When the summer heat is at its peak, there’s nothing more frustrating than an air conditioner that’s blowing, but not cooling. If you’re experiencing this issue, you’re not alone. There are several reasons why your AC might be blowing air that’s not cold. Let’s dive into some of the most common causes.
Top Reasons Why Your AC Unit Might Not Be Blowing Cold Air
Incorrect Thermostat Settings
One of the simplest reasons for your AC not blowing cold air is incorrect thermostat settings. Ensure your thermostat is set to “cool” and “auto.” When the thermostat’s “auto” setting is used, the fan only operates when the unit works to achieve your desired temperature.
Dirty or Clogged Air Filter
Air filters play a crucial role in your AC’s performance. Over time, these filters can become clogged with dust, dirt, and other debris, restricting airflow and causing air conditioning systems to work harder than necessary. This can result in your AC blowing warm air. Replacing or cleaning your air filters helps maintain your AC’s efficiency.
Low Refrigerant Levels
Your central air conditioner needs refrigerant to cool the air. If the refrigerant levels are low, possibly due to a refrigerant leak, your AC might be unable to produce cool air effectively. If you suspect this is the case, it’s best to have a professional check your system, as handling refrigerant requires special training.
Faulty Compressor
The compressor is the heart of your AC system. It circulates the refrigerant between the indoor and outdoor units. If the compressor malfunctions, your AC might produce unwanted warm indoor air. Compressor issues are complex and often require professional diagnosis and repair.
Blocked Condenser or Evaporator Coil
The condenser coils, located in the outdoor unit of your AC, release the heat removed from your home’s air. If these coils are dirty or blocked by debris, they won’t be able to release heat effectively, which can impact your AC’s capacity to blow cold air.
Aging or Worn-Out System
A central air conditioning system typically lasts for about 15 to 25 years. If your system is nearing the end of its lifespan, it may not be able to cool your home as effectively as it once did. In such cases, it might be time to consider replacing your system.
Remember, regular maintenance is key to keeping your AC running efficiently and effectively. If your AC is blowing but not cold, don’t sweat it. At Good Guys Heating and Cooling we’re here to help. Our team of experienced and licensed HVAC technicians is ready to diagnose and resolve your issue.
