Troubleshooting tips you can do before calling a technician
- WARNING: Turn off main electrical power to the outdoor unit or indoor unit before attempting any maintenance operation.
- System isn’t on
*Check the breakers to ensure the unit is getting proper power. If the breaker is tripped, re-set, and check both outdoor and indoor units to ensure proper start up.
*Ensure thermostat is reading properly, and replace batteries if applicable.
- Air isn’t Cool
The air conditioning is blowing, but it’s not cooling sufficiently……
*Check the air filter to ensure it is clean as it will block airflow and not cool efficiently. If filter is dirty, start by installing the proper size for the unit
*Check around the condensing unit and ensure there is no high grass, or other obstruction to the air flow of the unit. If the coil is blocked, clear the overgrowth to improve air flow.
*Check your thermostat. Make sure the settings are correct, and the display is reading properly.
- CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE YOUR SYSTEM FOR EXTENDED PERIODS WITHOUT FILTERS, AS THE DUST IN THE AIR MAY PACK INTO THE FIN AREA OF THE INDOOR COIL CREATING A CONDITION WHICH COULD REQUIRE EXTENSIVE REPAIRS.
- The unit is freezing
The air conditioner cools, but freezes up after running during the heat of the day
*Check the filter to ensure a dirty filter isn’t causing improper airflow
*Check the condensing unit for overgrowth
*Check to ensure both the indoor and outdoor fans are operational
*Check supply/return vents to ensure they are not blocked by furniture or other items, an obstruction can cause improper airflow and cause unit to freeze
The A/C is running constantly running or turning on and off
If the unit is turning on and off intermittently
*Check the indoor drain pan, and drain line to ensure the unit is draining properly. Many of these systems have auxiliary safety switches that will turn the unit off to prevent further dehumidification and flood the area.
*If the drain pan/condensate line is full, call the office for instruction. Quarterly treatment of drain lines is recommended, and can be done during routine filter changes. Remove cap from access “T” and pour in ½ cup of bleach or white vinegar to keep the line clear of algae buildup.
The unit is running constantly
*If the unit runs all the time, check the thermostat to make sure the setting is not on “fan” and on “auto”
*Check to see if the fans are both running.
Once you have ruled out these issues, the system may need a technician to investigate further. Running
constantly can be a cause of low refrigerant, motor modules not functioning properly, or an issue with a computer board.
After you have checked for these common issues, and feel you still have an issue,
please call the office and someone will be happy to discuss further.
