  • If you live in an arid climate such as Arizona,
    Utah, or California, surviving the summer without
    air conditioning is next to impossible. That
    said, air conditioning is expensive. Your
    electricity bill could jump from just a few
    dollars to hundreds of dollars if your AC unit is
    running all day! If you want to save on
    electricity costs and keep cool this summer,
    youll want to make sure that your AC unit is
    functioning properly. Below are ten signs to look
    out for that indicate your AC needs repair.

1. Your Home has Poor Indoor Air Quality
  • If your AC unit is running all the time and
    youre still hot and sweaty, check to see if the
    air inside the house is clean. If it isnt, there
    may be contaminants in the air ducts, which could
    lead to health issues later on. In addition, a
    dirty filter can cause your AC unit to run for
    longer periods of time than necessary. In any of
    these scenarios, be sure to call a professional
    HVAC company to repair your AC.

2. Your AC is Only Cooling Only One Room
  • If only one room feels cold on your thermostat,
    there may be an issue with that rooms AC unit.
    For example, it could have a problem with its fan
    or compressor. If you've noticed your AC is only
    cooling one room, hire an HVAC repair company to
    examine it and ensure that its working properly
    and efficiently.

3. You Hear Strange Noises Coming from Your AC
  • If you hear a loud whirring sound when you turn
    on your AC unit or see noise coming through the
    vents, there could be an issue with that
    particular part of your AC unit. A trained HVAC
    repair technician must examine it to determine
    whether that issue can be repaired or if the part
    needs replacing.

4. Your AC Stops and Starts Constantly
  • If your AC unit is constantly stopping and
    restarting, there could be issues with the
    thermostat or the compressor itself. This may
    have something to do with too little or too much
    refrigerant in the system. If your AC is
    constantly stopping and starting, hire a
    professional repair company to inspect it,
    determine whats going on, and figure out how
    best to proceed.

5. Foul Smells Are Coming from Your AC
  • If you notice a musty or fishy odor coming from
    your AC unit, there may be an issue with the air
    conditioner itself. Heating and AC units often
    have chemicals inside them that dissipate as heat
    escapes through the vents. So if your unit is
    leaking, it could be causing a bad smell to
    permeate the house. Call a repair company if you
    notice any of these signs.

6. Your Energy Bills Have Increased
  • If your energy bills have increased recently,
    theres a good chance your AC unit is broken.
    Its possible that your AC unit isnt functioning
    properly, which could be allowing the house to
    get too hot. If you notice this, you should have
    a trained repair technician examine the AC unit.

7. Your AC Makes Unusual Noises
  • The last thing you want is to hear strange noises
    coming from your AC unit. If you hear rattling or
    squeaking coming from the vents, it could be a
    sign of problems with your system. A professional
    HVAC repair company must evaluate such a
    situation to determine why it might be happening
    and what can be resolved.

8. Your Home Has Poor Airflow
  • If your AC cant keep you cool, there could be
    something wrong with the airflow of your home.
    HVAC repair companies have equipment that
    monitors airflow and provides recommendations on
    how best to resolve an issue.

9. You Can't Sleep
  • If you find yourself waking up in the middle of
    the night to change your fan speed, there might
    be a problem with your AC unit. A trained HVAC
    repair mechanic should to inspect it to figure
    out whats happening and fix any issues it might
    be experiencing.
