Signs You Need Your AC Repaired

When to Call for Professional Air Conditioning Repair

Although you can remedy some issues on your own, like changing out your ac filter or adjusting the thermostat, many AC malfunctions require the help of an expert technician.

A few of the most common signs that you may need a professional AC repair service include:

  • Your air conditioning system isn’t coming on
  • Your Thermostat is Glitching
  • AC is blowing warm air
  • Frozen evaporator coils
  • Air conditioning leaks
  • Noisy AC system
  • Foul smells coming from your air conditioning unit

It’s critical to understand that when even the most minor air conditioning problems go unaddressed, they tend to become much more significant issues, and more costly to resolve.

AC REPAIR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is my air conditioner leaking water?

There are several potential causes for an air conditioner to leak:

  • Clogged or blocked condensate drain line: The condensate drain line is responsible for draining the condensation that accumulates during the cooling process. Over time, this drain line can become clogged with dust, dirt, debris, or mold, leading to a blockage and causing water to back up and leak from the air conditioner.
  • Damaged or disconnected drain pan: The drain pan is located beneath the evaporator coil in the indoor unit of the air conditioner and is designed to collect condensate before it is drained away. If the drain pan is damaged, cracked, or improperly installed, it can result in water leaking from the air conditioner.
  • Improper installation: If an air conditioner is not installed correctly, it can cause leaks. For example, if the unit is not level, it can cause condensation to accumulate in certain areas and result in leaks.
  • Refrigerant leak: Air conditioners rely on refrigerant to cool the air. If there is a refrigerant leak, it can cause the evaporator coil to freeze up and eventually thaw, resulting in water dripping from the air conditioner.
  • Dirty air filter: A dirty air filter can reduce airflow and cause the evaporator coil to become too cold, leading to condensation buildup and potential leaks.
  • Overloaded or oversized unit: If an air conditioner is too large for the space it is cooling or if it is running continuously without adequate rest periods, it can cause excessive condensation and lead to leaks.
  • Broken or malfunctioning condensate pump: Some air conditioning systems use a condensate pump to remove condensation. If the pump is broken or malfunctioning, it can cause leaks.

It’s important to address any leaks from an air conditioner promptly to prevent further damage and maintain efficient operation. Contact our air conditioning repair experts today at 281-446-4271.

Why is my AC blowing hot air?

There could be several reasons why your air conditioner is blowing warm air. Here are some possible causes:

  • Thermostat Settings: Check your thermostat settings to ensure that your air conditioner is set to “cool” mode and not “fan” mode. If it’s set to “fan” mode, it will only circulate air without cooling it.
  • Dirty Air Filter: A dirty air filter can restrict airflow, causing your air conditioner to work harder and potentially blow warm air. Check and clean or replace your air filter if it’s dirty.
  • Refrigerant Leak: If your air conditioner is low on refrigerant due to a leak, it may not be able to cool the air properly, resulting in warm air blowing from the vents. A refrigerant leak requires professional repair.
  • Faulty Compressor: The compressor is a critical component of your air conditioner that is responsible for compressing the refrigerant and maintaining the cooling process. If the compressor is faulty, it may not be able to cool the air, resulting in warm air blowing from the vents.
  • Blocked Condenser Unit: The condenser unit is located outside and can become blocked by debris, dirt, or vegetation, reducing its ability to release heat. This can cause the air conditioner to blow warm air. Make sure the condenser unit is clean and clear of any obstructions.
  • Electrical Issues: Electrical problems, such as a faulty capacitor or motor, can affect the performance of your air conditioner and result in warm air blowing from the vents. These issues may require professional repair.

If your air conditioner is blowing warm air, it’s best to contact our licensed HVAC technicians to diagnose and resolve the issue, as air conditioning systems can be complex and require specialized knowledge for accurate troubleshooting and repair.

Why is my air conditioner frozen?

If your air conditioner is frozen, it may not be able to cool your home effectively and could potentially cause damage to your AC system.

Here are some possible reasons why your AC unit may be freezing up:

  • Restricted Airflow: Poor airflow is one of the most common causes of AC freezing. Restricted airflow can be caused by a dirty air filter, blocked air vents, closed or blocked return air grilles, or obstructed ductwork. When the airflow is restricted, the evaporator coil, which is responsible for absorbing heat from the air, can become too cold and freeze.
  • Low Refrigerant Level: Refrigerant is the chemical that absorbs and releases heat as it circulates through your AC system. If your AC system is low on refrigerant due to a leak, it can cause the evaporator coil to become too cold and freeze. A refrigerant leak requires professional repair.
  • Dirty Evaporator Coil: Over time, the evaporator coil can accumulate dirt and dust, reducing its ability to absorb heat from the air. This can cause the evaporator coil to become too cold and freeze.
  • Malfunctioning Blower Fan: The blower fan is responsible for circulating air over the evaporator coil to facilitate the heat exchange process. If the blower fan is not functioning properly, such as running at a low speed or not running at all, it can cause the evaporator coil to freeze.
  • Thermostat Issues: If the thermostat is set to a very low temperature or if it’s malfunctioning, it can cause the AC system to run excessively, leading to the evaporator coil becoming too cold and freezing.
  • Defective Defrost Sensor: Some AC systems have a defrost sensor that monitors the temperature of the evaporator coil and initiates a defrost cycle to prevent freezing. If the defrost sensor is malfunctioning, it may not trigger the defrost cycle, leading to the evaporator coil freezing.

If you notice that your air conditioner is frozen, it’s important to turn off the AC system and allow the ice to thaw before attempting to restart it. Continuing to run a frozen AC system can potentially cause damage to the compressor or other components. Contact our licensed HVAC technicians to diagnose and resolve the issue to prevent further problems and ensure that your AC system operates efficiently.

How much will an AC Repair Cost?

The cost of AC repair can vary depending on several factors such as the nature of the problem, the extent of the damage, the type of air conditioning system, and the region in which you reside. Additionally, different service providers may have varying pricing structures.

On average, the total cost of an AC repair will typically range from $150 to $900, including parts and labor. For more Information, click here: AC Repair Costs Broken Down Further

Scott A.Scott A. ★★★★★ We just received the finest, most professional A/C service from Cruz A/C & Electric. Additionally, we met one of the most outstanding, professional, and upstanding young man in Dylan Pesnell, that we’ve have encountered in many years. I’d like to highly RECOMMEND and briefly decribe our experience with both; Cruz A/C & Electric for their service, efficient turnaround time and communications we received. And of course, Dylan, who made it all happen.Evening time ion 08/15, we had ½ of our home in Huffman, TX, without working thermostats or A/C. Knowing Cruz A/C & Electric were located in Humble, the possibility of service to the remote Huffman Commons would probably be next day.I called Cruz A/C & Electric at 5:18pm on Monday 08/15 and reached their answering service. They were polite and quickly took my information. Within 4 minutes, Dylan called me at 5:22pm and said he would come out to our home. At 5:25pm, I received a text message from Cruz A/C & Electric that Dylan was heading our way and the message professionally conveyed Dylan’s certifications and phone numbers to call should we encounter any issues.Within minutes, Dylan arrived, very professional in dress and demeanor and confident in assessing the problem. Before 6pm, Dylan not only assessed the problem but made the necessary repairs and our entire home was cooling again.Many thanks and a HIGH recommendation to Cruz A/C & Electric for their automated communications and rapid turnaround time for completing everything.As for Dylan, he’s an incredible, capable resource that shows a tremendous amount of positivity and confidence that Cruz A/C and Electric should be proud of. He chatted with me for a few minutes after the repairs, and I can honestly vouch for his level of skills and confidence/capability. He’s definitely a family man too.Coach/PIO (aka Scott A.)Response from the ownerHi, Mr. Abshire - Thanks so much for writing and sharing your kudos and appreciation for Dylan's hard work and professionalism.
