Common Issues that require Air Conditioner Service

  • Poorly-charged air conditioning system. If an A/C system is not properly charged with refrigerant, it is unable to efficiently remove heat and cool your home.
  • The outside fan or unit is not working. The condenser fan located outside your home removes heat from the compressor and keeps refrigerant cool. The condenser fan can stop working due to a faulty capacitor, a bad motor bearing can cause it to overheat, or there may not be power to the system. If it does not run or is not spinning at full capacity, it can cause your compressor to prematurely fail, in some cases a new air conditioner has to be installed if the compressor is not in stock.
  • Insufficiently cooled rooms. This can be due to poor duct design, kinked or damaged air ducts, or an air duct leak.
  • The A/C unit is not blowing cold air. This can be can be a result of various issues, including the following:
    • Lack of power to the system
    • Dead thermostat batteries
    • A low refrigerant charge
  • Dirty air filters (Note: Dirty air filters can cause many system malfunctions. Air filters should be changed periodically- typically every 3-6 months in some cases monthly.)

Air Conditioning Basics

The four main components to your air conditioner are:

Condenser: The condenser is the outside metal unit and where the gas from the compressor is condensed into a liquid. The gas entering the condenser is very hot. The temperature is then lowered, so the gas can convert back to a liquid.

Compressor: The compressor is inside the condenser. It circulates the pressurized refrigerant, to concentrate the heat, and changes the low pressure gas to high pressure.

Evaporator: The evaporator is the part of the system inside the home. In simple language, it absorbs the heat from your home.

Expansion Valve: The expansion valve controls the amount of refrigerant allowed into your Evaporator Coil ( Cooling Coil ).

All of these pieces are connected by a copper tube that handles refrigerant, creating a closed loop. Heat is collected in the evaporator, sent outside to the condenser. The heat is removed, and the cold air is recirculated back into your home.

Air Conditioning Facts

An air conditioner doesn’t create cool air.
What happens in the AC process is actually the removal of heat from the air. Your AC uses a chemical called refrigerant to remove heat and transfer it outside. The refrigerant runs through the lines and coils in your unit and goes from liquid to gas and back again. During this process, the refrigerant removes the heat and transfers it elsewhere so that when the air comes out the other side, it is cool.

Your AC will remove humidity.
Lower humidity helps the overall comfort level in your home by making you feel cooler, even if the temperature is the same.

Your air filter needs to be checked and replaced every three to six months.
A dirty air filter restricts your air flow, which reduces efficiency, costing you money, and over time can put stress on your unit and could cause a costly repair.

Maintenance, maintenance and maintenance.
Your Air Conditioning system needs regular checkups to keep it running in tip-top shape. Having regular annual preventative maintenance will bring your system longer life and fewer breakdowns during hot summer days.

Installing New Air Conditioner

Need to Install a New Air Conditioner? With major equipment such as your home comfort air conditioner, we tend to do everything possible to repair them before determining that a replacement of your cooling system is necessary. The need for a replacement usually comes after you’ve had your system for many years often times more than 10 years old, or when it has been used excessively and cannot be repaired any longer.

Deciding to replace your air conditioning system is a big step and, for many homeowners, a dreaded one. It can be a bit overwhelming to determine which system is the right fit for you and your family.  From budget to technology to code compliance, buying a new air conditioner isn’t an easy purchase option. Many people get many estimates and much misinformation along the way.

That’s why we are always ready to offer expert advice and answer whatever questions our clients in Pacific Palisades have about replacing their air conditioners. We’ll also walk you through the steps of the replacement process and help you schedule it for a time that’s most convenient for you.

RETURN AIR IS IMPORTANT

Return air is critical to the function of your air conditioning system. What is Return Air? Return air is the air that flows through the system usually from the biggest grill in the house some homes may have one or two returns depending on the set up and system type. Return air flows through your air filter.

There are two factors affecting your return air that may require adjustments or repair:

  • Improperly sized return air ducts will result in low airflow, the size of your equipment determines how much air should be flowing throughout the system. Low airflow severely affects both the efficiency and lifespan of your air conditioning system.
  • Leaking return air ducts or grilles will suck in dust, dirt and in some cases fiber glass from your attic insulation. These foreign particles will make their way into your home where you and your family will breathe it.

Regular maintenance visits will help our technicians spot and repair problems as they occur.

Why You Want To Work With The Best HVAC Company ( Pacific Coast Heating and Air inc )

Working with a reputable HVAC company is critical to protect your home comfort system. Working with a sub-par HVAC contractor can create a number of problems:

  • Poor installation of Heating and Air Conditioning equipment leads to equipment inefficiency. When purchasing and installing a new system, efficiency ratings are usually a huge benefit for homeowners and their utility bills – you expect your new system to offer the expected efficiency as written by your comfort specialist on paper. When installation is done by a poorly skilled installation company, your unit may not be able to operate at optimum efficiency you paid for. This increases your operating costs, and you don’t benefit from the savings of the high efficiency unit you paid for.
  • Poor HVAC installation or repairs inhibit system performance and may reduce the life of your equipment. If your heating or cooling unit is not installed or repaired correctly, the system will not perform properly, it may cool and run fine for a few days or months until it finally breaks down leaving you wondering what could have gone wrong. Comfort throughout your household will be noticeable, and your energy bills will more than likely rise, as the unit uses more energy to overcompensate for the poorly done repair or install. Bad installations or repair jobs lead to more equipment breakdowns and stress on your central comfort system. Your unit could fail sooner than expected, leaving you with the expense of replacing a system far before needed.

The Benefits Of AC Replacement Include:

  • Better air quality
  • More eco-friendly
  • Lower energy bills
  • Quiet air conditioner
  • Solve inconsistent air flow problems
  • Warranty on your new Air conditioner
  • Peace of mind and more.

If your system is between 10 and 20 years old and you are experiencing high utility bills or inconsistent performance, we recommend scheduling a professional evaluation of your existing system to determine if maintenance (such as ductwork repairs) or replacement is the best course of action.
