EL PASO, TX, May 04, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ -- "As Spring approaches and the weather warms, this is the time when everyone begins turning on their air conditioning," states Jose with SoBellas. This is also a time when a lot of people may begin to notice some issues with their AC unit. This can be frustrating, especially at a time when you need your AC unit to function properly. Thankfully, there are professionals out there who can help you with a variety of issues that you may run into with your air conditioning unit. Here are some signs to look for that you may need air conditioning repair.
The Air Flow Isn't Cold
If you turn on your AC, only to find that the air blowing out of it isn't cold, this may be an indication that something is wrong with your cooling unit, your coolant itself, or something else. In any case, it is crucial that you find out what is wrong so that you can get the cold air that you need to feel comfortable in your home.
You Don't Have Much Air Pressure
Another sign that you need air conditioning repair, is if you notice that you don't have much air pressure. Cold air is important, but having it blow throughout your home is even more important. If you have some kind of blockage in your ducts, vents, coils, or somewhere else, this may be stopping the air from flowing properly. This is not only frustrating, but it can also be dangerous if it isn't taken care of.
Your Thermostat Isn't Reading Properly
If you notice that your thermostat isn't functioning as it should, this is also cause for concern. According to Jose, "Your thermostat may show the wrong temperature, it may cause the AC to keep running when it shouldn't, or it may not turn on at all." If you are experiencing any of these issues, then calling a professional to come and inspect your thermostat right away is key. They will let you know if the problem lies with the thermostat itself, or if something more is going on.
Increased Energy Bills
Jose says, "If you notice that your energy bills are much higher than they have been in the past when running your air conditioner, this is cause for concern." Your unit itself may be old and no longer running properly, which would require a new installation. However, you won't be able to know anything for sure until you contact a professional for help.
Weird Noises Inside Your Unit
If your outside unit is making weird noises when it is running, this could be caused by a huge variety of things. You may have loose particles inside, build-up, damaged coil, etc. Since this can be caused by so many things, it can be very hard to guess on your own what is wrong. This is where a professional comes in. They can diagnose the issue and repair it quickly so that you can get your air conditioning unit up and running properly once again.
Unpleasant Smells
If your air conditioning unit has started to blow out some unpleasant smells, this is not only gross, but it is also unsettling. If you notice more of a burnt smell, this may be due to damaged wires inside the unit. If the smells are more moldy, this could be due to a build up of mold and/or mildew inside. Whatever the smell may be, you want to get it taken care of as soon as possible.
