Why Is My AC Not Blowing Cold Air?

How To Keep Your System Running Smoothly

Now that summer is here and the weather is heating up, you’re going to be relying on your air conditioning to keep everyone in your New England home cool and comfortable. That can’t happen if your AC isn’t blowing cold air. If you’re not getting adequate cooling from your central air or ductless mini-split system, Lombardi Energy Services can help.

5 Reasons Your AC Might Not Be Working

There are a couple things that could be going wrong if your AC isn’t blowing cold air. Here are a few common problems:

1. Your AC is leaking refrigerant or doesn’t have enough refrigerant.
2. Your AC’s filters are dirty or clogged.
3. There is a problem with your AC’s evaporator coil or condenser.
4. Your AC has blocked or clogged registers.
5. Your thermostat isn’t working properly.

Some of the problems outlined above can be easy to fix yourself (like putting new batteries in your thermostat if it takes batteries). Other problems, like a leak, can be difficult to identify and/or address, and are best dealt with by an HVAC professional.

Maintenance Matters

The best way to ensure that you don’t end up with an air conditioning system that isn’t blowing cold air it to get regular maintenance. And you don’t want to wait until your AC lets you down on a really hot day. Now is a better time to get maintenance for your AC.
