Frequently Asked Questions About AC Repair

Is your AC unit not cooling properly? Are you hearing strange noises or noticing unusual smells? Find answers to common questions about AC repair and connect with qualified HVAC technicians in UK.

Why is my AC fan not spinning?

The cause of a malfunctioning AC fan needs professional diagnosis. Here are some possibilities:
  • Faulty capacitor:
    • The capacitor gives the motor a boost to start. A faulty capacitor can prevent the fan from starting.
  • Malfunctioning motor:
    • The fan motor itself might have failed.
  • Worn-out belt:
    • If your AC has a belt-driven fan, a worn or broken belt can prevent it from spinning.
  • Electrical issues:
    • Wiring problems or a tripped circuit breaker can cut off power to the fan.
  • Frozen unit:
    • Ice buildup can block the fan blades..
Contact an AC repair service to fix a fan problem. Don't attempt electrical repairs yourself.

What is the difference between a central AC and a heat pump?

The key difference between a central AC and a heat pump lies in their functionality. A central AC system only cools, relying on a separate furnace for heating during colder months. A heat pump, on the other hand, provides both heating and cooling. It can extract heat from the outdoor air even in relatively cold temperatures (down to a certain point), providing efficient heating. In summer, it reverses the process to cool your home. Heat pumps are often a more energy-efficient choice than a separate AC and furnace, especially in mild to moderate climates.

How can I improve my AC's energy efficiency?

Boosting your AC's energy efficiency can lead to significant savings. Consider these tips:
  • Regular maintenance:
    • Schedule professional tune-ups annually to optimize performance.
  • Programmable thermostat:
    • Automate temperature adjustments based on your schedule.
  • Seal air leaks:
    • Caulk and weatherstrip windows and doors to reduce air leakage.
  • Proper insulation:
    • Ensure adequate insulation to minimize heat transfer.
  • Ventilation:
    • Improve ventilation to remove excess heat and humidity.
  • Energy-efficient appliances:
    • Choose appliances with the Energy Star label to reduce overall energy load.
  • HVAC zoning:
    • Consider zoning to independently cool different areas.

What is a SEER rating?

SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. It measures the cooling output of an air conditioner over a typical cooling season, divided by the energy it consumes in watt-hours. In simpler terms, it tells you how efficiently an AC unit converts electricity into cooling power. A higher SEER rating signifies a more energy-efficient unit, resulting in lower energy consumption and utility bills. Modern air conditioners typically have SEER ratings ranging from 13 to 26. When replacing your AC, look for a unit with a high SEER rating to maximize energy savings over the long run.
