Refrigerant Leaks
One of the most common problems with air conditioners is low refrigerant levels due to a leak in the system. Refrigerant leaks are usually caused by corrosion or wear-and-tear on the hoses and seals connecting the various parts of your system. Low refrigerant levels will lead to reduced cooling power and higher energy bills. When you call an AC technician at DVAC Heating & Air, they can identify and repair any leaks in your refrigeration system so it can work at peak efficiency again.

Clogged Condensate Drain Line
Another problem that homeowners often experience with their air conditioners is clogged condensate drain lines. These lines can become blocked due to excess moisture in the air or dirt and dust accumulation over time. If left untreated, a clogged condensate drain line can lead to water leaking into your home, creating mold growth and structural damage if not taken care of quickly. A regular air conditioning service in Everett, WA can help keep it free of debris and ensure it’s draining properly again.

Frozen Coils
Frozen coils occur when there’s not enough airflow inside the unit’s casing due to dirt buildup on its filters or when the fans are being blocked by debris or leaves outside of it. This lack of adequate airflow prevents heat generated within the unit’s compressor from escaping, causing cold spots to form on its exterior surfaces that eventually freeze up. When you call an AC technician, they’ll inspect both your outdoor compressor unit’s coil fins and interior fan blades for signs of damage resulting from ice buildup. Shortly after the technician will clean them so they don’t block airflow ever again!

Dirty Air Filters
Air filters are a vital part of your AC system. They help to remove dust and other particles from the air, which enhances indoor air quality. However, if air filters are not cleaned or replaced regularly, they can become clogged with dirt and debris. This can cause your AC system to work harder to cool your home, leading to higher energy bills and decreased efficiency.

Faulty Capacitors
Capacitors are electrical components that help to start the compressor in your AC system. If your system is having trouble starting or making a humming sound, it could be a sign of a faulty capacitor. Capacitors can fail over time and they may need to be replaced. Our technicians can quickly diagnose and replace faulty capacitors in your air conditioner. This will help ensure that your AC is starting and running smoothly, and it will also help extend your system’s lifespan.
