Most people living in the Vegas area have an AC system that makes the summer months bearable. Without AC, we would all be miserable. This is why when something causes that AC system to stop working, most people are pretty anxious to get someone out to fix it as soon as possible. When it comes to AC units, there are several different things that can go wrong. However, there are a few different repairs that are happening more frequently than others. Hal Mechanical is here to talk about what repairs are the most common during the summer.

AC Repairs We See the Most

There are definitely some repairs that are a problem more often than others. Here are some of the most frequent problems that we see in homeowners.
– AC Compressor Problems: The compressor in your AC unit is a part that cause significant problems for your unit if it isn’t working properly. It is often referred to as the heart of the unit because it is responsible for pumping the refrigerant throughout the system to cool the house. If you have a compressor issue, it can be difficult to diagnose and repair.
– AC Electrical Issues: If your AC system is constantly causing the circuit breaker in your home to trip, it could be due to an electrical issue that needs to be addressed. Electrical issues can also put your home at risk of an electrical fire as well.
– Refrigerant Leaks: The refrigerant in your unit is found in a closed unit. This means that it should never have to be refilled. The only time your refrigerant gets low is when there is a leak somewhere. Leaks are something that can develop with time as your unit ages and are a common problem.
– AC Fan Issues: When you have an issue with the fan in your unit, it can keep your system from properly circulating the air in your home and expelling the heat from the condenser. Problems that are commonly fan related include worn belts, motor failure and a lack of lubrication. These problems are easily detected when you are having regular maintenance performed on your unit.
– Clogged Drains: Many people don’t realize that their AC system actually removes quite a bit of moisture from the air in their home. This moisture has to be drained away from the unit through the condensate drain. If this drain is clogged, it can cause significant problems as water starts to pool around and inside the unit.
