Common Air Conditioner Issues
Air conditioners may experience various issues throughout their operating lives. Some only need routine maintenance, while others may require more complex or involved repairs. See these common AC issues that many Naperville homeowners face.
Faulty thermostat
Faulty thermostats may lead to inaccurate temperature readings, causing your AC to turn on and off at the wrong times or failing to function altogether. Replacing dead batteries, resetting programming, or calibrating a faulty thermostat may resolve certain problems. In other cases, your technician may inspect temperature sensors, wiring, and other components for damage that may prevent proper communication with the rest of the system.
Refrigerant leaks
Refrigerants are an important part of the heat exchange process, circulating through the evaporator coils to absorb heat and release it at the condenser coils. Low charge or leaks prevent your AC from properly cooling air, sometimes resulting in warm air blowing from your vents, strain on the compressor and various components, and system failure if left unaddressed. A technician can inspect your refrigerant lines and identify and resolve the underlying cause.
Frozen evaporator coils
Evaporator coils may freeze due to restricted airflow, low refrigerant charge, and associated issues. Frozen coils prevent refrigerants from properly absorbing heat, forcing your system to work harder, strain its components, and consume more energy to cool your home.
Clogged air filter
Air filters trap dust, debris, and other particles and contaminants, and they require regular replacement to prevent buildup and blockages. Clogged air filters restrict airflow and cooling efficiency, leading to reduced cooling and damage to other components.
Replacing filters may resolve other concerns relating to poor airflow, such as uneven temperature distribution, high energy bills, frozen components, and unpleasant odors. If poor airflow persists, your technician may inspect your ductwork, vents, and blower fan motor.
