Common Air Conditioner Repairs in Sugarhouse UT:
Low Refrigerant
One of the most common air conditioner problems in Sugarhouse is low refrigerant. In most cases when an air conditioner is low on refrigerant, there is a leak. A qualified technician will search and find the source of the leak. Once found the leak should be repaired before attempting to adjust the refrigerant. This will often include recovering the refrigerant and braising the leaking copper refrigerant line. Once the leak is tested and fixed a refrigerant adjustment can be performed.
Plugged Coils
A dirty evaporative coil will restrict airflow and can cause a central air system to freeze up. These coils are difficult to access and have delicate fins that are easy to damage. A chemical cleaner is often used. This type of central air repair should only be performed by a qualified technician. Once cleaned care should be taken to avoid this issue in the future. A good filtration system is key.
Bad Capacitors
Capacitors are used to phase the electricity to the compressor and to the outdoor fan. They tend to go out on the hottest days of the year. Often a bad capacitor is a sign that there is another issue with your central air system. Our technicians at Express Home Services can check the MFD of your central air capacitor to determine if it is within the recommended manufacturing setting.
Compressor does not come on
The compressor pumps refrigerant through the condenser, refrigerant lines, and evaporative coil. When a compressor does not come on it can often be an issue with one of the components in your air conditioner. If a compressor is bad we recommend the replacement of your central air system unless the compressor is still under warranty.
