Preventing Costly AC Repairs

The best way to avoid emergency repairs is to prevent them in the first place. A properly installed and maintained air conditioner can last 10 to 20 years or more. Follow these steps to help reduce the chance of unexpected breakdowns:

• Replace your air filter every 2 to 3 months

• Keep the outdoor unit clear of dirt, plants, and obstructions

• Schedule maintenance twice a year to inspect components, adjust settings, and identify minor issues early

Signs You Need Air Conditioner Repair

Watch for these common signs that your air conditioner needs attention:

• Blowing warm air: Could be caused by a refrigerant leak, clogged filter, or a failing compressor

• Uneven temperatures in rooms: May be linked to a faulty thermostat or electrical issue

• Unusual noises: Squealing or grinding sounds often point to a loose belt or worn motor parts

• High humidity indoors: Your system may need recalibration or component repair

• Leaking water: A blocked drain line or frozen coil can cause moisture problems

If you notice any of these symptoms, contact Voltus Electric right away to avoid further damage or rising energy bills.

When to Consider AC Replacement

Although we strive to repair your existing system whenever possible, sometimes repair is no longer cost-effective. You may want to consider a replacement if:

• Your AC is over 15–20 years old

• You’ve had multiple breakdowns in a short time

• Repairs are becoming more frequent and expensive

• Your energy bills are steadily rising

• Your system no longer keeps your home consistently cool

Our team will help assess the condition of your unit and provide honest recommendations—repair if it makes sense, replacement if it saves you in the long run.

Components of an Air Conditioner: What You Should Know

Understanding your system helps you identify potential issues early. Here’s a basic overview of what makes up a typical AC system:

Inside Your Home:

• Evaporator Coil: Absorbs heat and cools your air

• Copper Tubing: Transfers refrigerant throughout the system

• Air Filter: Captures dust and debris for cleaner air

• Ductwork: Delivers cool air to each room

• Thermostat: Allows you to control your home’s temperature

• Expansion Valve: Controls refrigerant flow for efficient cooling

Outside Your Home:

• Compressor: Pressurizes and circulates refrigerant

• Condenser Coil: Releases heat removed from your home

• Fan/Blower: Moves air across coils and into your home

• Air Handler: Connects indoor/outdoor components and manages airflow
