Is your air conditioning unit struggling to produce cold air? Not to worry! Unfortunately, many homeowners deal with this common problem. Here are some tips to avoid those scorching summer days with no relief to your air conditioner going out.
Common Causes of AC Unit Damage
Dirty Air Filter
Your air filters in the unit are going to need to be cleaned consistently. Usually, this can root out some of the most common issues and keep your unit running optimally.
sometimes, the filter will be completely broken or torn by stray debris. This will require replacement altogether and is actually a pretty simple install. You can probably get this done pretty quickly once you’ve identified the root of the issue.
Moisture Residue
When you have a ton of moisture residue start sprouting, these can even spread to be mold issues as well on surrounding surfaces. Make sure you are careful when scrubbing and cleaning, but take the time to assess how much the moisture has spread. It’ll often gather if there’s lower temperatures generally in the colder times of year. Through the summer and warmer climates, you’re going to see more overflow rather than stagnant moisture.
Broken Evaporator Coil
Usually, this coil won’t actually break completely, but instead freeze over. When frozen over, the temperature in the room hasn’t been mitigated properly. You’ll start to notice 70 degrees just doesn’t feel like 70 degrees anymore. Each of the two types of issues are technically fixable with do-it-yourself solutions.
