Watch Out for Signs Your AC Is Failing
Another key to ensuring your air conditioner is ready for summer is to note anything unusual and fix it before it develops into a more significant problem and eventually failure. Here are some common symptoms telling you that your AC is in trouble.
- Short Cycling: When your system runs for three minutes or less, then shuts off.
- Lukewarm Air: If your AC isn’t putting out the cold air it once used to.
- Poor Airflow: If your AC doesn’t ‘feed’ the whole house adequately.
- Inconsistent Temperatures: If you notice some rooms colder than others.
- High Energy Bills: If your energy bills suddenly rise for no apparent reason.
- Unusual Sounds: Any popping or squealing sounds.

When Is It Better to Replace Your AC Versus Repairing It
We understand that most homeowners don’t want to shell out the money or deal with the hassle to replace an air conditioner. And, it’s easier and cheaper to fix the old unit than get a new one. So, why get a new one? Well, getting a new AC installation means you’re getting a new, more reliable system that will last longer and save you money. Also, if you’re throwing away money, keeping your old system running, you can save that by investing in a new unit. Lastly, if the cost to keep your old unit running is 50% or more than that of a new system, getting a new installation makes better sense.
If you’re still not sure what to do, call Anderson Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric and let us inspect your system and recommend the best course.
