\"Air-Conditioner-Tech\"The heating season isn\u2019t going to start for us for a little while, unlike most of the rest of the country. That means that you\u2019re still going to be using your air conditioner for at least a few more weeks. There is still a chance that your air conditioner will end up with some sort of problem before summer ends, which means you need to be on the lookout for any and all signs that something is wrong with the system. Have a look at some of the most common signs that your air conditioner is in need of repairs below.<\/p>\n

Refrigerant Leaks<\/h2>\n

If you start to see any kind of liquid dripping from your air conditioner, you should call for repairs as soon as you can. That might be a refrigerant leak, which is a serious threat to the health of the system. Refrigerant is the liquid that air conditioners rely on to cool the air. The output capacity of the air conditioner will fall along with the refrigerant level in the system, until it eventually breaks down entirely. Make sure you call for repairs before that happens.<\/p>\n

Short Cycling<\/h2>\n

Short cycling is when your air conditioner turns on and off every few minutes instead of completing a cooling cycle. It\u2019s usually caused by an electrical issue, and it creates a number of significant problems for the air conditioner. First, it prevents the system from cooling the home, since it can\u2019t complete a full cooling cycle. Second, it increases the wear and tear the system suffers in a short period of time. The longer the air conditioner short cycles, the more prone to developing problems the system will be. If the issue isn\u2019t dealt with in time, it could result in the entire system needing replacement.<\/p>\n

Ice<\/h2>\n

Ice forming on your air conditioner is a bad sign. The system typically freezes over when there isn\u2019t enough air moving across the evaporator coil, either because the air filter is clogged or the air handler isn\u2019t working properly. This causes the condensate on the coil to freeze. A frozen air conditioner coil won\u2019t have access to the air around it, and so won\u2019t be able to siphon heat out of the air to cool the home. The ice can cause other issues as well, like allowing liquid refrigerant to make it into the compressor and break it. The ice can spread down the refrigerant line to other parts of the air conditioner, causing further malfunctions and costly repair needs. If you have ice on your air conditioner, make sure you call a professional technician to take a look at it as soon as possible.<\/p>\n
