The everyday warning signs that mean it is time to book a service before a small fault becomes a full breakdown.
If the fan is running but the air is barely cool, the refrigerant may be low or the compressor may be struggling. Do not keep running it in this state.
A blocked or misaligned condensate drain is the usual cause. Left alone it stains ceilings and damages electronics.
A musty smell means bacterial growth on the coil or in the drain pan. A burning smell means switch off at the isolator and call a technician immediately.
Fan bearings, loose mounts and failing capacitors all make themselves heard. Early repair is inexpensive; a seized fan motor is not.
A dirty coil or low refrigerant charge can double the running cost of an aircon. A service usually pays for itself in the next power bill.
