AC Repair FAQs
How come my AC is running but isn’t cooling?
If you’re dealing with a non-cooling AC unit (despite it turning on and seemingly running just fine), this could be happening for a variety of reasons, including:
- Improper unit installation
- Problems with your thermostat
- A clogged air filter
- Low refrigerant levels
How come there’s no air coming out of my AC?
An issue you might encounter is a lack of air from your AC. This can occur due to
- Frozen coils
- Blocked unit vents
- A broken unit capacitor
Is it worth it to repair my AC?
If the repair involves replacing a minor part, it may be better to get your unit fixed. However, if the repair demands an expensive component, or if your unit is beyond 15 years of age, it might be better to consider replacing the entire unit.
