AC Not Cooling? We Can Help in Asheville, NC
An air conditioner that runs but blows warm air is one of the most frustrating — and common — summer problems in Asheville. Ledbetter Temperature Control diagnoses the real cause fast and gets your home cool again.
Why Your AC Is Running But Not Cooling
When your AC runs but doesn't cool, the cause usually falls into one of these categories:
- Dirty or clogged air filter restricting airflow
- Low refrigerant from a leak
- Frozen evaporator coil
- Dirty outdoor condenser coil
- Failing compressor
- Ductwork leak or disconnect
- Thermostat or control board issue
What to Check Before You Call
A few quick checks can save a service call:
- Check and replace your air filter — a clogged filter is the #1 cause of cooling problems
- Make sure the outdoor unit is clear of leaves, grass, and debris
- Check that your thermostat is set to 'cool' and the temperature is set correctly
- Make sure no supply or return vents are blocked
When to Call a Professional
If the basics check out and your AC still isn't cooling, it's time for a professional diagnostic. Running an AC that isn't cooling can cause further damage — especially to the compressor. Our technicians check refrigerant levels, coils, electrical components, and ductwork to find and fix the real problem.
