As summer heats up, air conditioning units across the country are put to the test. Increased usage can reveal issues that were not apparent during cooler months. Recognizing the signs of a struggling A/C unit early can help you address problems before they escalate into costly repairs or necessitate a complete replacement. Here are some common signs that your A/C needs professional attention.
Blowing Warm Air
One of the clearest indicators that your A/C unit is malfunctioning is if it blows warm air while the thermostat is set to a cool temperature. To confirm this issue, try lowering the thermostat further and check if the vents continue to emit warm air. If they do, it’s time to call a professional to diagnose and fix the problem.
Increased Humidity
An air conditioner is designed not only to cool your home but also to regulate humidity levels. If you notice higher-than-normal humidity, such as condensation on mirrors or a general damp feeling in the air, your A/C unit might be failing. This could indicate a need for professional inspection and repair.
