Glendale’s Heat & Dust: Is Your AC at Risk?

AC Trouble? How to Tell If You Need Repairs

1. Performance Issues

  • Inconsistent Cooling/Heating: Warm air when set to cool (or vice versa), or uneven temperatures between rooms, may point to compressor issues, low refrigerant, or sensor problems.  
  • Weak Airflow: Even after changing filters, poor airflow could signal fan motor failure, ductwork issues, or a failing compressor.  
  • Slow Cooling: The system runs but struggles to reach the desired temperature.  
  • High Humidity: A humid indoor atmosphere might indicate that your air conditioner isn’t efficiently reducing moisture.  

2. Sensory Clues

  • Strange Noises: Loud banging, grinding, or screeching often indicates serious mechanical problems (e.g., loose parts, motor failure). Minor rattling may be fixable.  
  • Unpleasant Smells: Musty odors suggest mold or bacteria growth; burning smells may signal electrical issues.  
  • Leaks or Moisture Buildup: While condensation is normal, pooling water or refrigerant leaks require immediate attention.  
  • Frozen Coils: Ice on the coils often means restricted airflow or a refrigerant leak, which can damage the compressor.

3. Operational Problems

  • Frequent Cycling: The unit turns on and off more often than usual.  
  • Overheating: The AC runs non stop without cooling or shuts down unexpectedly.

Key Factors in the Repair vs. Replace Decision

✅ Consider Repair If:

– The unit is under 10 years old.  

– The repair cost is less than 50% of a new system’s price.  

– The issue is minor (e.g., a capacitor or thermostat replacement). 

🔄 Consider Replacement If:

– The AC is over 10–15 years old (aging systems lose efficiency and reliability).  

– Repairs are frequent or costly (e.g., a single repair exceeds 50% of a new unit’s cost).  

Increasing energy costs could be a sign that your system’s efficiency is deteriorating.  

– It uses outdated refrigerant (R-22), which is expensive and phased out.  

– There are safety risks (electrical hazards, refrigerant leaks).  

A good rule of thumb: If the unit’s age multiplied by the repair cost exceeds $5,000, replacement is usually the better investment.
