5 Reasons Your Samsung Air Conditioning May Not be Cold

One of the most popular companies with an excellent industry reputation is Samsung air conditioning. Perth home and businesses often choose a Samsung system because of the high standard of quality and performance offered. Unfortunately, no system is perfect, so if your Samsung ducted air conditioning or split system units are not delivering cold enough air, here are five possible causes you may want to explore.

1. Your Air Filters are Dirty:

Every type of air conditioner has some form of air filter. These filters are used to trap particles of dust and debris that could compromise the performance of the system or contaminate your air quality. Unfortunately, when the filters become dirty, they can reduce airflow and prevent the system from working correctly. Blocked air filters can place a strain on the system, increasing the risk of a breakdown and increasing energy costs.

2. You Have a Blocked or Frozen Condenser:

Your condenser is a vital component of your air conditioning system. It is needed to produce cooled air into your home. If the condenser has become blocked or frozen, it will not be able to produce adequate airflow. Even dust and dirt can cause a blockage, so it is recommended that it should be regularly cleaned. Regular maintenance can also help to avoid the risk of your condenser freezing.

3. You Have a Refrigerant Leak:

One of the most common causes of air conditioning not being cold enough is a refrigerant leak. Your air conditioning system is optimised to run on a certain amount of refrigerant, and if you are losing some through even a minor leak, performance will be compromised. The leak needs to be traced and any lost refrigerant replaced to allow your system to return to proper performance.

4. You Have a Faulty Thermostat:

The thermostat is needed to communicate to the system when it needs to switch on and off. Unfortunately, if your thermostat has developed a fault, it could be sending incorrect signals to the condenser. Most modern thermostats will display a fault message in the event of a problem, but this is not always the case. If your air conditioner is not producing sufficient cool air, it could be worth checking your thermostat.

5. Your System Isn’t Sized Correctly:

Another common cause of air conditioners failing to properly cool a home is that it is not the correct size for the property. Many people make the assumption that a bigger system is better, but in many cases, this is a costly mistake. If the system is too large, it may frequently switch on and off, increasing wear and tear. Alternatively, if your system is too small, it may be under strain trying to produce sufficient cooled air. If your system was not sized by an experienced professional, it may be worth having the capacity checked as you may need an upgrade.
