Why Is My AC Running but Not Cooling?
In warmer seasons, we become more reliant on our air conditioning units. However, there are instances when our systems start to break down and fail to properly cool when they are running. At Gundlach’s, we are committed to providing Bakersfield, CA with unparalleled home performance services. A part of this is educating our customers. Here’s a quick breakdown explaining why your air conditioning unit may be running, but not cooling your property.
This problem can take form in two ways — sometimes there’s just no air coming from the ducts, while other people face the issue of the air just not being cool. If you are dealing with the latter situation, then the first step towards understanding why your air conditioning is not blowing cold air should be checking your thermostat. Be sure that it is set to the cool mode and that the temperature is turned down sufficiently. If you noticed that your thermostat was set to blow warmer air, then the fix is simple and you don’t need to hire any AC repair crew. If your thermostat appears to be working correctly, move on to the next step, because your AC unit may not be blowing any air whatsoever. Your next step should be checking the breaker box. If you see that a circuit breaker has been tripped, it is usually because the electrical system is too loaded. This can be due to a number of reasons, such as having several appliances running at once or using an extension cord that can’t handle the current load. If this is your problem, turning off some appliances may solve the issue until you can get a Gundlach’s technician to come out and take a look at your AC unit. Another cause for this problem could be that your AC unit is very old and needs a replacement. At Gundlach’s, we can provide you with AC services to assist you with this. If the blower belt is old and worn, it might not be providing enough power to the fan motor, resulting in your AC unit not blowing any air. A simple solution to this problem is to get the belt replaced. This is a service that can be provided by Gundlach’s Services. Our technicians can provide you with some of the best AC repairs and replacements in Bakersfield. If the refrigerant levels are low, it can cause the AC unit compressor to overheat, preventing the air from being cooled. If you have an older AC unit, it might be time for a tune-up, which can help increase the efficiency of your system and improve the refrigerant levels.
