Air Conditioner Repair Littleton CO

When your air conditioner kicks on, you expect relief from the intense Colorado summer heat, but a poorly functioning AC unit may not cool the air effectively. Your vents may blow warm air for various reasons. Inspect the following air conditioning components if your system fails to blow cool air:

• Thermostat: A faulty thermostat or improper setting may cause your AC to blow warm air. Ensure your thermostat has ample power and is set to an appropriate temperature before calling in professional technicians from 888 Heating. 
• Air filter: Remembering to change your air filter can be challenging, especially if you live a busy lifestyle, but a clogged filter can cause many issues, including inefficient cooling. You should change a standard air filter once per month, and top-quality filters need changing every three months on average. 
• Outdoor unit: Inspect your AC’s outdoor unit to check for obstructions and refrigerant leaks. You may be able to remove debris blocking the unit but leave refrigerant leak repairs to our expert team. 
• Evaporator coils: Air conditioners remove heat from interior air using evaporator coils, but dirty coils cannot absorb heat as efficiently. If you notice dust and debris buildup on the evaporator coil, a good cleaning may help resolve the issue. 
• Condenser coils: While evaporator coils absorb heat from the air inside your home, the condenser coil releases it into the air outside. You may also clean these coils to encourage more efficient cooling.

If you’re not comfortable inspecting your system or you identify an issue you can’t solve by yourself, call on 888 Heating to help. 

Your air conditioner may “sweat” water due to a clog in the drainage line. AC units create condensation as they run, but improper drainage leads to a buildup of too much water and inevitable leaking. 

While a good cleaning may stop the drip, our AC repair professionals can also check if your drain line was connected correctly and diagnose other problems that lead to water drips, such as iced-up coils. Poor airflow caused by clogged filters and other issues can cause coils to form layers of ice, which hinders the system’s ability to function.

Strange sounds, such as rattling, clicking, buzzing, or hissing noises, often indicate serious problems that require professional attention. If you notice odd sounds from your AC system, you may need a part replacement, compressor repair, or another service performed by industry pros. 

We recommend turning off your system to prevent further damage and calling our team at 888 Heating as soon as possible for prompt repair service.

A musty smell from your air conditioner may indicate a drainage issue or dirty coils. Both problems can lead to mildew, mold, and bacteria buildup, which causes an unpleasant “dirty sock” odor. 

Your unit may emit a burning smell due to a wiring issue. If you notice this type of odor, turn off your system immediately, and call the 888 Heating team to take a look. 

If your air conditioner fails to turn on when you need it, you can check a couple of things before calling us for professional air conditioner repair in Littleton, CO. First, check your thermostat’s settings. It may be set to an incorrect mode or to a higher temperature than intended. 

You should also check the breaker your AC system runs on to see if it has been tripped. Although a tripped breaker shouldn’t immediately cause concern, if it continues to happen, it could indicate a problem within your air conditioning system. 

Call our experts at 888 Heating if these checks did not solve the problem or your AC unit still does not turn on. Our team of industry professionals can diagnose the problem and provide the repairs you need.
