2. Why is my AC not cooling properly?
If your AC isn’t cooling as it should, the cause could be something simple — like a clogged air filter, blocked vents, or an incorrect thermostat setting — or a more serious issue such as a frozen evaporator coil, low refrigerant, a failing compressor, or damaged ductwork. Begin by checking the basics: replace or clean the air filter, confirm your thermostat is set correctly, clear debris around the outdoor unit, and make sure indoor vents aren’t blocked. If cooling problems persist after these steps, it’s best to call a professional who can identify and repair more complex issues like refrigerant leaks or compressor failures.
If your air conditioning is running but not blowing cold air, possible causes include:
- Low refrigerant due to a leak
- Dirty air filters blocking airflow
- Frozen evaporator coils
- Thermostat malfunction
- Leaky ducts or airflow obstructions
This is a sign your system needs attention. Continuing to run it could cause more serious damage, so it’s best to turn it off and contact a pro ASAP. Family Plumbing, Heating & Air, Inc. – (951) 677-5445
3. Can I fix my AC myself or do I need a professional?
It’s fine to handle basic troubleshooting on your own — such as checking the thermostat, circuit breaker, or air filter. But when it comes to refrigerant, gas leaks, electrical parts, or unusual noises, it’s important to call a qualified AC technician. Attempting these repairs yourself can be dangerous, cause additional damage, or even void your system’s warranty. A professional has the proper training, experience, and specialized tools to safely manage complex tasks, including refrigerant recharging and other advanced repairs.
