Weak Airflow: If the airflow from your vents is weak, it could indicate a problem with the compressor or ductwork.
Warm Air: When your AC blows warm air instead of cool, there might be an issue with the refrigerant levels or the compressor.
Frequent Cycles: Constant cycling on and off can signal a need for a tune-up or a more serious problem.
High Humidity: An efficient AC should control humidity levels. If it fails, a repair might be necessary.
Leaks or Moisture: Any moisture around your system can be a sign of a refrigerant leak or a blocked drain tube.
Unusual Noises: Strange sounds like grinding or squealing can indicate mechanical issues.
Bad Odors: Foul smells may mean mold in the ducts or an issue with the unit’s insulation.
High Energy Bills: A spike in your energy bills often points to your AC working harder than it should.
Thermostat Issues: If the thermostat isn’t accurate or responsive, it could be faulty or need recalibration.
Age of the Unit: If your AC is over 10-15 years old, frequent repairs might signal it’s time for a replacement.
Detecting these signs early can prevent more extensive damage and costly repairs, ensuring your AC runs smoothly when you need it most.
