With summer approaching, now is the time to think about any air conditioner service you might need to have performed to maintain your home’s comfort. There are a number of things you can look for when thinking about air conditioner service, but some issues are more common than others.
Even if you recently had your annual spring maintenance performed, you should still look out for these four potential problems if your air conditioner isn’t running properly.
- Air Conditioner Not Cooling Like it Used To
This may be a sign of leaking refrigerant. If you feel there’s a problem here you’ll want to call in experienced professionals, like Titan Heating & Air Conditioning in Central Point. This way, you’ll be sure your system is properly repaired and running at its best. Not only will this make certain the leak is corrected, but the refrigerant charge will be matched to the manufacturer’s exact specifications, ensuring the optimal operation. - Inadequate maintenance
When your air conditioner’s filters and coils get clogged with dirt and grime you’ll see a marked decrease in your system’s efficiency, and possibly many other problems if you don’t have them changed or cleaned. Titan Heating & Air Conditioning can perform routine maintenance on your air conditioner to verify it’s clean and running well. - Cycling too frequently
If it seems like your air conditioner cycles on and off frequently, it could be a indication it’s time to have a professional inspect your system and look over the wiring while they’re there to look for corrosion and establish the system is wired properly. Something else that may be causing an air conditioner to cycle on and off frequently could be that your system isn’t the correct size for your home. If this is the case, you may also notice that your home is too humid. Since this problem could be caused by many factors, it’s best to deal with professionals as seasoned as the team at Titan Heating & Air Conditioning. - Drainage
Your system was devised to take care of draining the condensation that it creates during the cooling process. Mold and mildew problems can manifest if the drain becomes clogged, and this can lead to bigger problems.
Even if your air conditioner is newer, it can develop problems when it’s used frequently. Your system will be running at its peak during the summer. If you run into issues or need to schedule annual, preventive maintenance to keep it running, call Titan Heating & Air Conditioning in Central Point at 541-286-6617.
