Both the indoor and outdoor cooling units and the thermostat need access to electricity to run.
If your thermostat isn’t set correctly, the air conditioner will not know to turn on.
It may feel like your air conditioner isn’t producing cool air if room vents are shut.
If the air filter is dirty and clogged, cool air has a difficult time moving through the cooling system.
Obstructions along the outdoor heat pump or air conditioning condenser unit can inhibit the cooling process.
A clogged condensate drain can stop your air conditioner from cooling the home’s air.
Some cooling equipment models will not run if an access panel is loose or missing.
The evaporator coil within the indoor cooling unit can freeze up, causing the air conditioner to stop and no longer make cool air for the house.
If you have performed these troubleshooting steps yet your air conditioner still does not run or produce enough cool air for your home, it’s time to schedule cooling repairs. Contact Buckeye Heating, Cooling & Plumbing to request an appointment for cooling service or ask for emergency cooling repairs.
The most common problems an air conditioner will experience are: AC doesn’t turn on, not blowing cold air, AC leaks, making loud noises, and your AC freezing up outside the unit.
There are many issues that could prevent your air conditioner from working correctly. One issue could be that you have a blocked or clogged condenser coil.
Most air conditioning units will last 12-20 years, depending on the type of system and how well-kept the system is.
It would be recommended to increase the set point of your thermostat when you are away. We do not recommend turning off the unit entirely as it will take a significant amount of energy to bring the home back down to temperature and can introduce problems for appliances and furniture if the temperature and humidity get too high.
Dirty filters will cause poor cold air flow in your air conditioning system. This can cause more severe problems, such as your air conditioner freezing up and becoming inoperable.
Usually, this happens because the compressor/outside unit has a problem, or your AC is low on refrigerant.
Loud noises from your air conditioner can indicate that something is seriously wrong with your unit. The first thing you should do is turn off the system and call a professional to diagnose the problem.
Before resetting your air conditioner you should turn off your AC at your thermostat. Once the unit is turned off, go to your circuit breaker box and reset the air conditioner from there. Wait 30 minutes, then turn the thermostat for your AC back to the cool setting.
Signs that your AC unit is broken include uncomfortable temperatures inside your home, vents pumping warm air, and loud noises coming from your air conditioner.
For your air conditioning unit to run efficiently and effectively, regular maintenance is required. Preventative maintenance keeps your unit healthy and helps prevent larger issues from happening.
It’s recommended that you should clean your air conditioning coils at least once a year.
More advanced systems may run longer but at a lower energy level to increase the efficiency of the unit and the comfort of the home.
SEER ratings measure the maximum energy efficiency over the range of expected seasonal temperatures. In general, good SEER values range from 14 to 16 for air conditioning units. These are the most common. There are more efficient units available to decrease the energy costs of your home.
