One day, air conditioning systems may come with complex self-diagnostic computer systems that will quickly alert homeowners to malfunctions. But current ACs don’t have these capabilities, so it’s up to a homeowner to notice when their air conditioning system begins to behave strangely.

When something loud or unusual disrupts this white noise, don’t ignore it.
