Frequently Asked Questions

An AC blowing warm air could be from a refrigerant leak, which affects the cooling process. Another common cause is a dirty or clogged air filter that restricts airflow and reduces cooling efficiency. Additionally, a malfunctioning compressor or a faulty thermostat could also be the reason.

If your air conditioner fan is not coming on it might be due to a faulty fan motor that needs to be repaired or replaced. Or look to a malfunctioning capacitor, as well as a faulty thermostat, or a blown fuse could also be responsible for the fan not turning on.

Your AC is broken if it is blowing warm or hot air. Other signs include as unusual noises, such as grinding or rattling sounds, pointing to a mechanical issue. Also, if you notice a significant decrease in airflow or if the unit fails to turn on altogether, your AC unit likely requires a professional inspection and/or repair to diagnose and resolve the problem.

If your outdoor fan is not running, first, turn off the power to the unit, then check for obstructions or debris around the fan blades; if there are no visible issues, call a professional HVAC technician for further inspection and repair.

The presence of ice on your air conditioner is often due to an airflow issue or a refrigerant problem. Reduced airflow caused by dirty air filters, blocked vents, or a malfunctioning blower fan can lead to the evaporator coil becoming too cold and freezing condensation.

If your thermostat is blank, it could be due to a power issue or a malfunction. First, check if the thermostat’s batteries need replacement or if it’s connected to a power source. If the power supply is not the problem, there might be a wiring issue or a failure within the thermostat itself.

Common reasons include loose or damaged components, such as fan blades or compressor parts, which may vibrate and create noise during operation. Additionally, debris or dirt buildup in the system can lead to noisy airflow, and a malfunctioning motor or worn-out bearings can also contribute to the problem.

The most common cause is a faulty capacitor, which is responsible for starting the compressor and fan motors. Another reason could be a loose or worn-out fan motor, causing vibrations that produce the humming noise. Lastly, if the outdoor unit’s contactor is not functioning correctly, it can create a humming sound as it tries to engage the compressor.

If water is dripping from your air vents, it is essential to take prompt action to prevent any potential damage. First, turn off your air conditioner to halt the water flow and avoid further leakage. Then, check the air filter for clogs or dirt buildup, as a blocked filter can cause condensation to accumulate and overflow into the vents. If the issue persists, contact a qualified HVAC technician.

Signs that your water heater needs repair include inconsistent or insufficient hot water supply, strange noises coming from the unit, and visible leaks or water puddles around the tank. Additionally, if you notice rust-colored water or a metallic taste in the water, it could indicate corrosion inside the tank. Promptly addressing these signs can prevent further damage and extend the lifespan of your water heater.
