Addressing Common AC Problems in Winchester

Our technicians have seen it all when it comes to air conditioner malfunctions. We are fully equipped to diagnose and resolve a wide range of common and complex issues, including:

1. System Not Turning On: We troubleshoot issues from the thermostat to the circuit breaker and internal wiring to identify the source of the failure.
2. AC Blowing Warm Air: This often points to low refrigerant, a compressor issue, or restricted airflow, all of which we can accurately diagnose and fix.
3. Unusual Noises: Grinding, squealing, or clanking sounds can indicate serious mechanical problems. We can pinpoint the cause and perform the necessary repairs to prevent further damage.
4. Water Leaking From the Unit: A clogged condensate drain line or a frozen evaporator coil can cause water damage. We address these issues to protect both your AC unit and your home.
5. Frequent On-and-Off Cycling: Short cycling can be caused by an oversized system, a clogged filter, or low refrigerant, leading to unnecessary wear and tear.
6. Poor Airflow: Weak airflow from your vents can be a symptom of a clogged filter, blocked ductwork, or a failing blower motor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I have my air conditioner serviced?

We recommend scheduling professional maintenance for your AC unit once a year, ideally in the spring before the cooling season begins. This proactive service helps prevent breakdowns, improves efficiency, and extends the life of your system.

What are the signs that I might need a new AC unit?

Key indicators include the age of the unit (typically over 10-15 years), a significant increase in your energy bills, the need for frequent and expensive repairs, and inconsistent cooling throughout your home.
