When should you call
a professional?
Some AC issues are easy to see while others may need the eyes of a trained expert to be determined. While it is easy for any homeowner to do some repairs and maintenance, there are others that need to be left to the experts. Not only can the professionals fix the repairs but there is also less of a chance of making a costly mistake with it when they are the ones who handle it. Below are a few indications of when to call a professional.
Home is too hot
If you have done everything like block out sun and increase airflow but your house is still hot, there could be a problem with your unit. If your vents are blowing hot rather than cool air, it is obviously time to call a specialist to come to help you out.
There are uneven temperatures
throughout the home
While it is common to have a hotter temperature in the upper floors of a home, when there is a big gap in the temperature difference between the floors of a house this may signal that something is not working well in the vents, air filters or ductwork. Air filters can be replaced by homeowners, while a professional should always clean and check the ductwork.
Energy bills are extraordinarily high
If your energy bills seem to be creeping ever higher without reason, the problem may be that your air conditioner is losing efficiency and working harder to keep your home comfortable. An increasing energy bill could be due to dirty coils or may be due to something other than the unit itself, such as faulty window or door seals or torn ductwork. A professional can search for potential problems and find the cause to help you lower your energy bills.
There is restricted air flow
Weak airflow from a vent won’t cool a house down. In such cases, you’ll need to call on a professional to see if there’s a problem with the ducts or with the compressor.
Thermostat is not working
It is very frustrating when everything works but the thermostat. An experienced AC professional can easily check the wiring and recalibrate your system’s thermostat.
You experience loud noises
or bad smells
Noises from your AC unit, such as grinding and scratching is enough of a concern to contact a repair expert ASAP. A professional can diagnose the problem and repair or replace any malfunctioning or broken parts before serious damage occurs. Unpleasant odors from the unit’s vents can also be a sign of a problem that requires attention. Regardless of whether its a musty/moldy odor or burnt wires, an expert is typically necessary to fix the issue.
The unit is leaking
If you find that your unit is leaking any type of liquid, call in a professional immediately. While leaks are caused by water condensation tube cracks, they also contain injurious refrigerant liquid. Any sign of a leak should be enough to prompt you to call in a professional to check out your air conditioner.
