Imagine your
air conditioner not working during one of the most miserable heat waves in the history of the state of Georgia. While you might not care about the reason that your air conditioner isn’t working so much as you care about getting your unit back in working condition, learning more about the root of the problem can help you take care of it.
Duggan's One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning® is here to better educate you on your air conditioning unit.
Refrigerant Leaks
If your air conditioner is low on refrigerant, it might mean that there is either a leak or the unit wasn’t charged properly when it was installed. In this situation, you can’t simply add more refrigerant and expect your unit to operate as it should. You’ll have to turn to a trained
Augusta, GA AC repair company like Duggan’s in order to take care of the leak, test it and charge your unit up with the proper amount of refrigerant. Both you and your AC unit will benefit from proper refrigerant levels.
Improper Maintenance
Not having your unit serviced regularly is another reason for your air conditioner not working. If your coils and air filters become dirty, then your air conditioner won’t work as efficiently as it used to. Not only that, but there’s also the risk of your compressor and fans wearing out faster than normal.
Electric Control Failure
The fan controls and compressor of your air conditioner can wear out over time, and that’s especially true if you frequently turn your unit off and on. Since the failure of terminals and wires is common with a variety of air conditioner units, it’s best that a trained technician checks the electrical contacts and connections whenever they do maintenance. If you ever discover your air conditioner not working, don’t hesitate to
