What Kinds of AC Problems Can We Fix?

We fix all kinds of AC problems so that your home stays cool and pleasant. Here are some of the most typical problems we deal with:

  • The AC won't start
    Your system either stays quiet or tries to start but then stops right away. It could be a problem with the thermostat, the capacitor, or the wiring.
  • Air that is warm instead of frigid
    If your vents blow warm air, the refrigerant may be low, the filter may be dirty, or the compressor may be broken.
  • Airflow that is weak or unequal
    If certain rooms feel cooler than others or the air doesn't move very much, the problem could be with your ductwork, fan motor, or blocked filters.
  • Weird sounds or scents
    If you hear rattling, banging, burning scents, or musty aromas, it usually means there are electrical difficulties, dirt accumulation, or mold inside the system.
  • The system shuts off or cycles a lot
    If your air conditioner keeps turning on and off, it could be because the thermostat is broken, the filter is clogged, or the refrigerant levels are off.
  • Water leaking or accumulating around the unit
    If you see water near your AC, it could mean that the drain line is plugged or the coils are frozen. Both of these things can get worse if you don't fix them.
  • The thermostat isn't working
    Your system can't control the temperature well if your thermostat won't respond or show the right information.

We work on all the big brands, such as Trane, Carrier, Goodman, Mitsubishi, Lennox, Rheem, and more.

Signs That Your AC Needs Repair

Don't dismiss the indicators that your air conditioner isn't keeping your home cool. If you see any of the following, please call us:

  • Vents blowing warm air
    Your system is working, but you're still sweating. This is usually because of difficulties with the refrigerant or airflow.
  • Airflow that is weak or unequal
    Bad ventilation consumes energy and makes some spaces uncomfortable.
  • Noises or vibrations that don't make sense
    Strange noises could mean that parts are loose, there is an electrical problem, or the motor is deteriorating.
  • The AC won't turn on or keeps shutting off
    This symptom indicates that your system is either overworked or experiencing an electrical or mechanical problem.
  • Water is leaking around the apartment
    Leaks can ruin your home and show that your drain is clogged or your coil is frozen.
  • The thermostat isn't working
    Your system can't chill your room adequately if the thermostat isn't operating.
  • The system runs all the time or in short cycles
    Inefficient functioning often leads to excessive energy bills and unnecessary wear and tear.

If you don't fix tiny problems, they can turn into big ones that cost a lot of money. We'll quickly find the problem and fix your AC.

What Makes These AC Problems Happen?

Most of the time, AC problems are caused by things that can be fixed. Here are some of the most common ones:

  • Air filters that are blocked
    Dirty filters block airflow, which makes your AC work harder and less efficiently.
  • Refrigerant leaks or not enough refrigerant
    Your AC won't be able to cool your home properly if the refrigerant levels aren't right, and leaks can hurt your system.
  • Bad capacitors or other electrical parts
    Capacitors make it easier for your AC to start and run properly. Your system stops working when they do.
  • Thermostat not working
    If your thermostat is broken, your system won't be able to read temperatures correctly or turn on at all.
  • Clogged condensate drain line
    If the drainpipe is clogged, it can cause water to back up, harming your property or your AC.
  • Dirty condenser coils or frozen evaporator coils
    Dirty or frozen coils make the cooling system less effective and can cause it to break down.
  • Compressor or fan motor that is getting old
    Worn-out compressors and motors are a common source of inadequate cooling, unusual noises, and complete system failure.

Why Should You Fix Your AC Before Buying a New One?

Not all AC problems mean you need to buy a new one. A quick, cheap repair can often get your air conditioner operating again and make it last longer. We at AES Heating & Air Conditioning believe in giving honest advice and transparent answers. We'll look at your system, tell you exactly what's wrong, and help you decide if getting it fixed is the best option.

  • If your system is less than 10–12 years old, it usually makes sense to fix it.
    Most air conditioners last between 12 and 15 years. If yours is still in that time frame, fixing it is usually the cheapest thing to do.
  • The issue is little, like a bad capacitor or a leak in the refrigerant.
    Most of the time, we can quickly and cheaply fix small problems like worn-out electrical parts or low refrigerant levels.
  • Your energy bills haven't gone up by much.
    A repair will keep your system running well without raising your monthly costs.
  • When your AC is working right, it still cools your home.
    If your system functions well after it starts, fixing small flaws can bring back reliable comfort without having to replace the whole thing.

When You Need to Get a New AC

Sometimes, the best long-term investment is to just get a new air conditioner. A new system that uses less energy can lower your power bills, cut down on failures, and keep your home cool and comfortable all year long.

  • If your system is more than 12 to 15 years old, replacement is the superior option.
    Older AC systems don't work as well and are more likely to break down, which costs a lot of money. In the long term, upgrading saves money.
  • AC stops working a lot
    Calling for repairs often costs a lot of money and makes the service less reliable.
  • Even after repairs, the air conditioning system struggles to keep your home cool.
    If your current air conditioning system cannot keep your area comfortable even after regular maintenance, it may be time to consider getting a new one.
  • The controls or lines for the refrigerant are old or broken.
    It is often easier to replace something than to fix it when there are major refrigerant or electrical problems.
  • Your bills for energy keep going up.
    If your cooling bills are going up without a clear reason, your aging AC might be working too hard and squandering energy.

We'll help you choose the best solution for you, with transparent prices, trusted brands, and no surprises.
