There’s nothing worse than having your air conditioning go out in the middle of a brutal summer day. Fortunately, most AC systems send up plenty of warnings that something’s going wrong, giving you time to get it fixed before winding up in a sweltering house. Below are a few common signs you need air conditioning repairs.

Common Signs of AC Problems

1. It’s Blowing Warm Air

If the air coming out of the vents isn’t cool, there might be a problem with your thermostat. If that seems to be functioning normally, have an air conditioning repair professional check out the airflow and compressor.

2. There Isn’t Much Circulation

Restricted airflow is a common issue that might represent serious problems with the AC. If some rooms receive cold air while others don’t, clogged ductwork or a dirty filter could be to blame. Otherwise, your system might be suffering from a failing compressor or broken motor.

3. The System Cycles Constantly

While your AC system will likely kick on more frequently on the hottest summer days, it shouldn’t constantly cycle. If the system activates almost as soon as it shuts off, call an air conditioning repair expert to rectify the problem with a thorough tuneup.

4. You Find Moisture Around the Unit

Liquid pooling around the AC unit can indicate a refrigerant leak, which poses a serious health risk to your family members and pets. However, it could also mean that the drain line is clogged, causing water to pool inside the machine. In either case, an AC repair technician can diagnose the problem and offer solutions to prevent further damage.
