AC repair FAQs
Immediate answers when the AC stops cooling.
Use these answers to protect the equipment and decide what to do while you wait for service.
Why is my AC running but not cooling?
Possible causes include thermostat settings, restricted airflow, coil icing, an electrical or control failure, a refrigerant problem or a failed component. If the filter and settings look normal, the system needs measured diagnosis rather than a guessed part.
Should I turn off an air conditioner with ice on it?
Yes. Turn cooling off and request service. Continued operation can worsen icing and may contribute to compressor or water damage. Do not chip ice from the coil or refrigerant line.
