What Are The Most Common AC Problems Homeowners Face In Ottawa?

In Ottawa where I stay, the summertime brings much heat and wet air, so having an air conditioner is important for feeling comfortable at home. But just like other machines, the AC can have different problems after some while. We explore the usual problems with air conditioners that Ottawa homeowners face and ways to fix them. 

1)     Insufficient cooling

 

During the warm summers in Ottawa, many people often mention that their air conditioning doesn't cool properly. It might happen because of blocked filters, not enough cooling substance, or problems with the compressor part. Regularly changing filters and scheduling Air Conditioning Maintenance Ottawa can help prevent this issue.

 

2)     Frequent cycling on and off

 

When your air conditioner keeps turning on and off many times, it may show there is an issue with the temperature control device, a condenser coil that needs cleaning, or maybe the air conditioner size does not fit well for your house. If you get a professional from Eco Green Experts to look at and adjust the temperature control settings or clean the coil of dirt, this might fix the problem.

 

3)     Strange noises

 

Strange noises such as grinding, squealing, or knocking from your air conditioner might mean there are issues with the fan motor, compressor, or different parts. Not paying attention to these sounds could cause bigger problems; it's wise to contact AC Repair in Ottawa quickly.

 

4)     Leaking refrigerant

 

When refrigerant leaks, it makes the cooling less effective and can be a danger to the environment. If your air conditioner does not cool as well or you hear hissing noises, or see ice forming on it, an expert must repair the leak of refrigerant.

Any AC unit will have a condenser coil. The coil has to be inspected as it can easily get clogged when the unit is operational.

You may have to hire a professional team to conduct the coil maintenance at regular intervals. The professional team will also have to check the refrigerant level in the unit.
