Air conditioning is a wonderful amenity on a hot summer day. But how do you know if your air conditioning unit isn’t working as well as it should? The air conditioner repair experts at Absolute Comfort Heating and Air Conditioning in Lincoln, NE, have been providing air conditioner repair and HVAC installations to happy customers since 1996, and they are well-versed in the signs of a failing system. 

Here, these experts share the top four clues that your air conditioning unit may be on its way out:

• Noisy Unit: Air conditioners are supposed to run quietly and efficiently. If you notice that your air conditioning unit is making more noise than usual, it may be time for a repair or replacement. Something in the unit may be loose, or the motor may not be functioning properly anymore.
• Weak Airflow: If the airflow is lessened, it could simply mean you need to change your filter. Changing the air filter regularly is important for maximum air flow and quality air in your home. However, if you notice that the air flow doesn’t increase after a new filter has been installed, you may need to call a professional. 
• Delayed Cooling: If the compressor on your unit is starting to exhibit significant delays in emitting cool air, it’s a solid sign that something is either breaking or has stopped working. This may be something as simple as needing more coolant or it could be a much bigger problem.
• Frequent Repairs: When you are constantly calling your HVAC experts to repair your air conditioner, it may be time to replace it. A high frequency of repairs means there’s a deeper issue, and it’s probably more cost-effective to replace the whole unit with a newer, more efficient model.
