Frequently asked in Charlotte

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

This common issue can stem from several sources. It might be a dirty air filter blocking airflow, a refrigerant leak, or an issue with the outdoor unit's fan motor. Sometimes, the thermostat itself can cause problems. A qualified AC technician will be able to diagnose the specific cause and recommend the best solution for your system.

What does a typical AC repair cost?

This is especially relevant for older ACs that may be nearing the end of their lifespan. A professional can help you compare repair estimates with replacement costs.

What is the 3 minute rule for AC?

This rule is designed to protect your AC's compressor. It means you should wait at least 3 to 5 minutes after shutting off your AC before turning it back on. This prevents the compressor from short-cycling, which can lead to premature wear and damage. If your thermostat is causing frequent on/off cycles, it's worth having it inspected.

This rule of thumb applies to your entire HVAC system. If a major repair is estimated to cost about half the price of a new system, it's often a good idea to consider replacement. This can save you money in the long run by avoiding ongoing repairs on an aging system. A technician can provide an estimate and help you weigh your options.
