View All FAQsThe most common causes of an AC running without cooling are low refrigerant due to a leak, a dirty or frozen evaporator coil, a failed compressor, a tripped breaker on the outdoor unit, or a failed capacitor preventing the compressor or fan from starting. Call us for a diagnosis at 732-681-0856.
A frozen AC coil is most commonly caused by restricted airflow — a clogged filter is the first thing to check — or low refrigerant. Turn the system off and let it thaw completely (usually a few hours) with the fan running on auto to circulate air. Then replace the filter and restart. If it freezes again, call for service, low refrigerant requires a professional diagnosis and repair.
Yes, banging sounds from an AC system are not normal and typically indicate a loose or broken component, a failing compressor, or debris in the outdoor unit. Turn the system off and call for service to prevent further damage.
Repair costs vary significantly based on the type of failure and parts needed. Simple repairs, capacitor or contactor replacement, are relatively inexpensive. Compressor replacement on older equipment is a major repair whose cost often approaches replacement. We diagnose the problem and provide a clear estimate before any work begins.
