Hot weather will be here sooner than you think and you want to make sure your AC is working the way it should. There are three main reasons why your AC isn’t working properly. A dirty condenser coil can make the AC run less efficiently as it gets blocked up by dirt, leaves, and other debris because it reduces its power to disperse gas. You can fix this simply by turning the unit off, clearing the leaves and debris out of the way, and then spraying it down with a hose at medium power. The AC wont get ruined by that because its water sealed. An obstructed coil is another thing that can stress your AC. Plants, trees, and fences can block the air flow needed to make it run correctly. If you cant feel a lot of heat coming off the AC when you stand in front of it, it isn’t running the way it should. You can try and move things out of the path of the AC to fix the issue. Another issue you might have is a coolant leak or you might be running low on coolant. Coolant leaks can really stress the AC system and make it not run properly. This you have to have looked at and fixed by a technician and we here at Bartlett Heating and Air can help! Call us today to check your system out.
