Choose the symptom that best matches what you are experiencing. You do not need to diagnose the problem yourself.
What an air-conditioning repair visit includes
Your technician begins with the reported problem, then checks the related components to identify the cause and any conditions that may have contributed to the failure.
- Thermostat operation and system controls
- Electrical voltage, amp draw and safety components
- Capacitors, contactors, fan motors and compressor operation
- Filter condition, airflow, coils and condensate drainage
- Refrigerant pressures and temperatures when required
- Findings, readings and recommended repairs documented in your service file
Once the problem is identified, the technician explains the findings and provides the repair price for your approval.
Common air-conditioning repairs
The exact repair is determined after diagnosis. No repair proceeds until the work and price have been approved.

Outdoor unit hums but the fan does not turn
The outdoor unit is running or humming, but the fan remains still. Turn the system off to reduce the risk of further damage.

Air from the registers is not cold
The system runs for long periods but does not reach the thermostat setting, especially during hotter parts of the day.
-
Ice forms on the refrigerant line or indoor coil
Frost or ice appears on the insulated line outside or on the indoor coil above the furnace.
-
Water collects near the furnace
Water appears around the indoor equipment, or the system repeatedly shuts down through the drain safety switch.

The air conditioner trips the breaker during startup or after running briefly. Do not repeatedly reset it.

Outdoor unit rattles or screeches
A new metallic, grinding or high-pitched noise comes from the outdoor equipment.
