Introduction ⚙️❄️
The compressor is the heart of your air conditioning system—it circulates refrigerant and enables the cooling process. When it fails or malfunctions, your entire system can suffer. Compressor issues can lead to poor cooling, strange noises, frequent cycling, or even complete system shutdown. Addressing these problems early can save you from costly repairs or full system replacement.
Common AC Compressor Problems and How to Handle Them
- Compressor Won’t Start
This could be due to a faulty capacitor, tripped breaker, or electrical issue.
👉 ANG Heating and Air Conditioning can perform electrical diagnostics, test capacitors, and inspect wiring to safely restore compressor function.
- Compressor Short Cycling
If your AC turns on and off frequently, it may be caused by low refrigerant, thermostat issues, or a failing compressor.
👉 Our technicians can check refrigerant levels, recalibrate your thermostat, and assess compressor health to prevent further damage.
- Noisy Compressor Operation
Grinding, rattling, or buzzing sounds may indicate worn bearings, loose parts, or internal damage.
👉 We provide comprehensive inspections and repairs, replacing worn components and ensuring quiet, efficient operation.
- Overheating Compressor
Overheating can result from dirty coils, poor ventilation, or electrical overload.
👉 ANG Heating and Air Conditioning offers coil cleaning, airflow optimization, and electrical load testing to prevent overheating and extend compressor life.
- Refrigerant Leaks or Pressure Issues
Low refrigerant or incorrect pressure levels can cause the compressor to strain or fail prematurely. 👉 Our team can detect leaks, recharge refrigerant, and balance system pressure to protect your compressor and restore cooling performance.
When Replacement Is the Best Option
If your compressor is burned out, locked up, or beyond repair, replacement may be necessary.
👉 We’ll help you evaluate your options, whether it’s replacing the compressor or upgrading to a more efficient HVAC system that better suits your home.
