However, before your unit incurs irreversible damage leading to AC unit replacement, there is a minor repair you can handle on your own to ensure that your AC is always running at optimal capacity. Here are some of why your AC is not cooling and how to address the repairs.

Air Filters Need Cleaning

Over time, the air filters in your AC are bound to accumulate dirt and debris, which is among the most common causes of insufficient cooling. The buildup of these foreign materials can cause the thermostat to malfunction since the dirt prevents the circulation of cool and warm air in the ducts. This issue can be corrected by following the manufacturer’s instructions on filter removal and cleaning them with a microfiber cloth. If you prefer a more hands-off approach, we recommend talking to our experts at Rooter Hero Plumbing for efficient cleaning and other AC repair services.

The Wrong Settings

Technology has revolutionized all the vital aspects of human life, and air conditioning is not an exception. This has led to modern thermostats, which come with more adjustable settings and controls. All this new tech can be a lot for most homeowners to get used to, and you can accidentally change the settings of your AC, causing it to blow hot air. The manual is a great place to start if you want to reverse the effects of the changes made to your AC settings. If this seems too complicated, you can switch it to Auto mode to see if everything returns to normal.

An Unclean Outdoor AC Unit

There are many destructive agents outdoor, which can compromise the efficiency and functionality of your outdoor AC unit. It is easy for debris or dirt to affect how your air conditioning functions, both outside and inside your home. Since your outdoor AC unit pumps air into your home that is reabsorbed by the indoor AC, dust particles can block the condenser responsible for cooling warm air, rendering your unit ineffective. Rooter Hero Plumbing can assess the severity of damage to your condenser and other vital components to determine if AC repair is an option.
