Why Is Your AC Blowing Warm Air?

Nothing is worse than turning on the AC during a hot day only to feel warm air coming from your vents.

1. Incorrect Thermostat Settings

Double-check that your thermostat is set to cool and not just fan.

2. Dirty Air Filter

A clogged air filter restricts airflow and can cause your system to overheat.

3. Refrigerant Leak

Low refrigerant levels mean your system cannot absorb heat from inside your home. This usually requires professional repair.

4. Tripped Breaker or Blown Fuse

Sometimes the outdoor unit loses power, causing the inside unit to run without cooling.

5. Dirty Condenser Coils

The outdoor coils release heat from your home. If they are covered in dirt or debris, your AC will struggle to cool effectively.
