How To Fix These 3 End-Of-Summer AC Issues

After running your air conditioner for the majority of the summer, you might run into thermostat issues, airflow problems, or mechanical concerns. Don’t neglect AC maintenance as fall approaches if you want to alleviate common problems. 

Learn how to fix these three end-of-summer AC issues in this helpful guide from Dion’s Complete Plumbing, Heating & Cooling. 

1. Refrigerant Leaks

Refrigerant leaks quickly raise energy costs because your system must work harder to produce cool air and may even lead to compressor failure. Leaks may occur due to standard wear and tear or damage to the unit, but are nonetheless serious issues.

You don’t want to risk the system leaking refrigerant until it runs out. Schedule an inspection with a professional HVAC technician and let them repair the leak and restore your refrigerant level so you’re prepared for the next cooling season. 

2. Dirty Coils and Filters

As your air conditioner runs, it’ll pull in dust and debris. This debris is caught by the filter and can settle on the coils, which, in turn, can reduce airflow and affect your system’s cooling capacity.

Change your air filter every few weeks and take a soft brush to scrub visible dirt from your air conditioner’s coils. Proper coil cleaning and filter changes will drastically improve your system’s performance and energy efficiency. 

3. Burnt-Out Motors

Your air conditioning system has worked tirelessly through the summer, and that’s likely taken a toll. Overworking the system can result in a burnt-out motor or fan. This problem can create strange noises, reduce cooling capacity, and more. Lubicate moving parts like the motor and fan blades so they operate correctly and don’t grind against other components. In addition, you can schedule regular maintenance to address potential issues.
