Many things can contribute to a Charlotte air conditioning system that runs poorly. In the Carolinas our AC system can run from April until the end of October, which is 7 months of hard work 24/7.
Things that can contribute to NO COOLING are:
- Dirty Air Filter
- Dirty Evaporator Coil
- Dirty Condenser
- Low Refrigerant
All of these are due to lack of maintenance - a Charlotte air conditioning system more than 3 years old should be maintained every year.
Things that contribute to a broken cooling system can be:
- Low Refrigerant
- Old Contactor
- Low or swollen Capacitor
- Leaking
These items are a little more involved but can be found in regular air conditioning maintenance and service.
The heart & soul of your Charlotte air conditioning system is the compressor. It depends on all of the items to work at peak efficiency with minimum effort.
Take care of the small things & it will extend the life of your system.
