Air Conditioning Repair Specials

We rely heavily on our air conditioning systems to help us keep our homes and businesses comfortable indoors. Maintaining an energy efficient air conditioning unit will help you to achieve climate control and high air quality in your space. The best way to keep your AC system functioning properly is by staying on top of your annual air conditioning service. This can help you to avoid major breakdowns that require complex repair services.

According to Energy.Gov the most common air conditioning problems include:

• Refrigerant Leaks: If your air conditioner is low on refrigerant, either it was undercharged at installation or it leaks. If it leaks, simply adding refrigerant is not a solution. A trained technician should fix any leak, test the repair, and then charge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant.
• Inadequate Maintenance: If you allow filters and air conditioning coils to become dirty, the air conditioner will not work properly, and the compressor or fans are likely to fail prematurely.
• Electric Control Failure: The compressor and fan controls can wear out, especially when the air conditioner turns on and off frequently, as is common when a system is oversized.
• Sensor Problems: Room air conditioners feature a thermostat sensor, located behind the control panel, which measures the temperature of air coming into the evaporator coil. If the sensor is knocked out of position, the air conditioner could cycle constantly or behave erratically. The sensor should be near the coil but not touching it; adjust its position by carefully bending the wire that holds it in place.
• Drainage Problems: When it’s humid outside, check the condensate drain to make sure it isn’t clogged and is draining properly. Room air conditioners may not drain properly if not mounted level.
