Common Air Conditioning Problems We Diagnose and Repair

Understanding the various issues that can affect your cooling system helps you recognize when professional AC repair is necessary. Refrigerant leaks represent one of the most frequent problems we encounter, often manifesting as reduced cooling capacity, ice formation on the evaporator coil, or hissing sounds near the indoor unit. Our technicians use specialized leak detection equipment to pinpoint the exact location of refrigerant loss and perform proper repairs according to EPA regulations.

Electrical component failures account for another significant portion of air conditioning repair calls we receive. Capacitors, contactors, and relay switches endure tremendous stress during peak cooling season and can fail without warning. When these components malfunction, your system may fail to start, run continuously without cooling, or trip circuit breakers repeatedly. Our diagnostic process includes comprehensive electrical testing to identify failed components and ensure safe, reliable operation after repairs are completed.

Professional Maintenance Prevents Costly Central AC Repairs

Regular maintenance significantly reduces the likelihood of unexpected air conditioning breakdowns and extends equipment lifespan. During our comprehensive tune-up services, we perform multiple critical tasks that keep your system operating at peak efficiency. Our technicians clean both indoor and outdoor coils, check and adjust refrigerant levels, test all electrical connections, lubricate moving parts, and calibrate thermostats for accurate temperature control.

We recommend scheduling maintenance visits before the cooling season begins to identify potential problems before they result in system failure during hot weather. This proactive approach has helped countless customers avoid emergency repair situations and maintain comfortable indoor environments throughout summer months. As winners of the 2011 Better Business Torch Award for business ethics, we provide honest assessments and never recommend unnecessary services or replacements.

Signs Your AC System Needs Professional Attention

Recognizing early warning signs of air conditioning problems allows you to schedule repairs before complete system failure occurs. Several indicators suggest your cooling system requires professional evaluation:

• Weak airflow from vents indicates potential blower motor problems, ductwork issues, or clogged filters restricting circulation
• Warm air blowing when cooling is selected suggests refrigerant problems, compressor failure, or thermostat malfunctions
• Unusual odors emanating from vents may signal mold growth, electrical problems, or debris accumulation requiring immediate attention
• Excessive humidity despite continuous operation indicates your system cannot properly dehumidify indoor air
• Rising energy bills without increased usage suggests declining efficiency requiring professional diagnosis
