This information will help clarify and answer some of the questions.
Common A/C problems: If your central air conditioning isn't performing up to par or isn't performing at all, here are some easy troubleshooting tips that you should try before contacting a Service Professional.
- If the compressor doesn't turn on, check the fuse and breaker.
- If it runs but doesn't cool, the refrigerant could be low.
If that's the case, call a service professional.
- Check to see if the condenser coils on both sides are dirty. If they are, brush and vacuum them. (This is a good idea to perform at least twice a season.)
- If the A/C is performing inefficiently (partial cooling), check to make sure the condenser is clean, also check to see if the filter is clean.
- If the water leaks at the furnace, it could be a clogged drainpipe from the evaporator coil pan. Check the pipe and clear it if it is clogged.
