Frequently Asked Questions
What's the most common sign of a refrigerant leak in my Arley home's AC?
The most common sign is your AC running constantly but not cooling your home effectively. You might also notice ice forming on the refrigerant lines or the indoor coil. Since refrigerant is essential for the cooling process, a leak means your system has to work much harder, leading to higher energy bills and potential compressor failure. If you suspect a leak, call us for prompt, professional leak detection and repair.
How can I protect my outdoor AC unit from coil corrosion in Alabama's humidity?
Regular professional maintenance is key. During a tune-up, we clean the condenser coils to remove dirt, pollen, and debris that trap moisture and accelerate corrosion. We also inspect the unit's protective coatings and the electrical components for early signs of rust. For extra protection, we can discuss options like coil coatings. Simple homeowner tips include keeping the area around the unit clear of plants and ensuring proper drainage to avoid standing water.
If my AC isn't cooling, should I try adding refrigerant myself?
No, you should never attempt to add refrigerant yourself. Refrigerant is a regulated substance that requires a licensed professional to handle safely and legally. Simply adding refrigerant without fixing the leak is a temporary fix that will fail again, wasting money and potentially causing further damage to the compressor. Our technicians are EPA-certified to accurately diagnose the leak's source, repair it, and recharge your system with the precise, factory-specified amount of refrigerant.
