Accurate Diagnosis Is Key to Successful AC Repair
While many homeowners are quite competent in recognizing when their AC isn’t working as it should, most do not have the knowledge necessary to accurately diagnose what’s causing their system to malfunction. An air conditioning unit consists of various parts, each of which must operate appropriately for the AC to continue to perform efficiently and powerfully. When one of these components develops a problem, it can cause the air conditioner to suffer from a range of issues.
The most common symptoms of a faulty AC part include:
Recognizing these symptoms of a problematic AC is only part of the battle. To ensure that a proper repair is performed, the cause of the issue must first be identified. The trouble is each of the above-mentioned symptoms can have several potential causes. For example, if your AC is blowing hot air, it could be due to an improperly set thermostat, tripped breaker, dirty air filter, frozen evaporator coil, or low refrigerant. Discovering the precise cause of your AC problems can be difficult without the right knowledge and skills. This is why it’s always important to work with an experienced AC technician who can accurately determine the source of the problem. Once the issue has been identified, the professional can advise you on the best options for repair.
Why Is My AC Leaking?
Here in SoCal, your air conditioner is working hard to keep you cool most of the year. When the temperatures are at their hottest, you may find that your AC is leaking. This issue could be due to several causes. The first thing to realize, however, is that it’s normal for condensation to form as an AC is working. As the hot air travels over your unit’s evaporator coil, moisture will form and drip into a drain pan that leads to the condensate drain line. If the water travels through this line outside your home, all is well. The problem is sometimes things go wrong and the water ends up inside your house.
The most common issue resulting in a leaky AC is a clogged condensate drain line. When this line becomes blocked by dirt, dust, and other debris, the water will be forced to go backwards into your home. Another potential cause of the leak is a dirty air filter. A blocked filter can prevent the flow of the air that’s moving over the evaporator coil, causing the coil to freeze. When the coil thaws, the excess water can cause the drain pan to overflow. A further issue that can cause this same problem is low refrigerant. When the volume of refrigerant is too low, it causes the pressure inside the unit to decrease, which can make the evaporator coil freeze.
