A home that isn't well cooled during the summer season is uncomfortable and inconvenient. Your cooling system should provide proper comfort all season long, and if it's not, then there are probably some underlying issues resulting in this. We will cover some of the most common AC problems and solutions to get your home back to its cooled environment.

Dirty Coils
Dirt and debris are huge culprits in HVAC issues. Your central air conditioner has two sets of coils: condenser coils and evaporator coils. When either of these coils gets overwhelmed with dirt, the functionality of your air conditioner is reduced as output begins to be disrupted. The simple solution is to clean your coils. Cleaning coils take a certain step-by-step process that homeowners are not familiar with. It is best you call in a licensed HVAC expert from Maple Air Heating and Cooling to help get your coils cleaned.

Dirty Filter
We weren't lying when we said dirt is a huge culprit in many HVAC issues. Dirty air filters are one of the most common reasons for air conditioner problems. This small task is often overlooked, and homeowners do not understand the impact a dirty air filter has on an air conditioner. Continuously running your AC with the use of a dirty air filter causes the system to overwork itself. The solution is quick, easy, and straightforward: replace your air filter every 60 to 90 days.

Refrigerant Leak
Refrigerant, or coolant, is an important element in your air conditioner. This compound is involved in a process that provides cool air for your space. When there is a refrigerant leak in your home, you may notice that your home is not being cooled. The solution for a refrigerant leak is determined after the issue is pinpointed. There could be many reasons for a refrigerant leak that are best determined by a certified HVAC expert. Some signs of a leak include but are not limited to increased indoor humidity levels, frozen evaporator coils, high energy bills, etc. If you are experiencing any of these signs, give us a call immediately.

Need a New Air Conditioner?
There are instances where air conditioner problems can be easily resolved and repaired, but there are some cases where there is far too much damage. This is often the case when an issue is ignored and not dealt with for an extended period of time. Additionally, older air conditioners may experience issues more often simply due to their age.
