If you have trouble with your AC this spring, it is time to get it fixed. Issues with air conditioners are often due to cold weather and damage that has not been repaired since the previous summer. Therefore, there is a lot of work to do to prepare your AC for the winter weather. The following AC repair information will help you deal with these problems before using your system:
If your house isn't cooling down like it should when you turn the air conditioner on, you may want to feel the air coming out of the register vents. If the air isn't chilly like it should be, there is probably something wrong with your air conditioner. Here are three possible causes of an AC that blows warm air and what an air conditioner repair technician can do to help.
Your air conditioning system is a complicated system in your home that uses electricity. Since this system is used the majority of the day and night throughout the summertime, there is always a risk that an electrical problem could ensue at any time. Most homeowners do not have the electrical knowledge to perform an electrical repair should an issue arise. However, any homeowner can be attentive and catch warning signs of issues.
A furnace ignitor is a small part that lights your gas furnace so it can turn on and make heat. Newer gas furnaces don't rely on continuous pilot lights like old furnaces did. Instead, new furnaces send a signal to the ignitor that lights the flame when heat is needed.
The ignitor in your furnace may eventually go bad because they don't last as long as more durable parts of your furnace or the furnace itself.
The condensate drain line is where the condensation from your air conditioning system comes out. It then collects into a drip pan. This condensate line can clog with time and eventually lead to the condensation building up. If the condensation builds up in your air conditioning system, it can lead to your system freezing up, as this moisture will turn to ice. To prevent this from happening, you need to be sure your condensate drain doesn't clog.
