AC Repair
Maximize Your Air Conditioner's Efficiency with Professional Maintenance and Repair
Ensure your air conditioner’s optimal performance with a professional installation. Reliable and efficient cooling starts with the right setup. However, maintaining that performance over time requires regular maintenance. Air Support Cooling and Heating, LLC offers a comprehensive maintenance plan designed to keep your home’s cooling system running at peak efficiency.
Air Support Cooling & Heating has repaired AC systems across Tampa since 2008. We’re licensed (CAC1815982) and background-checked, and our experience spans the city’s full range of housing – from 1920s Craftsman bungalows in Seminole Heights and Hyde Park that were never built with central ductwork in mind, to mid-century block homes, 1990s-2000s stucco subdivisions, and downtown high-rise condos. No other Tampa AC company sees that full range on a daily basis, and it means we diagnose the actual cause instead of guessing at a one-size-fits-all fix.

Comprehensive Guide to AC Troubleshooting and Common Issues
Air conditioners are essential for maintaining a comfortable indoor climate, but like any system, they can encounter problems. Here’s a comprehensive guide combining troubleshooting tips and solutions for common AC issues.
AC Not Cooling
Check the Thermostat:
Set the Temperature: Ensure the thermostat is set to the correct temperature and mode (cooling).
Battery Power: Replace the batteries if the display is off or malfunctioning.
Examine the Air Filter:
Filter Condition: A clogged or dirty air filter can restrict airflow and cause the AC to malfunction. Clean or replace the filter if it’s dirty.
Inspect the Power Supply:
Power Verification: Check if the air conditioner is receiving power. Look for a tripped breaker or blown fuse in the electrical panel.
Power Switches: Ensure the power switches near both the indoor and outdoor units are turned on.
Check the Outdoor Unit:
Debris Removal: Make sure the outdoor unit is free from debris, such as leaves or dirt, that can obstruct airflow.
Ventilation: Ensure the area around the unit is clear for proper ventilation.
Thermostat Problems: Ensure the thermostat is set to cooling mode and the fan is on AUTO. Calibration issues or faulty wiring can also prevent the AC from cooling properly.
Refrigerant Issues: Low refrigerant levels can hinder the cooling process.
Call us at (813) 245-4622 for Service.
AC Running Constantly
Check the Thermostat’s Fan Settings:
Fan Mode: Ensure the fan is set to AUTO, not ON. The AUTO setting ensures the fan only runs during cooling cycles, preventing constant warm air circulation.
Adjust Thermostat Settings:
Temperature Adjustment: Lower the thermostat setting several degrees to see if this triggers a cooling cycle.
Thermostat Settings: Adjust thermostat settings to appropriate temperatures (around 78°F for cooling). Incorrect settings can cause the AC to run constantly.
Dirty Filters or Coils:
Examine the Air Filter: A clogged or dirty air filter can restrict airflow and cause the AC to malfunction. Clean or replace the filter if it’s dirty.
Check the Outdoor Unit: Make sure the outdoor unit is free from debris. Clean or replace dirty filters and coils. Obstructed airflow forces the system to work harder and run longer.
Call us at (813) 245-4622 for Service.
Incorrect Sizing: Ensure the AC unit is the correct size for your home. An improperly sized unit can lead to constant running cycles to meet temperature demands.
AC Freezing Up
Look for Ice Build-Up:
Ice Detection: Not that type of ice! We are in Florida! Check the indoor unit and refrigerant lines for ice build-up. If you see ice, turn off the unit and let it thaw before restarting. Note that the outdoor unit may also develop ice build-up on the lines exiting the unit.
Check the Outdoor Unit: Remove debris around the outdoor unit. Debris obstructs airflow, causing the refrigerant to overcool and form ice.
Check the Vents: Ensure that all supply and return vents are open and unblocked. Clean any visible dust or debris from the vents.
Faulty Fan: Ensure the outdoor fan is working properly. A defective fan reduces airflow and leads to freezing.
Call us at (813) 245-4622 for Service.
Dirty Coils: Clean coils to improve heat transfer. Dirty coils can lead to improper heat exchange and freezing.
AC Short Cycling
Improper Sizing: An incorrectly sized unit can cause short cycles. Consult an HVAC professional for proper sizing. A unit that is too large or small will frequently turn on and off.
Dirty Filters: Replace clogged air filters to improve airflow. Restricted airflow causes overheating and short cycling.
Low Refrigerant: Address refrigerant leaks with professional help. Low refrigerant leads to inefficient operation and frequent cycling.
Thermostat Calibration: Check and recalibrate the thermostat if necessary. Incorrect calibration can cause the AC to short cycle.
Call us at (813) 245-4622 for Service.
AC Leaking Water
Check the Condensate Drain:
Drain Condition: This is one of the most common issues we see. Ensure the condensate drain is not clogged, as this can cause water damage and affect the unit’s performance.
Condensate Drain Issues: Replace cracked pans or unclog the drain line. Clogged or damaged drain lines cause water leakage.
Refrigerant Leak: A professional can address refrigerant leaks causing ice and water build-up. Low refrigerant can lead to icing and subsequent melting.
Mold Growth: Address mold issues promptly to prevent health problems. Mold growth indicates prolonged moisture issues.
Call us at (813) 245-4622 for Service.
Listen for Unusual Noises
Noise Inspection: Pay attention to any unusual noises from the indoor or outdoor unit, which could indicate a mechanical issue.
Reset the System
System Reset: Sometimes, resetting the air conditioner can resolve minor issues. Turn off the unit at the thermostat, wait a few minutes, and then turn it back on.
When to Call Air Support Cooling and Heating, LLC
Persistent Issues: If troubleshooting steps don’t resolve the problem, contact Air Support Cooling and Heating, LLC. Avoid attempting complex repairs yourself to prevent further damage.
