. Most people without giving a look at what is wrong with their AC call up Air Conditioning Tempe for fixing their AC.

Here are some troubleshooting tips which you can follow whenever your AC stops working unexpectedly.

First, check for any tripped circuit breaker. Even though the ACs circuit breaker looks like it is on, you may again flip it in off position and turn it on again to make sure that this may or may not be the cause. Sometimes one leg of a double-pole circuit breaker may hold in the other leg and make the breaker appear "ON" when it has actually been tripped. Carrying out this tip may work and might stop you from calling HVAC Repair Tempe and save dollars.

Another simple tip before you consider calling up

AC Repair Tempe is to make sure that your thermostat is turned down to a temperature that will allow the air conditioning system to cool. There have been several cases in which the only problem with the AC is not turning down the thermostat. Make sure you switch the fan on and the filter access door and furnace door are secure.

Check out the condensing unit (usually kept outside) to make sure that every component is running. At times it happens that only the fan is running while the compressor is not or vice-versa. When this happens, turn off the power to the outdoor unit. Carefully remove the casing of the unit, touch the top of the compressor. Is the compressor very hot? If it is then, the compressor is out due to thermal over-load. Let the compressor cool down. You may let cold water run over the compressor to cool it down quickly. When you think the compressor is cooled, turn on the power. Did the fan turn on simultaneously with the compressor? If the fan didnt turn on, this might be the cause of the compressors thermal over-load. Check the fan bearing and accordingly, fix or change the fan blades or the fan motor yourself or call Air Conditioning Tempe for help. If the fan is okay, the reason for the compressor thermal over-load may be because the systems refrigerant is low. If the refrigerant is low, you definitely need the help of

HVAC Repair Tempe for your AC recharging.

The next tip is to check out the whole systems wiring to make sure there are no fused or burnt out wires. If there is any damaged wires repair it yourself if you are accustomed to electrical wirings if not, you can call AC Repair Tempe to help you out with it.

Check out the capacitor(s) in your unit for any swollen appearance. If the capacitor(s) is/are swollen, it is time for you to replace it/them. You can take the help of Air Conditioning Tempe for help or you can do it yourself since, the only thing to do while changing a capacitor is to connect the wires in the corresponding connectors.

These are the things you need to look for when your air conditioning doesnt turn on. For other AC problems contact air conditioning Tempe companies like HVAC Repair Tempe and AC Repair Tempe for help.
