Why Is My Air Conditioner Running But Not Cooling Properly?

Your AC is running but not cooling when there’s a refrigerant leak, a frozen evaporator coil, an electrical or sensor issue, or restricted airflow. These are common problems we diagnose and repair for central and ductless systems in areas like Bastrop and Elgin. Our tune-up tasks include checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, and tightening electrical connections to prevent breakdowns.

Quick checks:

  • Set thermostat to Cool and lower the setpoint.
  • Replace a dirty filter and open supply/return vents.
  • Look for ice on the indoor coil; turn system Off if iced.
  • Check the breaker and listen for unusual noises.
