Faulty Motors:
Motors can go bad for a number of reasons. Once a motor in your unit stops, your unit will stop.
Faulty Compressor:
Your compressor is a main component of your air conditioner. The system requires your compressor to run. Prevent issues by keeping it clean.
Faulty Thermostat:
Sometimes, after a while, thermostats can simply go bad. This may not be all negative though. Technology has really stepped up its game in the thermostat world
Low Refrigerant:
This is also a rather large issue because refrigerant is what creates the cool air that you feel coming from your vents. Although it’s not supposed to leave the system, sometimes you can spring a leak. In the event that this happens, you may see ice form on your coils.
Not sure if you should repair or replace? If your system is 12 years of age or older, you should replace. Why? Because there are way more efficient units you can upgrade to that will ultimately save you money on operating costs.
