Phoenix Homeowners: Signs You Need AC Service

Being able to spot the signs that your air conditioning system needs professional attention is extremely beneficial. It’ll allow you to catch problems early before they spiral into more serious faults, keeping repair costs down. It’ll also help you to extend the life of your AC unit.

Here are some of the key symptoms to look out for:

Increased Energy Bills

If your energy bills are suddenly higher than usual without a corresponding increase in usage.

Insufficient Cooling

If your air conditioner is running constantly but not effectively cooling your home, there may be an issue with the compressor, refrigerant levels, or airflow.

Strange Noises

Unusual sounds like grinding, squealing, or rattling can signal problems with the fan, motor, or other mechanical components of your AC system.

Unpleasant Odor

If you notice musty, burning, or chemical smells coming from your air conditioner, it could indicate mold growth, electrical issues, or refrigerant leaks.

Poor Air Flow

Weak airflow from your vents can be caused by a clogged air filter, damaged ducts, or a failing blower motor.

Don’t wait to have minor issues taken care of by a professional AC contractor. When you spot any of these warning signs, call Northern Air to schedule an inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Residential AC FAQs

How often should I have my AC unit serviced?

You should have your AC unit serviced at least once a year, before the peak cooling season, to ensure it’s running efficiently and safely. Regular maintenance helps prevent problems and breakdowns during the summer.

What does an AC service include?

A typical AC service includes checking refrigerant levels, testing for leaks, cleaning coils and filters, checking voltage and amp readings, lubricating parts, and ensuring proper airflow and temperature differences. An AC service from Northern Air includes a full 45-point inspection, professional adjustments where needed from an experienced technician, and a condensate drain line flush worth $150.

What can I do to make my AC more energy efficient?

Some easy ways to improve AC efficiency include replacing filters monthly, keeping coils clean, setting the thermostat to 78°F or higher, using a programmable thermostat, sealing ductwork leaks, upgrading to a newer model unit, and adding insulation in your home.

Why does my AC freeze up sometimes?

An AC freezing up is usually caused by low refrigerant levels, dirty filters or coils, a clogged condensate drain line, or a failing fan motor or compressor. One of our technicians can quickly identify and resolve the specific issue.

What should I do if my AC stops blowing cold air?

If your AC blows warm air, turn it off and call us at Northern Air. Possible reasons include low refrigerant, an electrical issue, frozen coils, or failure of parts like compressors, motors, sensors, or thermostats. Only a certified technician has the tools to diagnose and fix the problem.

How long should an AC unit realistically last?

With proper maintenance, most AC compressors last 10-15 years. Full AC unit life spans average 15-20 years. Routine service improves longevity, while lack of maintenance often shortens it. Newer units also tend to last longer due to energy efficiency improvements.

Should I invest in a new, energy-efficient system?

If your current system is over ten years old and has frequent problems, upgrading to an ENERGY STAR-certified system can save on utility bills. New systems have improved efficiency ratings up to 20 SEER and can better control humidity and air quality.
