Deer Park, TX Central Air Conditioning Repair Services

Check These Four Things Before You Call For AC Repair:

With each spring, one of our service techs often arrives on a repair call only to find that the problem was a simple one that could have been resolved by the owner. If you check out these things, you may find you won't need our help after all:

Take these steps to prevent an unneeded emergency call:

First, ensure that your entire air conditioning system has power.

Make sure your "SYSTEM SWITCH" is set to "ON". This switch is typically a traditional toggle switch that may have a RED cover-plate adjacent to the indoor unit.
Check the circuit breaker on your electric panel for both you air handler / furnace, and your outdoor unit to ensure that neither of these breakers has tripped.
Check the outdoor unit electric disconnect that is typically mounted next to your condenser to make sure that it is "ON".

Then check your thermostat.

Make sure your thermostat is "ON", is set to "COOL", and the desired room temperature is set lower than the current ambient temperature.
If your thermostat has a battery, change it now.

Now check for indoor airflow issues: Poor indoor airflow can cause serious performance problems:

Is your furnace or air handler filter clean? Change your furnace filter and re-start your system.
Check your duct system inlets and outlets. Are almost all open and clear of obstructions?
After a few minutes of operation, is there a heavy accumulation of ice or frost on the refrigerant lines near the indoor coil? This can indicate improper airflow.

Other things to consider:

If your thermostat or the system power was off, after turning the system on give it a few minutes; many AC systems have a time-delay function on start-up.
If your system is blowing cool air, but not cooling as well as it should, check your outdoor unit to ensure there is nothing blocking airflow through the outdoor coil. PLEASE NOTE: Be very careful not to damage the fines on your outdoor coil and call us if you need help!

Installation Issues:

Improper Equipment Sizing:

More commonly, if a system short cycling without proper dehumidification in cooling mode it is probably too big.
Improper Ductwork: If duct systems are not properly sized areas can be too cool leaving other rooms that are too hot.
Condensate Problems: Water accumulating below your air handler because of an improperly designed drain connection.
Refrigerant Leaks: Air conditioning system is not turning on, or is running but not cooling properly.
Thermostat not working properly: Improper programming or wiring problems.

Deteriorated Performance Due to Deferred Maintenance:

Dirty Filters, Obstructed Indoor Coil, or Obstructed Grill or Registers: Indoor coil or refrigerant lines covered with heavy frost or ice during cooling often indicate inadequate airflow.
Obstructed or Clogged Outdoor Coils: Low system capacity and not cooling properly.

Now check for indoor airflow issues: Poor indoor airflow can cause serious performance problems:

Is your furnace or air handler filter clean? Change your furnace filter and re-start your system.
Check your duct system inlets and outlets. Are almost all open and clear of obstructions?
After a few minutes of operation, is there a heavy accumulation of ice or frost on the refrigerant lines near the indoor coil? This can indicate improper airflow.

Age Related Component Failures:

Breaker Trips: Breaker to the outdoor has unit tripped more than once potentially indicating improper wiring or potential compressor, fan motor, or capacitor failures.
Fan or Blower Motors: A persistent vibration or odd noise with the outdoor or indoor unit
Unusual Odors: Near the outdoor unit, or coming from the ductwork outlets.
