Your AC could be running poorly, costing more, and making strange noises that all signal to it leaking refrigerant. There’s a very high chance that this is the culprit behind your dissatisfaction with your AC.
Clogged Air Filter
Your air filter needs to be changed out every 1-3 months depending on how heavily you use your AC. The longer you wait between air filter changes, the more likely you are to experience problems that come from this. Your system could start overheating or consuming more energy as it struggles to get fresh air from the intake duct.
Electrical Problem
Our air conditioners consume a lot of energy, which is why they need to be appropriately set up to our home electrical systems. If you’re noticing that the system keeps shutting off, it’s making a buzzing noise, or it’s constantly tripping the circuits in your home, then you need to call for professional help. You’re likely dealing with an electrical issue.
Efficiency Issues
Your AC should be able to cool your home at a reasonable cost. If you’re seeing an uptick in your monthly energy bills, then there could be something wrong that needs to be repaired. Don’t let this high cost for comfort be the new normal!
Lukewarm Air
On a hot day, if you’re putting your hand near the air vents and only feeling lukewarm or even warm air, then something is clearly wrong. A variety of problems could be causing this, but all of these issues need to be addressed by a professional.
Short Cycling
Short cycling is when your air conditioner runs in short, frequent cycles that cause it to inadequately cool your home and suck up too much energy. If you’re noticing this, then you need to call for help. This is a serious problem that could lead to an early breakdown if you’re not careful.
