Warning Signs Your AC or Furnace Needs a Tech
Air conditioners and furnaces usually give some warning before they quit. Watch for these signs in your Carbondale home.
- AC blowing warm air
- Furnace blowing cold air
- Constant on-and-off cycling
- Grinding, banging, or squealing
- Water leaks near the equipment
Catching a problem early usually means a simpler repair. A yellow or flickering furnace flame deserves a call right away, since it can mean the furnace is not burning cleanly.
Before you call, check two quick things. Make sure the thermostat is set to the right mode, and look at the air filter. A clogged filter can shut down an air conditioner or a furnace, and swapping it may solve the problem.
What Usually Goes Wrong With an AC
Airflow problems cause many AC breakdowns. A clogged filter or a condenser coil packed with grass clippings and cottonwood fluff forces the system to work harder until it shuts down or stops keeping up.
Electrical parts are the other big category. Worn capacitors, failed contactors, and loose wiring can stop the compressor or fan from starting. Refrigerant leaks and blocked drain lines round out the list, and humid Kansas summers make a struggling system easy to notice.
Common Furnace Repairs
Ignition trouble is one of the most frequent furnace repairs. Igniters and flame sensors wear out or get coated with residue, and when they fail, the furnace starts, shuts off, and tries again.
Airflow and control problems cause much of the rest. A clogged filter or worn blower motor can make a furnace overheat and shut down, and a failing thermostat or control board can make a healthy furnace look broken. We check safety parts on every visit, because a cracked heat exchanger can let carbon monoxide into your living space.
