Air Conditioning Problems (and Solutions)

Air Conditioning Problems (and Solutions)
1st September 2020 by Jack Sparrow

However, if you encounter air conditioning problems we are also here to help!

Unfortunately, as with everything in life, from time to time things can go wrong. While we hope that this is not the case, we can also help if you are in a pickle. Our air conditioning repairs service is prompt and friendly and will have you feeling assured and up and running in a flash!

Air isn’t being cooled

This seems to be the most commonly encountered problem when a unit isn’t providing the cooling effect it usually would. There are a few reasons as to why this could have happened. One reason could be that there is a vast temperature difference between what is set on the unit and the temperature outside. Another reason could be that there is dirt on the filter that is affecting efficiency. Otherwise, it is also possible for ice to have formed on the pipes or for there to be a low level of refrigerant. However, if the refrigerant is at a low level this suggests there is a leak, refrigerant doesn’t naturally consume itself. Have you found refrigerant leaking? Well, contact us immediately as this should be handled by professionals!

If you have encountered this problem it is good practice to start by checking the filter. If it is particularly dusty or dirty, try cleaning it and seeing if this has a difference. Once you have tried this, then see if turning the thermostat right down helps. If it does not, it is possible that the thermostat itself is broken and needs replacing. Aside from checking the filter and testing the thermostat, if you are still unsure then it might be time to call in the professionals.

That’s where we come in! Our trusted professionals provide a quick and effective air conditioning repairs service that will have you jumping for joy. You can access our contact form on our website here.

Unit is leaking

To be able to blow cold air, a unit usually uses condensation that is passed through its pipes. For any reason, if the pipes crack or become broken then the condensation wouldn’t be able to drain properly. This can lead to further damage with other parts of the unit too.

Unfortunately, there isn’t anything that can be done to remedy this yourself. Thankfully, we are on hand to be able to solve this issue. Our team of specialists carry all the know-how and equipment to rectify these air conditioning problems for you without breaking too much of a sweat!

Unit is making excessive noise

Nowadays, almost all air conditioning units operate very quietly. This is one of the attractions of having air conditioning installed. Therefore, if you start to hear rattling or excessive noise, it is likely because something is wrong with the unit.

There are many moving parts in an air conditioning unit that are subjected to wear and tear in a units lifetime. It is also important to have your air conditioning serviced and maintained regularly and correctly.

If there is a rattling noise it could possibly indicate bearing problems with the motor. Whereas a clanging noise can be due to a more serious issue with the motor. These problems, left unchecked, can cause further issues and more expensive repairs.

Call in the troops by contacting us and we will deploy our professionals to get you on your feet again and winning the war against the heat.

Unit isn’t functioning

If the air conditioning unit has stopped working completely, it could, in fact, be a simple solution. Always check the circuit breaker first. If it is in the off position, switch it back to on and try operating the air conditioning unit again. For any reason, if it trips the breaker again, don’t attempt to diagnose it yourself and call us to assess and rectify any air conditioning problems.
