What To Do If the AC Unit Is Making Strange Noises?

If one has ever been resting at home on a warm day in Ottawa, and suddenly is surprised by unfamiliar noises from the air conditioner, then it's not just them. Air conditioners can make many different sounds that suggest various problems. 

Turn off your AC unit

 

When you hear strange sounds, the safest first thing to do is to switch off your air conditioning. If it's still on while there might be a problem, it can do more harm and make expensive repairs necessary. After it is turned off, take a little time to check the unit by looking at it. Look for clear problems like parts that are not fitted properly or pieces of rubbish that might be making the noise.

Listen for electrical issues

 

Buzzing or humming sounds usually show there are electrical faults, which are very risky to fix alone. If you think there's an electrical problem, you must switch off the machine and ask a special HVAC expert from Eco Green Experts for help.

 

Call a Professional

If you have done some simple fixing and the noise keeps going, or if you do not feel comfortable doing these checks, then it's time to call a professional. Air Conditioning Service Ottawa can find the problem and tell you the best thing to do.

 

Preventative maintenance

 

To prevent future problems, it is good to set up regular check-ups for your air conditioner. Doing inspections and tune-ups every year can help find small issues before they become big trouble. AC Installation Ottawa can also help you set up the unit properly.
