AC Repair When Your Air Conditioner Stops Keeping Up
An air conditioner in trouble usually gives signs before it stops completely. The AC may be running but not cooling, the vents may push weak airflow or warm air, or the outdoor unit may start grinding, buzzing or rattling in a way it didn't last summer. Some systems cycle on and off every few minutes; others leave one room cold and the next one stuffy, with uneven temperatures from floor to floor.
Each of those symptoms can have several causes, from airflow restrictions and electrical components to refrigerant-circuit issues, thermostat settings or a worn blower motor. The first step is narrowing that down rather than guessing. Once the likely cause is found, you'll hear what was observed and which repair options are available, so you can decide how to proceed.
Notice ice on the refrigerant lines, a burning smell or a breaker that keeps tripping? Turn the system off and call before running it again.
