Are High Energy Bills a Sign That Your Air Conditioner Needs Servicing?

Are you spending more money on energy bills for your home than you have in the past? If so, this is one sign that it may be time for you to have your air conditioner serviced.

Most air conditioners, like your furnace, need to be serviced at least once a year to keep them running smoothly and efficiently but unfortunately, many people neglect the proper care and maintenance of their A/C because they get busy, or forget about them, and the result is either poor performance or higher energy bills than normal.

Things That Can Go Wrong with An Air Conditioner

Like any machine, your air conditioner relies on a wide variety of parts and accessories to keep it running smoothly and when any of its internal systems begin to go out, the result is poor performance.

If your air conditioner is not currently running as it should, some of the problems that it’s experiencing could include the following:

  • Low refrigerant.
  • Refrigerant overcharge.
  • Holes in the A/C duct.
  • Dirty air conditioner coil.
  • Faulty installation.
  • Dirty air filter.

When Your Air Conditioner Is Acting “Weird”

Besides the things mentioned above that could be going wrong with your air conditioner, some of the other signs that your A/C is in serious need of repair include the following:

Weird Smells – If a burning smell is coming from you A/C unit this is a sign that it should be serviced immediately because your air conditioner is actually overheating, and there is something that’s actually burning inside of your A/C.

Don’t wait until you see smoke! Turn off your air conditioner and call a quailed air conditioner repair company today.

Strange Sounds – Like any appliance, your A/C will make some degree of noise that you’re most likely familiar with but, if your air conditioner starts sounding louder than normal this is a sign that you should have it checked out immediately before you’re A/C unit stops working.

Weak Air Flow – Last of all, but most important, if your air conditioner doesn’t have the same airflow as it once did, this is another sign that it’s in serious need of maintenance because an air conditioner with weak air flow means that it has to stay on longer resulting in higher energy bills for you.
