It can be frustrating when your AC runs but doesn’t cool your home. Here are three common reasons why this might happen:
1. Dirty Air Filters
A clogged air filter restricts airflow, making it hard for your AC to cool your home. When air can’t flow freely, your system has to work much harder, which can lead to other problems down the line. Dirty filters are a common issue, but luckily, they are also easy to fix. Regular maintenance can prevent this problem.
2. Low Refrigerant Levels
If your AC is low on refrigerant, it won’t cool properly. This is often due to a leak in the system. Refrigerant is the substance that your AC uses to remove heat from the air, so without enough of it, your AC can’t do its job. Running low on refrigerant can also cause other issues, such as freezing coils, which can damage your system over time. You’ll need a professional to check the refrigerant levels and fix any leaks.
3. Thermostat Issues
If the thermostat isn’t working correctly, your AC might run without cooling. Check if the thermostat is set to the right temperature and mode (cooling mode). Sometimes, the thermostat may need new batteries or a replacement. A malfunctioning thermostat can send incorrect signals to your AC unit, causing it to run improperly.
