Tip: Repair Central A/C - Electric

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.
