What Are the Most Common Problems for AC Units?

Sacramento summers can be tough on your air conditioning system. Even the best units can experience wear and tear after working hard to keep your home cool and comfortable. Familiarizing yourself with common AC problems can help you spot issues early on and prevent more extensive (and costly) repairs down the road.

Here are some issues we frequently encounter:

  • Refrigerant leaks: Low refrigerant levels reduce your AC’s cooling power, resulting in weak airflow or warm air blowing from the vents.
  • Electrical problems: Faulty wiring, capacitors, or thermostats can disrupt the electrical signals that control your AC system. This might cause your unit to cycle on and off frequently or not turn on at all.
  • Frozen evaporator coils: A frozen evaporator coil prevents proper cooling. This often happens due to restricted airflow caused by a dirty air filter or blocked vents.
  • Clogged condensate drains: The condensate drain removes condensation produced during the cooling process. If it gets clogged, water can back up, potentially causing water damage or mold growth.
  • Fan motor issues: Problems with the fan motor in the indoor or outdoor unit can affect airflow and cooling efficiency. You might notice strange noises or reduced airflow.

Don’t let a small AC problem turn into a major headache.

At the first sign of trouble, contact Brower Mechanical. Our experienced technicians can quickly diagnose the issue and provide the necessary repairs to restore your AC’s performance and keep your home cool and comfortable throughout the Sacramento summer.

Do I Need to Repair My AC?

A malfunctioning air conditioner can make your Sacramento summers unbearable. It’s important to recognize the warning signs so you can address issues promptly and avoid a complete breakdown. 

Here are some common symptoms of a faulty AC unit:

  • Insufficient cooling: This is the most obvious sign. If your home isn’t cooling down to the set temperature on your thermostat, or if you notice uneven cooling throughout your home, your AC unit may be struggling.
  • Poor airflow: Weak airflow from the vents indicates a problem. This could be due to various issues, such as a clogged air filter, blocked vents, or a problem with the blower motor.
  • Unusual noises: Strange sounds like banging, clanging, squealing, or grinding are clear indications that something is wrong with your AC unit. These noises could signal problems with the fan motor, compressor, or other components.
  • Frequent cycling: If your AC unit has been turning on and off more frequently than usual, you may have a problem with the thermostat, refrigerant levels, or electrical components.
  • Water leaks: Water leaking around the indoor unit or from the drain line can indicate a clogged condensate drain or a refrigerant leak.
  • Unpleasant odors: Musty or burning smells coming from your AC unit can signal mold growth, electrical problems, or a refrigerant leak.
  • Increased energy bills: If your energy bills are higher than usual despite no change in your usage habits, your AC unit may be working harder than it should be due to a malfunction.

If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to contact a qualified HVAC technician to diagnose and repair the problem. Ignoring these signs can lead to further damage and more costly repairs down the road. Don’t hesitate to call Brower Mechanical for prompt and reliable AC repair service in Sacramento.

Are AC Repairs Expensive?

The cost of AC repairs can vary significantly depending on the problem, the type of unit you have, and the necessary parts and labor. While some repairs might be minor, others can be more involved and, therefore, more expensive.

Here are a few factors that can influence the cost of AC repairs:

  • The severity of the problem: A simple fix like a clogged drain line will cost less than a major repair like a compressor replacement. 
  • Type of AC unit: Different types of AC units have different components and complexities, which can affect repair costs. 
  • Parts and labor: The cost of replacement parts and the amount of labor required for the repair will also play a role in the overall expense. 
  • Accessibility: If the unit is difficult to assess, it may take longer to diagnose and repair, potentially increasing labor costs.

At Brower Mechanical, we believe in transparent pricing and upfront estimates for all our repairs. We’ll always discuss the problem and associated costs with you before starting any work so that you can make an informed decision.

We can help you keep your home cool and comfortable without breaking the bank.
