Short cycling is a common issue here, often caused by an oversized unit, a dirty air filter restricting airflow, or a failing thermostat. It puts severe strain on your system, leading to higher bills and breakdowns. Lakeside Mechanical's technicians specialize in diagnosing the root cause—whether it's a simple filter change or a more complex refrigerant or electrical issue—to get your system running in longer, more efficient cycles.

If you notice weak airflow, ice on the coils, or your system isn't cooling properly, you may have a leak. It's important to call a professional like Lakeside Mechanical right away.
