Is Your AC Showing These Signs? Don’t Wait for a Florida Summer Breakdown

No AC system lasts forever, though a reliable, durable air conditioning unit can certainly seem like it will, lulling you into a false sense of security. 


With summer looming and Florida beginning to feel like the surface of the sun, you can’t afford to suffer a breakdown! Don’t wait until the last minute to call for spring air conditioning repair services in Florida homes for reliable cooling and energy savings. Look for these signs that your AC will need service soon.


Strange Noises

Your air conditioning should be relatively silent other than a gentle whooshing of air from the vents. You should never hear:

  • Buzzing: Electrical problems
  • Banging: Loose parts in the compressor
  • Bubbling: Slow refrigerant leak
  • Hissing: Severe refrigerant leak
  • Rattling: Failed electric motor mounts


If any of these sounds have just started recently, don’t wait to call for repair!


No Cold Air

In the heat of summer, you won’t want warm air coming from your vents. If the system can’t make cold air, it’s likely a sign that the compressor is failing or you have low refrigerant. If you have an older system that uses an outdated coolant, such as R-22, recharging the coolant could be as expensive as replacing failed parts.


Bad Smells

Typically, your AC will produce no odors whatsoever. Instead, it should actively help reduce smells in the home by filtering the air as it runs. Beware of a system that produces odors like:

  • Rotten Eggs: Possible natural gas leak
  • Mustiness: Mold or mildew growing
  • Electrical Burning: A short circuit in the electrical system


Rather than merely being annoying, these smells can indicate serious problems that need repair immediately.


Your System Is Costing You More Money

Between more frequent repair bills and increased energy usage, a system that’s on its last legs will start to eat into your budget. Older HVAC units will lose efficiency, start breaking down more often, and may need replacement before the summer heat hits.
