Why Is My AC Not Blowing Cold Air? | Fairfield County Guide
It’s a hot day in Fairfield County and your AC is… blowing warm air? Before you panic, here are the most common reasons your AC isn’t blowing cold air — and how Edgerton can help fix it fast.
1. Dirty Air Filter
When your filter is clogged, airflow gets restricted — making it harder for your system to circulate cool air. Solution? Swap it out!
2. Thermostat Issues
Double-check that your thermostat is set to “cool” and the temperature is lower than the current room temp. Sometimes it’s a quick fix.
3. Low Refrigerant Levels
Refrigerant is what cools the air. If you’re low, you might have a leak — and that’s something only a licensed tech should handle.
4. Frozen Evaporator Coils
Yup, your system can literally freeze up. This usually comes from restricted airflow or low refrigerant, and it stops cold air in its tracks.
5. Outdoor Unit Problems
If your outdoor condenser is clogged with dirt or debris — or the fan isn’t spinning — your system can’t properly release heat.
6. Leaky Ductwork
Cold air might be escaping through gaps in your ducts before it even reaches your vents. That’s a major efficiency killer.
