Top 5 HVAC Problems in the Summer and How to Solve Them

By BRIAN GLISSON

As the temperatures in Pooler, GA, and surrounding areas continue to soar, your AC becomes your best friend—unless it decides to go on a summer vacation, that is! While we all enjoy a bit of sun, dealing with HVAC issues during the summer is as much fun as a serious sunburn. Luckily, we at Indoor Climate Experts have the know-how to keep you cool and comfortable all season long. Let’s dive into the top 5 HVAC problems you might encounter this summer and, of course, how to solve them.

1. Why is My AC Running but Not Cooling?

Symptom: Your HVAC system is running, but your home feels more like a sauna than a sanctuary.

Solution: This could be a sign of low refrigerant levels or a failing compressor. First, check your thermostat settings (because, let’s face it, sometimes it’s the simple things). If that’s not the issue, call in the pros at Indoor Climate Experts. We’ll gauge your refrigerant levels and inspect the compressor. Often, a simple recharge or repair can have you chilling out in no time.

2. Why is My Airflow So Weak?

Symptom: The airflow from your vents is noticeably reduced.

Solution: A good first step is to check and replace your air filter if it’s clogged, as this is a common cause of reduced airflow. If replacing the air filter doesn’t resolve the issue, the problem may lie with the internal components of your HVAC system, such as the fan or its motor. At Indoor Climate Experts, we can inspect these components to ensure they are working correctly and make any necessary repairs to restore your system’s airflow efficiency.

3. Why Does My HVAC Keep Turning On and Off?

Symptom: The HVAC system frequently cycles on and off, more than what is normal. 

Solution:  This could be caused by an HVAC system that is either too large for the space or an issue with the thermostat settings. Let our expert technicians check your system and make any necessary adjustments or repairs to stabilize the cycling.

4. Why is There Ice on My Air Conditioner?

Symptom: There is visible ice formation on the HVAC unit.

Solution: Ice buildup typically indicates airflow problems or low refrigerant levels. Turn off the unit to allow the ice to melt, and then contact the pros. We’ll investigate the cause, whether it’s restricted airflow or a refrigerant issue, and resolve it efficiently.

5. Why is My Air Conditioner Leaking Water?

Symptom: Notice puddles around your HVAC system? That’s unexpected—and unwelcome.

Solution: Water leaks might be due to a clogged drain pipe or a faulty condensate pump. These problems can be tricky, but fear not—our technicians specialize in turning wet worries into dry solutions. We’ll find and fix the leak so you can get back to staying dry and cool.
