Common Problems with AC Units
While lots of issues can potentially arise that impair the function of an AC unit, some of the most common issues faced by El Paso homeowners include low refrigerant; problems with the outside fan; and frozen coils. Refrigerant, or freon, is the chemical which actually chills the air in an air conditioner. If your freon is low, your system won’t work. In around 90 percent of cases where recharging with more freon is necessary, there is a leak that leads to the problems. Problems with the outside fan are a different issue which affect the fan that conveys heat from the home to the outside air. Fan problems mean proper heat transfer won’t take place and the air conditioner’s compressor could be damaged. Finally, a frozen coil can be an indicator of air flow issues with your AC unit.
What to Do If You Have Problems with Your AC Unit
If you have problems with your AC unit, you need to act. Fixing your air conditioner in a timely manner is essential, as some issues could cause more damage to occur. Repairs could become more costly if you delay. You could also find yourself uncomfortable in the El Paso heat.
