Common AC Issues
Air conditioners work hard, especially during the summer, so it’s no surprise they are prone to specific issues as components wear out over time.
Some of the most common AC problems include:
- Refrigerant leaks: This can result in reduced cooling capacity and can cause harm to the environment. Fix leaks promptly and recharge the system with a certified professional.
- Dirty condenser coils: When dirt and grime accumulate on them, the system must exert more effort to expel heat, leading to increased wear and tear and decreased efficiency.
- Frozen evaporator coils: If there is a problem with the airflow and the coils become too cold, ice can accumulate on the outside. When that occurs, warm or no air will come from your AC system.
- Faulty fans: Worn belts, motor issues, or lack of lubrication can cause fan malfunction, which may block airflow and lead to the compressor overheating.
- Thermostat issues: Incorrect calibration or malfunctioning of the thermostat can sometimes cause the problem, affecting how the AC evaluates indoor temperatures.
- Worn contactor: This makes the electrical connection that starts the motors and compressor. If contactors are worn, they might not connect properly, preventing the motors from starting.
- Drainage problems: If the drain pan gets full or the drain line gets clogged, water can back up and damage your system.
If you notice any of these signs, contact us promptly for repairs. We can help restore comfort and prevent future complications.

What to Do If Your AC Stops Working
It can be a major inconvenience when your air conditioning system suddenly stops working.
There are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue before calling Albert's Heating & Air Conditioning Inc., including:
- Check your thermostat: Make sure to check your thermostat for any incorrect settings or malfunctions. Set it to “cool” and lower the temperature below the current room temperature.
- Inspect the circuit breaker: Power surges or electrical issues can trip the circuit breaker connected to your AC unit. Check your home’s electrical panel and reset the breaker if necessary.
- Examine the air filter: A clogged air filter can restrict airflow, causing the system to shut down due to overheated internal components. If the filter is dirty, replace it with a new one to see if that resolves the issue.
- Look for visible ice: If ice is present on the coils or any other part of the unit, switch off the system and allow it to thaw. The AC can freeze and stop working due to ice buildup.
- Clear debris around the outdoor unit: Remove any leaves, twigs, or other debris from the area. Blockages in the airflow can significantly reduce the system’s efficiency and effectiveness.
- Avoid adjusting the thermostat frequently: Constant changes to the thermostat can stress your air conditioning system, leading to malfunctions. Set a comfortable temperature and give the system time to reach it without frequent adjustments.
