Burnt Out Motors in an AC: Detection and Prevention

Monday, August 19th, 2024
air-conditioning-condensers-near-plants

An air conditioning system uses several motors to operate. This is where most of the electrical power goes, and the reason you see an increase in your electric bills during the summer. The most powerful motor drives the compressor, the heart of the AC. There are several other motors in operation, such as the blower fan motor responsible for the circulation of air through a house and moving warm air across the evaporator coil to cool it down.

Motors have a finite service life. They will eventually wear down and need to be replaced. With proper care, you can help keep the motors in your AC running until it’s time to have the entire air conditioner replaced (usually in the 10 to 15-year range). But motors may run down earlier. 

We’re going to look at signs you have motors in trouble and the ways you can help keep your AC’s motors running with proper maintenance and air conditioning system repair in Loganville, GA.

But the introduction of ductless HVAC systems has challenged traditional ducted systems. 

If you’re considering a new heating and cooling system for your home, is ductless heating and ductless cooling in Decatur, GA the best choice? Or should you stay with the tried-and-true traditional system? We’ll look into this further below.

It’s not as complicated as you may fear, especially if you weren’t familiar with the previous system. As part of the air conditioning service in Conyers, GA we provide, we’d like to go through the current efficiency measurements for air conditioning systems.
