Common Air Conditioner Problems That Lead to AC Repair

Published on April 20, 2015

With the weather in Elkhart warming up, an AC repair is the last thing you want to think about as you turn your air conditioner on for the first time this season. So as air conditioner season gets underway, keep in mind a few ordinary air conditioner problems that you should be watching for when you turn on your system. These are a few of the most common AC problems we run into around Elkhart:

Insufficient Maintenance

Letting your air conditioner run over long periods without being looked at is likely to only cause more problems as time passes. Whether it results in regular air conditioner service or you end up needing air conditioner replacement, issues can begin to snowball, negatively impacting the efficiency and operation of your system. If air filters and coils become dirty and stay dirty, it’s likely that it will impact the compressor and fans that are a part of the unit, causing a shorter lifecycle. The answer to all these common AC problems is to have an AC tune-up done every spring.

Component Failure

When your air conditioner isn’t operating efficiently, the compressor and fan controls can wear out, or several other important components could be affected. When your system cycles on and off a lot there is undue stress placed on these internal components, causing improper operation or premature failure.

Thermostat Troubles

From a dead battery to a thermostat sensor that isn’t calibrated correctly, there are a number of thermostat issues that might also take place. If it has been a while since you last replaced your thermostat batteries, it could be time to do so in order to avoid any problems with the settings you have in place. After all, your thermostat is in charge of conveying your comfort desires to the system, keeping your home comfortable for you on the hottest of Elkhart days. Another option is to upgrade your thermostat to a more energy efficient programmable or ‘smart’ model.

Understanding common air conditioner concerns can help you check a few basic items off the list if you’re having trouble with your system, helping you avoid AC repair or potential air conditioner replacement. If at any time you think you’re having air conditioner problems and need someone to take a look at your system, give the team at BW/Cook Service Experts a call at 574-218-6404 or schedule an appointment online.
