Signs Your AC Is Failing


When your air conditioner fails, it’s important to act right away. However, sometimes it can be challenging to decipher when your AC is failing because the symptoms aren’t always obvious. 


Want to know the signs ahead of time? Read on to learn when to schedule repairs or air conditioning maintenance in Eaton, CO. 


1. Strange Sounds

You can typically hear your air conditioner unit kick on and off and you may also hear airflow, but the sounds are not usually loud or odd.  If you hear grinding or squealing there is probably something wrong.


Suffice it to say, if you are hearing something strange, consider scheduling air conditioning maintenance in Fort Collins, CO. 


2. Weak Airflow 

When you have weak airflow, you probably already know one thing: something is wrong with your AC unit. 


Unfortunately, weak airflow could be caused by a lot of problems, like:


  • Frozen evaporator coils
  • Dirty evaporator coils
  • Failing components
  • Dirty filters


Schedule your repairs as soon as you notice your AC unit is producing weak airflow. 



3. Air Is Not Cold

If your unit is blowing air that is not cold, it could be a problem with the thermostat or a result of a refrigerant leak.  If the air is not cold the system is not operating properly. 

 

If you notice the system is not cooling the home or the air flow is not cold, make sure to call for repairs as soon as possible to prevent a breakdown and to keep you and your family safe.
