Risks of using a damaged AC

If one or more parts of your air conditioner are damaged, you risk causing even greater damage that may facilitate extensive, costly repairs or a total replacement. All the parts of your AC work together to bring the cool air through your vents, so when one or two wear down, the rest have to work that much harder. Eventually, the whole system will break down and you’ll have no choice but to call for repairs. Call when you first notice trouble and minimize the overall damage. 

 

5 Signs Your Air Conditioner Needs Repair

​

1. It’s Blowing Hot Air.

​

If your system is blowing hot air, then it may indicate a broken compressor. It could also indicate a refrigerant leak. Neither one is impossible to fix, and it may cost less than you think, but you will need to address the problem before you will be able to use your system.

​

2. Moisture Near Your System

​

If you start noticing moisture or leaks around your system, then you have a problem. Sometimes this is a minor issue, like something blocking the drain tube that channels the condensation away from the air conditioner. This does not indicate an emergency, but you will want to fix it to avoid creating an environment for mold growth. Sometimes moisture can indicate a refrigerant leak, which is more serious. Either way, you need to address the issue quickly to avoid further problems.

​

3. Unusual Sounds. 

​

Your air conditioner should run fairly quietly. While you will notice a sound from the motor, you should not hear grinding, squealing, grating, or other loud sounds. The sooner you address these sounds, the better for your system. Often the problem can be remedied before you need to replace the unit entirely.

​

4. Unusual Smells. 

​

A strong, pungent smell may indicate the wire insulation in the system is burned and needs to be replaced. Musty smells are an indicator of mold, which puts your family’s health at risk.

​

5. High Humidity Levels 

​

Part of an air conditioner’s job is to pull humidity from the air inside your home. If you are noticing water pooling around windows or a sticky feeling to the air inside your home, it’s a good indication that your air conditioner isn’t working properly. Give Chestnut Mechanical a call to determine if you have a problem.
