The most common problem with an Air Conditioner System is the lack of maintenance. Dirty coils result in high electric bills and overheating motors cause capacitors to break down. Low refrigerant level lead to extended running time. Clogged drain lines may result in water damage. If your system has not been cleaned or serviced in the past three years we strongly recommend having it done. Clean coils and sufficient refrigerant help to save energy and money.
Verify the following when the A/C is not working:
- – Circuit Breakers of HVAC system are not tripped
- – Thermostat set properly on “COOL”
- – Filters are clean
- – GFI outlet for condensate pump is not tripped (pump located in basements or crawl spaces)
After the basic troubleshooting steps, if your A/C is still not working, please check for the following:
- – System running continuously but not cooling
- – Water in secondary drain pan
- – Blank thermostat
- – Outdoor unit not working
- – Unit icing up
