Common Air Duct Problems in Summer

Green Pro Cleaning Helps You Diagnosis Air Duct Problems That You Can Experience During Summer

As the summer starts to approach and the days get hotter and hotter, it can be challenging to think about the things that should be checked out on your air conditioning unit before the start of the season. Here are some of the most common things that can be wrong with your unit that you might not even know about.

Green Pro Cleaning has some calls each season where homeowners and business owners are complaining about their air conditioning not cooling correctly. One likely cause can be that you have a refrigerant leak. This leak is imperative to the function of your unit as it pulls the hot air inside and then sends it back to the outside while cooling off the air inside of your home.

Another problem that could cause your air conditioning unit to not function properly is a tear or hole in your ductwork. If you have an air conditioning unit that is forcing cold air out, but it is an insufficient amount of cooling air, you could be experiencing a leak from a tear or hole. There is also a possibility that there is a disconnected duct piece from the unit throughout the home.

Green Pro Cleaning also recommends that users look to the settings of their units. If your unit is turning on and off an excessive amount of times, there could be a problem with the settings, and if not, there could be another issue. One of the leading causes could be that an air filter is clogged. If the filter is clogged, it will restrict the amount of air that it will allow through the unit and therefore cause the unit to turn on and off.

If you find that you have a working unit but that it stops working periodically or you start to notice a burning smell, it could be your air conditioning unit. One problem that can be easily repaired and diagnosed is an electrical cause coming from your unit. If the unit is overheating or shuts down for no reason, there could be a problem with the units electrical end. 

Green Pro Cleaning is able to diagnosis this type of problem and can help you to make the proper repairs or to help you to decide if a new unit should be purchased and installed.
