What are the common AC repairs?

Author: Airconservicing Singapore

Air conditioners are complicated mechanical systems with many working parts. Good maintenance will help prevent AC problems, but a system may still malfunction over the course of a cooling season. Below are some common AC repair issues and their fixes

Refrigerant leaks.

The lines transporting refrigerant through the system can leak, causing refrigerant to spill out and less pressure to complete the cooling process. To solve the issue, your air conditioner repair technician will diagnose the source of the leak and fix it to prevent further issues. Your AC system will be recharged so the appropriate amount of refrigerant is added to the system.

Drainage problems.

The cooling process produces condensation that needs to exit the system. Your Aircon is equipped with a condensate drain line and drip plan to handle the flow of moisture. If these components become clogged with algae or obstructions, or are damaged, moisture can back up into the system, causing humidity problems within your home and damage to your air conditioner. Your technician will clear the clog or repair components so moisture properly exits your air conditioning system.

Frozen condenser coils.

The air conditioners condenser coils can freeze up, preventing your system from cooling. This typically happens when there is poor airflow through the unit, caused by obstructions such as dirty filters or debris surrounding the outdoor unit. Low refrigerant levels may also be the cause. Your technician will diagnose the cause and correct it, deicing your coils so the cooling process can flow smoothly again.
