AC Repair in Greensboro, NC
A central AC usually quits on the hottest week of the year, when every contractor in the Triad is busy. Many failures come down to a few common parts, and a technician can often fix them in one visit.
Request an AC technicianCheck the basics first
Make sure the thermostat is set to cool, the filter isn't clogged and the breaker and the outdoor disconnect are on.
Warm air
If the outdoor fan or compressor isn't running, a failed capacitor or contactor is a common cause and a quick repair.
Frozen lines
Ice on the copper lines or indoor coil means poor airflow or low refrigerant. Turn the system off and let it thaw before the technician arrives.
Refrigerant leaks
Low refrigerant always means a leak. Finding and fixing it is better than topping it up every summer.
Water around the air handler
A clogged condensate drain can overflow into a closet, attic or crawl space.
Strange noises
Buzzing, rattling or squealing usually means electrical parts, loose panels or a worn fan motor.
Short cycling
A unit that turns on and off every few minutes may be oversized, low on refrigerant or have a thermostat problem.
Older systems
Systems using older refrigerants are getting more expensive to recharge, which tips some repairs toward replacement.
