Here we are at the peak of summer, with temperatures continuing to soar. The\u00a0last thing you likely want to encounter at this time is a broken down air conditioning system, or even one that is experiencing concerning symptoms.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, it\u2019s rare that an air conditioner completely fails without first showing some warning signs. It\u2019s important to be aware of <\/em>these warning signs so that you know when it\u2019s time to call in the professionals. Remember, the sooner an AC problem is fixed, the better. Keep an eye\u2014and ear\u2014out for these following signs.<\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t take very long to get use to the sounds that your air conditioner makes on a daily basis once you have it installed. So if those noises change and you start to hear what resembles hissing, grinding, banging, or clicking, it typically means something is wrong.<\/p>\n Many homeowners believe that ice on their AC system is a normal occurrence, but unfortunately this isn\u2019t the case. Ice can be the result of a few different conditions, including clogged air filters, loss of refrigerant, or even coils that need to be cleaned.<\/p>\n Feel the air coming from your room vents. If the airflow seems weaker than it used to be, it could mean that you are experiencing trouble with the blower fan or have damage to your air ducts. Either of these could lead to a decline in air pressure.<\/p>\n Have you noticed hot or cold spots throughout your home? This typically indicates breached ductwork, or a sign that your air conditioner is not working as efficiently as it once did. If you notice this or any of the above mentioned symptoms, be sure to have your system inspected right away by one of our professionals.<\/p>\nOdd Noises from the Cabinet<\/h3>\n
