3 Most Common AC Repair Symptoms and Problems

There are several different problems we run into often when it comes to AC repair needs; many of these are easy fixes—but others aren’t. These are three of the most common problems we encounter, as well as what to keep an eye out for.

• Freon Leak:  In order for your AC system to run properly it requires freon. To be effective, your  air conditioning system must cool, dehumidify, and circulate the air within your home. A freon leak can cause major problems if not caught quickly.  If you notice any unusual liquid around your ac unit coupled with a drop in efficiency, call us right away to get the leak repaired, and your freon filled.
• Frozen coils: Dusty, dirty coils, or blocked airflow can all create frozen coils in your AC unit, this can cause your system to freeze up. If your unit isn’t running normally, you should visually inspect the area around your ac unit or (after the unit is turned off) check your evaporator coils for ice. If you see ice around or in your unit, turn it off immediately and give us a call for air conditioning repair.
• Sensor problems:  Sensors in your air conditioning unit tell your system when to turn off and on. These sensors can easily get moved out of position, become dirty or be obstructed if not checked regularly. These things can cause in your ac unit running constantly or starting and stopping frequently.  If you’re experiencing any of these issues, call our heating & air conditioning experts so we can take care of it for you.​

​If you’ve had your air conditioner for quite some time, and you notice your utility bill getting bigger, it’s probably time to consider a new air conditioner. The life expectancy of an air conditioner is between 10 and 15 years. If your ac unit is getting up there, it probably makes more sense to get a new more energy-efficient air conditioner. If you’d like to speak with one of our ac specialists to discuss a new air conditioner, to see what options are available for your home, please call our heating & air conditioning company for your free, no-obligation estimate today.

Getting the Most from your AC Unit

Scheduled maintenance and service are the keys to improving the life of your air conditioning unit. Not having regularly scheduled service on your ac unit means more wear and tear on the parts that need periodic attention, resulting in the higher probability of your air conditioner needing repairs, having a shorter lifespan, and higher utility costs. Call us today at 843-970-3232 to ask about our maintenance plans.

FREQUENTLY ASKED AIR CONDITIONING QUESTIONS

What should a regular maintenance tune-up include? 

An air conditioner maintenance call should include the following:

• To increase the efficiency of your air conditioner, the tune-up should include a thorough condenser coil cleaning. Clean coils reduce the wear and tear on your ac unit, and directly impact the cost of running your air conditioner.In an effort to maintain your air conditioners peak performance, the ac technician will make sure all moving parts are properly lubricated to eliminate wear due to undo friction. The technician will also check the coolant levels to make sure they are at the correct level.We will calibrate your thermostat to ensure it is operating properly. Your duct work will be inspected for possible energy leaks.
• Inspecting and if necessary, tightening of all the electrical connections to ensure safe operation of your ac system. We will evaluate the condition of the blower belt and analyze the blower motor to make sure it is operating efficiently.
• These are just a few of the basic checks that will be performed by our HVAC technician during a regular maintenance tune-up of your ac unit. 

We strongly recommend that you have your HVAC system serviced by a Summerville HVAC professional two times a year, ideally during spring and autumn seasons.

How often should I replace my air conditioner filters? & Why is it so important to replace my AC filters?

It depends on the filters your ac system manufacturer recommends. Some ac systems use disposable filters, if yours does, it is best to replace those per the ac manufactures recommendations. Some filters are good for 90 days, some for only 30 days. Add a reminder to your phone, or write it down on a wall calendar so you don’t forget.  Proper filter changing is the number one thing you can do to help your ac unit do to keep it running efficiently. 

How often should maintenance be done on my Air Conditioning System?

You should have regularly scheduled maintenance completed twice a year on your HVAC system in Summerville, SC. We recommend the Spring and Fall. Regularly scheduled maintenance on your air conditioner will ensure that your summer will be easy breezy, and having your heating system serviced in the Fall ensure a warm & cozy winter for you and your family. Scheduled maintenance of your heating & air conditioning system will address any issues that may arise, allowing you to get it fixed before it progresses to a potentially costly repair.

Is there anything I should check before calling an HVAC Technician?

You should check to make sure that the electrical breaker to ac unit is on, and not tripped. Double check the thermostat, and check to see if the ac unit is actually on. (Seems silly but it happens!)

How do I know if my heating and cooling system is working properly?
