Why Is My AC Not Cooling? Common Causes

If your AC is running but the house is not getting cooler, a few common culprits are usually to blame. Here is what to check.

Check these first

• A dirty air filter restricting airflow
• Thermostat set to the wrong mode
• A tripped breaker
• A clogged condensate drain that shut the system off
• Ice on the indoor coil, turn it off and let it thaw

When to call a pro

If those are clear and it still will not cool, you may have low refrigerant, a failing capacitor, or a compressor issue. These need a technician, and we handle most the same day.
