How to Tell if Your AC is Broken

Published by Jennifer Fletcher

An air conditioner is essential to stay safe and comfortable at home. Still, as the weather warms, many homeowners may not realize that their air conditioners broke. If your air conditioner is broken, you may feel uncomfortable at home, especially as outside temperatures rise. Here are some common warning signs of a broken AC system you’ll want to know before scheduling service.

Warm Air

Your AC unit needs repair if it blows warm air even when the thermostat is set for cold air. Ideally, air conditioning systems blow cooled air throughout the home. If warm air blows from the unit, you may notice higher electricity bills later. Air filter repair or replacement can help fix this issue.

High Humidity

Similarly, if you notice hot, humid air from the air conditioner, call an HVAC company to repair it. Humidity in the home increases excess moisture leading to mold, mildew, and wood rot. Consider air conditioner repair for AC recalibration or whole-house dehumidification.

Strange Noises

Strange noises are another common air conditioning problem. Your air conditioning unit should make low-level buzzing noises as it functions. Have a certified HVAC technician inspect it if it makes loud, unusual noises. They’ll fix and replace broken parts so the AC unit works properly.

Water and Refrigerant Leaks

One of the most significant signs your air conditioner needs repair is leaks. You should never ignore water or refrigerant leaks from your air conditioner. Leaks pose significant concerns for your home’s structural integrity, such as damaging the foundation and releasing harmful chemicals into the air. Therefore, a replacement AC unit prevents leakage and protects indoor air quality.
