Why Is My AC Not Working?

The most common reasons our technicians are called for professional residential air conditioner repairs include:

  • No Power to the AC Unit – Having no power to your AC unit could be due to faulty wiring, a tripped breaker, or an overheated system that has shut itself off for safety reasons. Our technicians can fix the wiring, reset the circuit breaker, and make sure no vegetation is blocking airflow to the outdoor unit.
  • Fan Belt Is Worn Out – If you hear a squealing sound coming from your AC unit, it could be a sign the fan belt is wearing out. If the fan belt snaps before it’s replaced, the repairs could be significantly more expensive than simply replacing the worn belt.
  • AC Unit Has a Refrigerant Leak – If you hear a hissing sound it’s a common sign your refrigerant is leaking. It not only decreases the efficiency of the unit, but it’s bad for the environment. Our technicians can recharge your unit and replace the tubing to prevent future leaks.
  • Evaporator Coil Is Frozen – Several different things can cause a frozen evaporator coil, making the air leaving the supply registers feel warm. If you suspect a frozen evaporator coil, turn off the AC unit and call a technician to make the necessary repairs to prevent it from freezing in the future.
  • Fan Motor Is Defective – A defective fan motor can prevent proper air circulation throughout your home. Our technicians can either repair the motor or replace it if necessary.
  • Compressor Is Defective – If the fan on your AC unit is running, but the air feels warm, it’s most likely because the compressor isn’t working. The compressor is one of the most expensive components of an AC unit. Our technicians can discuss with you whether a replacement is more cost effective than repair in this instance.
  • Condensate Drain Is Clogged – Debris like insect nests and dirt can clog the condensate drain over time, potentially leading to water damage. Our technicians can flush the system and apply an algaecide to help prevent future clogs.

Should I Repair or Replace My Air Conditioner?

Homeowners often wonder whether it’s more cost effective to have their air conditioning unit repaired or replaced. Our team takes several key factors into consideration when helping you decide whether to repair or replace your unit, including:

  • Age – Is your AC unit more than ten years old? If you’re dealing with frequent repairs, it might be a better investment to replace it.
  • Investment Cost – Is a new system a better investment? Our newest air conditioner models are extremely durable and reliable, saving money on repairs in the long run. Our Aire Serv technicians can help you calculate your return on investment to determine if an upgrade is more cost effective than repair.
  • Utility Rates – Our state-of-the-art, energy-efficient units consume less electricity and could save you a lot on energy bills.

Preventative Maintenance for Your Air Conditioner

Performing maintenance on your air conditioning unit is the key to ensuring it operates efficiently for as long as possible. Once you have a new, energy-efficient air conditioning system, you want to keep it running smoothly by performing routine maintenance services. You can schedule regular inspections with our technicians, as well as take preventative steps to maintain your AC unit in between professional inspections.
