1. There is ice build up on my air conditioning unit.
2. I can’t get my home’s temperature to go down.
3. My home is freezing in the basement and hot upstairs.
4. My air conditioner is making noise.
5. There is water on the floor near the air conditioning unit.

Happily, none of these symptoms are cause for panic! There are a number of quick fixes that you are able to do for yourself right away, as well as some things I can do for you during a quick service call.

What can you do?

1. Start by changing the filter of your air conditioning unit. This is one of the easiest, cheapest repairs money can buy.
2. Next, check your circuit breakers. A quick flip of a breaker may have you back on your way.
3. Be sure your thermostat is set correctly. This may seem obvious, but with today’s newer programmable thermostats, it’s an easy mistake to make.

What can I do?

1. I’ll check your refrigeration levels. You may have a leak requiring a a quick repair and recharge.
2. I’ll check your control voltage.
3. I’ll check your air flow. There may be an obstruction, which I’ll locate and we’ll go from there.
