Common AC Problems We Fix

When your air conditioner fails, it often displays specific symptoms that point to an underlying issue. Understanding these common problems can help you know when to call for professional assistance. An experienced technician has the diagnostic tools and knowledge to pinpoint the exact cause of the failure, ensuring a precise and lasting repair instead of a temporary fix.

Our skilled technicians are equipped to handle a wide range of AC issues, including:

  • AC Not Blowing Cold Air: This can be caused by several issues, from low refrigerant levels and dirty filters to a malfunctioning compressor. A proper diagnosis is key to fixing it correctly.
  • Unit Leaking Water or Refrigerant: Water pooling around your indoor unit often indicates a clogged condensate drain line, while a refrigerant leak is a more serious issue that requires immediate attention from a certified professional.
  • Thermostat Malfunctions: Sometimes the problem isn't the AC unit itself, but a faulty thermostat that isn't communicating commands properly, leading to inconsistent temperatures or a system that won't turn on.
  • Loud or Unusual Noises: Grinding, squealing, or rattling sounds signal mechanical trouble. These noises should never be ignored, as they can indicate failing motors, belts, or other internal components that need immediate repair.
  • Constant On-and-Off Cycling: If your AC turns on and off frequently without completing a full cooling cycle, it could be due to an oversized unit, a dirty filter, or an electrical issue.

No matter the symptom, a prompt and professional repair is the best way to protect your system and restore your comfort.

Electrical Code Violations

If you like to handle household repairs and installations yourself or work with a local handyperson in Glen Allen, VA, you may get more than you bargained for doing electrical work. Here are the most common household electrical violations Woodfin – Your Home Team encounters. These violations can pose serious safety risks and are often highlighted in home inspections. It’s essential to address these issues ASAP and to adhere to local electrical codes and standards.

  • Ignition or Pilot Issues
    Problems with the electronic ignition or pilot light could prevent the furnace from firing up. This could be caused by a faulty ignition system or a problem with the gas supply.
  • Blower Runs Continuously
    A blower that won't shut off could indicate an issue with the limit switch.
  • Noises
    It's normal for a furnace or heater to make ambient noise when running, but if you hear strange noises like rattling, squealing, or grinding, shut it off and call for help.
  • Cracked Heat Exchanger
    If your furnace is undersized for your home, it could overheat, causing the heat exchanger to crack. A cracked heat exchanger is dangerous and could lead to carbon monoxide leaks.
  • Flame Sensor or Thermocouple Problems
    These components can become dirty or damaged, causing the furnace to shut off unexpectedly.
