Signs You’re Overworking Your Air Conditioning System

October 20, 2019

Your air conditioning system does not always respond well when it is asked to do too much. When it is under stress, it will not perform at its best. Here are some signs that you may be working your air conditioning system too hard.

1. Your System Loses Efficiency


When you are asking too much from your air conditioner, you will start to get less for more. In other words, you will get less cooling at the same time that your bill keeps skyrocketing. An air conditioner that is taxed will need more electricity to reach the same output. This will send your power bills soaring in the summer, and you will still struggle to stay cool indoors.

2. Your System Frequently Breaks


If you are on a first-name basis with the AC repair technician, it is a sign that you may not be using your air conditioner properly. When the system has to work too hard, the parts are under stress and will be more likely to break. When you need an unexpected air conditioning repair, you should check with the technician to see if the way in which you were using the system caused the issue that needed fixing.

3. Your Home Cools Unevenly


If your home has some spots that are cooler than others and patches of warm areas, your air conditioning system is likely stressed. Uneven cooling is a sign that there is a weakness in your system that can be caused by overuse.

4. You Hear Strange Noises


Your air conditioning system’s signs of distress could be unusual noises. This could mean that a particular part is overworking and starting to break down. In any event, when your air conditioning system is making anything more than a quiet hum, it is a hint of possible trouble.
