With summer around the corner, now is the time to think about any air conditioner service you might need to have performed to keep your home comfortable. There are several things you can look for when thinking about air conditioner service, but some problems are more common than others.
Even if you recently had your regular spring maintenance performed, you should still look out for these four potential problems if your air conditioner is acting up.

  1. Air Conditioner Not Cooling Like It Used To
    This may be a sign of leaking refrigerant. If you sense troubles here, you’ll want to call in trained professionals, like Temp Air System Inc. in La Puente. This way, you’ll know for sure your system is properly repaired and running at its best. Not only will this ensure the leak is corrected, but the refrigerant charge will be matched to the manufacturer’s exact specifications, ensuring the optimal operation.
  2. Inadequate maintenance
    When your air conditioner’s filters and coils get clogged with dirt and grime you’ll see a notable decrease in your system’s efficiency, and possibly many other issues if you don’t have them changed or cleaned. Temp Air System Inc. can perform annual maintenance on your air conditioner to ensure it’s clean and running well.
  3. Cycling too frequently
    If it seems like your air conditioner cycles on and off frequently, it could be a sign it’s time to have a professional inspect your system and check the wiring while they’re there to look for corrosion and confirm the system is wired properly. Something else that may be causing an air conditioner to cycle on and off frequently could be that your system isn’t the appropriate size for your home. If this is the case, you may also find that your home is too humid. Since this problem could be caused by many factors, it’s best to deal with professionals as seasoned as the team at Temp Air System Inc..
  4. Drainage
    Your system was made to take care of draining the condensation that it produces during the cooling process. Mold and mildew problems can manifest if the drain becomes clogged, and this can lead to bigger problems.

Even if your air conditioner is newer, it can develop problems when it’s used often. Your system will be functioning at its best during the summer. If you run into issues or need to schedule annual, preventive maintenance to keep it running, call Temp Air System Inc. in La Puente.
