Is a Puyallup AC Repair Necessary?
How do you know when a Puget Sound air conditioning repair is necessary?
It’s pretty straightforward in many cases, as you might notice only warm air is coming through your vents when attempting to cool your home. This scenario likely means the unit’s compressor is shot, and you’ll need to replace it before using your cooling system.
This symptom could also mean you have a bad capacitor or blown a fuse. Consider yourself lucky if a blown fuse is the problem because it’s one of the most manageable problems to repair. Replacing the capacitor or compressor is a more labor-intensive job, though, so the repair will cost more.
Another problem you could encounter is poor airflow coming from your vents when your air conditioner is running. The air will probably feel cold, but there won’t be much of it. You might have clogged filters or vents when you experience this symptom, but it could also be a worn-out compressor.
A common problem you might experience is an air conditioner that appears to run fine, except for a grinding or squealing noise that is audible when you turn it on. This sound could mean you have a slipped belt or some poorly lubricated components, which are relatively easy repairs for an experienced technician.
You might detect a foul smell coming from your unit when it’s starting to experience issues, too. This odor could signal mold building up on your coil or inside your ducts. You’ll want to address the problem as soon as possible because mold can bring health problems.

How We’ll Handle Your Puyallup Air Conditioner Repair
You’re probably curious about how your air conditioner repair will look, and, truthfully, it will all depend on what we find upon inspecting the unit.
For instance, you could have an issue with your breaker panel. If you keep having to replace blown fuses, it could mean there’s a more significant underlying issue that you’ll want your technician to address for long-term relief.
You could also experience problems with your thermostat, which is how you communicate with your air conditioning system. In situations where the system doesn’t react when you attempt to turn it on or decrease the temperature, there could be a problem with the thermostat or something wrong with your condenser or compressor.
Your air conditioner has air filters that remove particles from the air as it enters your ducts. As dust and other debris build-up on these filters, the air can’t move as freely, and replacing them could become necessary. This problem is relatively minor but also requires seasonal attention to ensure your airflow isn’t restricted.
As your cooling system ages, it’s also possible to experience problems with your evaporator coil, coolant lines, blower, and condenser coil. A technician can quickly identify any issues with your air conditioner and develop a solution. Keep in mind that problems with your blower will probably carry over to your furnace, as well.
