Troubleshoot Your Air Conditioner – Minneapolis St. Paul, MN

AC Troubleshooting Minneapolis MN You’re relaxing in your Minneapolis St. Paul home on a nice summer morning. Then, as the day warms up, you notice that your air conditioning system isn’t cooling your home properly. What could be wrong? Should you call an air conditioning service technician to fix it? Maybe not. There are several simple things that could be wrong that you can check and fix yourself. It only takes a few minutes to find out if one of these things is the issue. If so, you can go back to enjoying your day. If it’s something more serious, a call to Residential Heating & Air Conditioning will get an expert technician to your home quickly.

  • Check The Power – Is the power off to your air conditioning unit or furnace blower? Start by checking the circuit breakers for both. They should be fully in the ON position. If not, switch them to the OFF position then back to ON. Check the switch on your blower or furnace control panel. Make sure it’s ON, too. If that restores your cool air, you’ve solved the problem. If a circuit breaker trips to OFF again, though, call Residential Heating & Air Conditioning right away, since that is a symptom of a more serious problem.
  • Check The Thermostat – Your thermostat should be set to a temperature lower than the current temperature in the room. Very often, someone may have raised the setting. Children love to turn dials or press buttons, and settings sometimes get changed during housecleaning. It’s surprising how many times this is the problem.
  • Check Room Registers – Make sure the registers in the room are open and unobstructed. Children, or even pets, sometimes close them by accident, cutting off the circulation of air in a room.
  • Check The Filter – Check the filter for your furnace and air conditioner. If it’s clogged, that will reduce the efficiency of your system and limit air flow.
