Signs Your AC Needs Repair

The most obvious sign that your AC needs repair is that it won’t turn on. Other issues may be more challenging to determine, and you will need a qualified technician to repair it. Some things seem only like minor annoyances but are, in fact, an indication of a deeper problem. 

Common Signs That You Need AC Repair:

• The unit won’t turn on or off
• Reduced airflow
• Hot or warm air blowing out of the vents
• Unpleasant odors from the unit
• Loud, unusual noises from the AC
• Thermostat reading inaccuracies
• Unexplained energy bill spikes
• Signs of water or Freon leaks

If you find your unit needs to be repaired often or it’s more than ten years old, it may be time to consider replacing your air conditioning unit. Our expert technicians will provide honest recommendations for the best way to proceed. Our policy is to show you options to help you make the best decision for your family.

Common Air Conditioner Problems

Air conditioners that aren’t putting out cold air make life more stressful. That’s why it’s important to know when something warrants inspection. 

Here are some common issues that may require AC repair: 

• Lack of regular AC maintenance
• Inadequate cleaning
• Clogged filters and ducts
• Insufficient refrigerant levels
• Poor AC installation
• Inappropriate AC size or ducting for your space

These issues can lead to inadequate performance, inefficient energy consumption, and short air conditioning unit lifespans. Sometimes it’s due to a suboptimal design or poorly constructed component of a budget unit. Faulty wiring in a unit’s control system can lead to faulty operations, short-cycling, or even total unit failure. 

Natural causes, such as extreme weather like flooding or lightning strikes, can cause damage to air conditioning units as well. Regular maintenance and service are recommended to ensure your air conditioning unit is prepared for the summer season, and you won’t experience unexpected shutdowns and repairs. 

Does Your AC Have a Freon Leak?

Air conditioners don’t actually “use up” Freon or other refrigerants. It is a medium that transfers heat from inside your home to outside. If your Freon level has dropped, it is only because of a leak somewhere. This is a serious issue that only trained professionals can handle. Leaks can lead to ice forming around the evaporator, causing dramatic reductions in energy efficiency and increased energy consumption. Freon can also emit potentially harmful fumes, so it’s important to contact an AC expert at the first sign of a leak or frozen evaporator. 

Anderson Plumbing, Heating & Air provides Freon leak detection and repair in San Diego, California, and the surrounding areas. Our equipment will lead us to the leak, which we can address with the necessary repairs. We’ll recharge your Freon and get your AC back up and running at its top efficiency again.
