As temperatures rise in Southern California, a functioning air conditioning system is essential for comfort. Recognizing early signs of AC issues can prevent costly repairs and ensure your home remains cool.
1. Warm Air Blowing
If your AC is emitting warm air, it could indicate a malfunctioning compressor or refrigerant leak. Prompt attention can prevent further damage.
2. Insufficient Airflow
Weak airflow might suggest a clogged filter or ductwork issues. Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance.
3. Frequent Cycles
An AC that frequently turns on and off may be struggling to maintain the set temperature, signaling potential thermostat or electrical issues.
4. Unusual Noises
Grinding, squealing, or rattling noises can indicate mechanical problems. Addressing these sounds early can prevent major breakdowns.
5. High Humidity Levels
Your AC should moderate humidity levels. If your home feels more humid than usual, it might be time for a system check.
