Late Season AC Repairs that Help You For Next Year

AC Season is slowly winding down. Your AC has been through a lot this summer because of the many hot days we had. The end of AC season can be harder on your AC than you may think. There are a few different things you can do if your AC is struggling to help it for next season. One of the things you can do is to clean the condenser coil. That is the part outside where the refrigerant condenses sometimes leaving grime on the coil. Buildup on the coil can lead to the AC overheating. Cleaning that off will help the AC work more efficiently with less effort. Another thing you can do is to attach a hard start kit onto your AC. The AC compressor can begin to hard start over time which means it pulls too much energy to begin the cooling cycle. Adding the hard start kit to the AC will help it to not draw so much energy and not overwork itself to cool your home. One last thing you can do is to add more refrigerant to the AC. Your AC might leak the refrigerant out over the summer. If you lose a lot of refrigerant then you can put the system in jeopardy. When you are low on refrigerant you run the risk of your AC freezing up and not cooling your home. Adding more to the system will bring it up to par and allow it to cool your home. These are all simple things you can do to help the lifespan of your AC while keeping your home cool. Call Bartlett Heating and Air Conditioning today for all of your HVAC needs.
