Signs your AC might be broken

The cooler months are finally coming around in Florida. Even with cooler days ahead, it is important to have a working AC unit in Florida. A broken air conditioning unit can be very stressful causing unwanted sweat and sleepless nights.
Signs your AC may be broken

1. Does it feel extra hot in the house? Check your thermostat. If the temperature in your home is about 3 degrees warmer or more than what your thermostat reads, there could potentially be a problem with your unit.
2. Your digital display isn’t showing anything. If it’s blank, the power may be off.
3. Your unit is frozen or leaking water
4. Odd noises seem to be coming from the unit

Tips to try before calling a professional

1. If your unit appears frozen, turn the temperature up or turn the unit off. Give the ice a chance to melt. Once it does, set your air conditioning temperature as you normally do. Afterward, it may be working fine.
2. Change your air filter. Your filter may be very dirty which prohibits your unit from working at its best. After you put a new filter in, you may notice the house cools down rather quickly.

If you are still having problems, you should call a professional. You may need to have your AC replaced. It is possible that it just needs service or maintenance. Call Harrell Home Services for fast and professional service.
