Common Air Conditioner Problems(http://www.houkac.com/category/common­air­conditioner­problems/)Posted on August 12, 2015 (http://www.houkac.com/category/common­air­conditioner­problems/) by Prasoon Gupta(http://www.houkac.com/category/author/prasoon/)

There are some problems that arise in almost all the electronic products that you possess.Majority of the people employ technicians for even the simpler error / problems that arise. Byapplying the below mentioned steps you can eliminate the most common problems and ACmaintenance can be done without hiring a skilled mechanic thus saving you money.

Improper Operation: The first and foremost problem is improper operation. A host of peopletend to neglect the fact that the windows and doors of the rooms are open while the AC isrunning (http://houkac.com). Hence to maintain cooling atmosphere, it’s advised to keep allthe doors and windows shut so that the cooling doesn’t flow out.

Improper maintenance: Other common problems exist are faulty installation, poor serviceprocedures, and inadequate maintenance(http://energy.gov/energysaver/articles/maintaining­your­air­conditioner). Improper installationof a central air conditioner can result in leaky ducts and low airflow. It’s very important to

properly charge the refrigerant during installation as the performance and efficiency of the unitis directly vary with this procedure.Get an update as to what you need to brief before you hirea technician for the maintenance.

Buy high quality AC: Another important tip of AC maintenance (http://www.houkac.com/fort­worth­texas­air­conditioner­and­heating­repair­service­and­maintenance/)for Fort Worth(http://www.houkac.com/fort­worth­texas­air­conditioner­and­heating­repair­service­and­maintenance/) residents is to first buy a good quality air conditioner. Many manufacturersuse rugged, high quality products. If your air conditioner is not running smoothly, first check ifany circuit has broken or fuse has taken place.These are ideal scenarios which you all mighthave faced: On a hot summer afternoon due to high/ low voltage, central air conditioner’scompressor stops and the high­pressure limit switch may have tripped. You need to reset it bypushing the button, located in the access panel of the compressor.

Refrigerant Leaks: There are times when your air conditioner is low on refrigerant due toleakage. In this scenario you should call a trained technician who can fix it, test the repair, andthen charge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant. The efficacy of the AC can bemaintained when the refrigerant charge exactly matches the manufacturer’s specification andis adequately charged (neither undercharged nor overcharged).

Inadequate Maintenance: Make sure that your filters and air conditioning coils are clean, ifthere are dust particulates; it will affect the efficiency of the AC and will not work properly. It willput pressure on the compressor and fans are likely to fail prematurely.

Electric Control Failure: Another important aspect in the maintenance of the AC is to ensurethat the AC is not turned on and turned off frequently. In such a case, this puts pressure onthe compressor and fan controls can wear out.
