The clogging of air filters might be the reason for failure to your air conditioner. In these cases, the dirty filters prevent the good flow of air into the AC unit.

Dirty Coils

Dirty air condenser coils may be the reason as to why the air in your room is not cool enough. Coils clogged with debris will lead to the failure of your unit. A condenser coil is a form of radiator that cools the heat from the air in the living room. So as the condenser to be able to send the heat outside, it is supposed to be clean.

Faulty Compressor

There is no other way an air conditioner can work without the compressor (referred to as the heart of the air conditioning unit. A compressor is responsible for the cool air you normally get out of the air conditioner. If the air conditioner fails to cool the room there might be a defect in the compressor. it is the part that is essential for the starting of the cooling process and if the process fails to start, it will mean no cooling is going to take place. The compressor, as a motor compresses the coolant and aids in circulating the refrigerant through a condenser coil and the evaporator. For this kind of problem many companies are available for split system repairs.

Faulty Thermostat

A thermostat works hand in hand with the compressor. It is essential in sensing the room temperatures after this the thermostat gives a hint to the compressor for the cooling to start or stop. A defect in the thermostat can lead to air not cooling or cooling throughout.

Defective Parts

Other factors that may make your AC not cooling as required might be problems associated with the compressor’s capacitor, control body defectives, choked capillary, faulty motor and many other minor parts in the air conditioner.

Atmospheric Temperatures

High and unfavorable atmospheric temperatures might fail your air conditioning machine. Any air conditioner works best under given optimal temperatures. This involves temperatures surrounding the cooling unit.  If the temperatures rise above the required, the functionality of the machine will eventually go down. A compressor may fail to work completely when the surroundings are too hot.

Undersized Air Conditioner

People make a lot of big mistakes when purchasing an air conditioner. Most people buy according to their financial budget and not as what the room requires. A small air conditioner will not work good in a big room.

Faulty Air Conditioner Remote

There are some cases where the remote does not send signals of change in temperature to the air conditioner. You are advised to replace your remote in such cases.

 From the above cases, we can conclude that any air conditioner failure is caused by a certain default in the air conditioner or unfavorable surroundings of the cooling machine. The good thing is that every default case has a remedy.
