Give our team a call if you have any concerns about your air conditioner systems that make you think you need to schedule AC repair in Puyallup, WA ahead of the end of summer. You can also keep reading to learn about some of the signs that indicate you need to schedule a late-season repair appointment for your air conditioner instead of putting off needs until springtime next year.
Common AC Repair Needs
After your air conditioner has been running through the heat of summer, it may have certain components wear down. For example, the blower motor may be under strain and need to be cleaned, tightened, and even repaired.
It’s also possible that the capacitor on the outdoor unit goes bad and needs to be replaced. Thankfully, this is one of the simpler and less expensive problems to address. Other common AC problems include leaks in the refrigerant lines, clogged condensate drain lines, and frozen coils.
Reasons to Schedule Service NOW
You might have heard the saying that there is no better time than the present. This is definitely applicable to air conditioning problems. If you think that something is wrong with your AC unit, it is better to schedule service now and get down to the root of the problem. Otherwise, you risk the problem getting worse or even leading to your air conditioner breaking down completely.
AC problems don’t just impact the ability to cool your home. They can also lead to your air conditioner working harder or staying on for longer cooling cycles. This means that you’re spending more money on monthly energy costs to cool your home. When you go ahead and invest in repairs now, you could easily see a decrease in your next energy bill if your AC is able to operate more efficiently.
Don’t Wait Until Next Year
It’s easy to think because summer is winding down you can just wait to deal with any AC problems next year. But will you remember to schedule a service appointment? Will the unit even turn back on in the spring? Chances are that any issues you’re facing now will fade from your memory over the fall and winter months.
Even if you do remember to schedule the service, chances are that the problem is worse than if you had just addressed it now. But when you can get your air conditioner, checked out and fixed at the end of the summer season, you can have peace of mind that it will be ready to start up again and cool your home effectively in the spring without any issues.
