Common Residential Air Conditioning Problems
Air conditioners tend to be reliable systems, but even with proper maintenance, normal wear and aging will eventually lead to problems. Some of the most common include:
- The system fails to turn on: This can be caused by a tripped breaker, a tripped pressure switch, or an overheated compressor, as well as incorrect thermostat settings, a failed start capacitor, or a damaged compressor.
- Poor cooling performance: The air filter may be clogged, there may be obstructions in the ducts or vents, or the refrigerant level may not be correct.
- Unusual noises: Tapping or thudding may indicate a damaged belt in the air handler. Whining or screaming may indicate a damaged compressor. Buzzing may indicate a damaged start capacitor or electrical problem.
- Strange smells: A burning smell or smoke may indicate an electrical problem. A musty odor may indicate moisture problems or mold growth.
- Frozen evaporator: This can be caused by clogged air filters, duct obstructions, a dirty condenser, or incorrect refrigerant levels.
Some problems can be simply fixed by resetting the breakers, replacing the air filter, or correcting airflow problems like blocked vents or obstructed ducts.
If the problem is more serious, it’s best to call an HVAC expert for emergency residential AC repair as soon as possible to avoid further damage to your air conditioning system.

AC Repair FAQs
What is considered an AC emergency?
An air conditioning emergency would be a situation where a delay in AC repairs could seriously harm your home or your family. For example, if you have vulnerable people in your home, such as the young, the ill, or the elderly, then losing AC on a hot day can be dangerous.
Do I need to clean my AC coils?
You may need to clean your AC coils if they get dirty quickly. Dirty coils can lead to poor energy transfer and freezing coils. If your coils don’t seem visibly dirty between annual maintenance visits, don’t worry about it.
Why is my AC running but not cooling?
Your air conditioner’s fan might still be blowing, but you might have issues with the heat exchangers and refrigerant lines that move heat around to produce cold air. You could also have the opposite problem—the cooling systems are working, but you have blocked ducts or a dead blower.
How long do AC repairs take?
It depends on the nature of the problem, whether the parts and tools needed are readily available, how accessible your system is, and how busy the team is. Technicians can have many repairs done within hours, but circumstances vary.
How often should AC be tuned up?
You want at least one professional tune-up per year with regular use of your air conditioner, ideally in the spring, so you’ll have a system in top condition when it gets hot. If you use a heat pump for heating and cooling, you might need two visits per year due to the added usage.
