Air Conditioning Issues to Address Before the Hot Summer Months


Living in South Florida, we all know what type of heat the summer season can bring.  So it's extremely important to have reliable air conditioning.  During these chilly winter months, you can easily look over your air conditioning system to ensure it runs properly  leading up to the hot summer months.

Here are some common issues associated with air conditioning systems:

No Cold Air Blowing-  This is a common issue with air conditioning systems in Fort Lauderdale that are place at the foot of a home.  Sometimes dirt and debris can get sucked through the vents and sucked into the condenser causing issues with the unit.  Additionally, a dirty AC filter can cause this common occurance as well.  Cleaning the filter to ensure no debirs buildup is essential.  If you still notice no cold air, call your local air conditioning repair company.

Loud Air Handler- This issue usually requires a service call because the technician will need to dive into the air conditioner itself.  Old air conditioning units may have a belt that is loose or needs replacing, while newer units may have a bearing issue.

It's always a good idea to act quickly when an issue arises.  Small issues can turn into larger ones if neglected.  Call your local Fort Lauderdale Air conditioning repair companies to address any issues prior to the warmer months.
