Inside
unit is running but the outside unit
is not, what's up?
Tripped A/C breaker: Check this first. Find the breaker for
the air
conditioner. Turn it completely
"off" even if it appears to be "off", then turn it back on again.
If
it trips again, leave it alone and call your contractor.
Thermostat wiring broken: Check
the thermostat wires by the outside
unit. This is the small cable
with small wires going into the outside unit. Many times I
have seen
this cable broken or cut by
lawn mowers or kids playing, or even by the dog. And, don't forget! Dirt
is the biggest enemy of your air conditioner!
Giving your air
conditioning system an efficient, high MERV rating air filter is
the best thing you can do for your air conditioner. A good air filter will
extend the life of
your air
conditioner because the important parts, like the blower assembly, the cooling
coil, and other inner parts will stay cleaner, operate more
efficiently and
last longer.
And, as a side benefit of having a good air filter,
your family and you
will enjoy breathing much healthier indoor air. Air
that will be free of dust mites, mold, mildew, dust, pet dander, etc.
etc.
