Living in Utah is fantastic. There are countless incredible outdoor spaces to visit, plenty of entertainment, and good people to share a meal with whenever you would like. However, the summer heat can be a bit relentless if you are unprepared.
Having a functional air conditioner shouldn’t be a luxury, but a necessity. Like any other machine, your AC unit may have maintenance needs or other issues that require a professional touch. Understanding when to call our team at CMB HVAC for your Air Conditioning Repair Service utah is crucial to keeping your home cool all summer long. Some of the more common issues you may come across include:
Dirty Filters:
Filters are way too easy to forget about. When too much dust and debris collect on these easy-to-replace filters, they can slow airflow or clog the system entirely. The less air moving through, the lower your efficiency – which is why you may be looking at a sky-high electric bill. Changing these filters out goes a long way to keeping your AC working properly. We service all models and see clogged filters all the time.
Leaking Refrigerant:
Refrigerant is that magical juice that cools the air and keeps you feeling relaxed on a warm summer day. If you have a leak in your system, you cannot get the temperature you want. If you aren’t getting cold airflow and there is a lot of water around the base of the unit, you probably have a leak. This is not a DIY AC repair job. Call our team to help out.
Ductwork Problems:
The last thing you want to do is crawl around your hot attic when the ducts are jammed up or clogged. If this happens, you’ll likely see weak airflow or uneven cooling in one room compared to another. We can swing by and perform a comprehensive inspection, so if your ducts need cleaning, our licensed and insured team can help.
External Fan Malfunction:
This is an easy problem to diagnose and a bit of a problem to replace. Your fan is what transfers that wonderful cold air into your duct system throughout your house. Overheating without the fan can cause health issues for you and the compressor in your AC unit. If you don’t see the fan turning, switch off your AC and give us a call. We are Utah’s local HVAC team to trust.
Thermostat Settings & Faulty Wires:
Modern thermostats can help control your environment, even from your mobile phone. However, if your system malfunctions or you have a few faulty wires, you can end up with extreme heat in your home instead of relaxing cool temps. Then there is the problem of faulty wiring causing fires. Call us immediately if you suspect you have a thermostat failing or faulty wiring getting in the way of your cool home.
Frozen Coils:
Anytime you catch a glimpse of frost on your AC’s coils, you’ve got a problem. This can be blocked airflow, low refrigerant levels, or a bad motor. All of which can mess with your temperature control. Regular maintenance helps avoid this problem before it arises. You may also want to check that nothing is blocking airflow around your unit.
