Common Signs Your AC Needs Repair

When an air conditioner begins to fail, it rarely stops working instantly. Instead, it offers several clear warning signs. Recognizing these symptoms early allows you to address a minor issue before it escalates into a major, expensive breakdown.

These are the most frequent warning signs we see:

Blowing warm air. This is the number one complaint. It could be as simple as a wrong thermostat setting or a filthy filter. More seriously, it often indicates low refrigerant levels or a failing compressor.
Water leaks or puddles. If you notice water pooling around your indoor air handler, your condensate drain line is likely clogged. The water has nowhere to go and is overflowing the drain pan.
Musty or sour smells. This odor, especially when the AC first kicks on, is a direct result of a clogged drain line. You are smelling the stagnant water, mold, and bacteria growing inside your system.
Ice on the coils. Finding ice or frost on your indoor evaporator coils may seem strange, but it is a common sign of a problem. It means either airflow is restricted (check your filter), or the system is low on refrigerant.
System shuts down randomly. If your AC turns off unexpectedly, it is often a safety switch. Many units have a float switch in the drain pan that shuts off the power if it detects that water is about to overflow.

The Mystery of the Refrigerant Leak

Refrigerant systems, such as those using R-410A, are frequently misunderstood. Many homeowners mistakenly believe that the refrigerant is a fuel that is depleted over time. This is incorrect; your AC's refrigerant system operates as a sealed loop. The refrigerant should never run low or require "topping off".

If your system's charge is low, it confirms the presence of a leak. These leaks are often tiny, resulting from vibrations, physical damage, or corrosion on the coils.

The most common indicators of a leak include the system blowing warm air or ice forming on the evaporator coils. Simply adding more refrigerant without addressing the leak is only a temporary, costly fix, which is also harmful to the environment. The proper method is to locate and repair the source of the leak and then charge the system accurately. Operating an AC with a low refrigerant charge is highly inefficient and risks overheating and failure of the compressor, which is the system's most expensive component.
