Most AC systems need professional maintenance once a year, ideally in late spring before the cooling season begins. This timing lets you catch potential problems before you’re relying on your system daily. During maintenance, technicians clean components, check refrigerant levels, inspect electrical connections, and test system performance. If your system is older than 10 years or runs heavily during summer months, you might benefit from twice-yearly service. Regular maintenance typically prevents about 85% of AC breakdowns and helps your system run more efficiently, which keeps your energy bills lower.
Watch for these common warning signs: your system isn’t cooling evenly throughout your home, it’s running constantly but not reaching the set temperature, you hear unusual noises like grinding or squealing, or you notice higher energy bills without increased usage. Other red flags include weak airflow from vents, moisture or ice around the unit, and strange odors when the system runs. If your system is short-cycling (turning on and off frequently), that’s also a sign something’s wrong. Don’t ignore these symptoms—early repairs are almost always less expensive than waiting until the system fails completely.
The age and condition of your system are key factors. If your AC is less than 10 years old and the repair cost is under half the price of replacement, repair usually makes sense. Replacement often provides better long-term value for systems over 15 years old, especially those that need frequent repairs or use R-22 refrigerant. Also consider efficiency—older systems typically use much more energy than modern units. A good rule of thumb: if your annual repair costs are approaching 50% of a new system’s cost, it’s time to replace it. An honest HVAC contractor will help you weigh repair versus replacement based on your specific situation.
Several issues can cause this problem. A dirty air filter is the most common culprit—it restricts airflow and makes your system work harder while cooling less effectively. Low refrigerant levels, often from a leak, will also prevent proper cooling. Dirty condenser coils outside can’t release heat efficiently, and blocked or leaky ductwork reduces the cool air reaching your rooms. The issue is as simple as a thermostat problem or incorrect settings. While you can check and replace your air filter, most other causes require professional diagnosis and repair to avoid damaging your system further.
First, check your thermostat settings and make sure it’s set to “cool” with the temperature below your current room temperature. Check your circuit breaker—AC systems sometimes trip breakers, especially during high-demand periods. Look at your air filter and replace it if it’s dirty, as severely clogged filters can cause systems to shut down. If these steps don’t solve the problem, turn off your system and call for professional service. Don’t keep trying to restart a system that’s not working—you could cause additional damage that makes repairs pricier.
Start with regular filter changes—clean filters improve airflow and efficiency significantly. Keep your outdoor unit clear of debris, plants, and obstructions, maintaining at least two feet of clearance around it. Use a programmable thermostat to avoid cooling an empty house, and consider setting it a few degrees higher when you’re away. Seal air leaks around windows and doors to keep cool air inside. Close blinds or curtains during the hottest part of the day to reduce heat gain. Schedule annual professional maintenance to keep your system running at peak efficiency. These steps can reduce your cooling costs by 15-20% while extending your equipment’s lifespan.
