting More Humid

Outdoor conditions will likely be sticky during the spring and summer. Of course, that doesn’t mean you’re eager to stay inside in conditions of excessive humidity. Your HVAC system needs to automatically control the humidity in your home.

Repairing your air conditioner will be necessary if it fails to maintain an acceptable relative humidity. We’ll quickly determine whether a simple re-calibration of your air conditioner is all that’s needed or whether a whole-house dehumidifier would be more appropriate.

• Your Air Conditioner Is Making Noise

The air conditioner will make some noise as it starts and stops operating. Extremely loud or otherwise out-of-the-ordinary noises during system operation are not to be expected. A rattling noise, for instance, could indicate that an internal component is loose and moving around. If your fan belt is making a squeaking noise, it may need to be replaced. The sound of clicking indicates potential electrical problems.

Is there a high-pitched whistling sound? Please power down your system. Indicating a potentially life-threatening buildup of excessive pressure inside your unit. In case of an immediate air conditioning emergency, dial the number of an emergency service.

• The Airflow From Your Air Conditioner Is Too Low

Weak air flow is analogous to the problem of very warm air. When you switch on your air conditioner, you may feel a slight chill, but the airflow is so feeble that it’s unable to adequately cool the entire area. This is usually a sign of a failing compressor, but it could also indicate a problem with the ductwork. Since the nature of the problem is unknown, a tune-up by a professional HVAC specialist is recommended. Professionals have the training and experience to spot potential issues before they balloon into catastrophe.
