What Happens If AC Condenser Is Clogged?

Learn the causes and effects of a clogged AC condenser. Discover signs of clogging and the importance of professional cleaning to maintain efficiency.

What Happens If AC Condenser Is Clogged?

The purpose of an AC condenser is to remove heat from the air in your home. It works by circulating coolant through a coil, which removes heat from the air that passes over it. This cooled air is then circulated back into your home, providing you with a comfortable environment.

That’s why it’s important to keep your AC condenser clean.

If the AC condenser is clogged, your unit will have to work harder to cool your home, which could lead to increased energy bills.

Additionally, a clogged condenser can decrease the efficiency of your unit. As a result, your home may not be cooled as effectively, and you may experience discomfort.

It can also cause the unit to overheat, which could lead to damage or even complete failure.

There are a few ways to tell if your AC condenser is clogged. One way is to look at the unit itself. If there is a build-up of dirt and debris on the outside of the unit, it is likely that the inside is also clogged.

Another way to tell if your AC condenser is clogged is to listen for strange noises coming from the unit. If you hear banging, rattling, or squealing, it could be a sign that the unit is struggling to function properly due to a blockage.

Finally, if your AC unit is not cooling your home as efficiently as it used to, this could also indicate that the condenser is clogged.

If you notice any of these problems, it is important to have the unit serviced by a professional as soon as possible. Our team at Accurately Controlled Environments will be able to clean the unit and get it back to working properly. Additionally, we can check for any other problems that may be affecting your unit’s performance.

ACE was recommended to me by a friend when I was looking to have my system replaced. Everyone that I  dealt with, from Karl in the office to Fred and Mike, who installed our new system, was very professional and they went the extra mile to provide great customer service.  If you are looking for an HVAC company that is honest, reliable, and worth calling first , this is the one.

I can't express enough how much I appreciate ACE. They were so prompt with their responses and work. They did an absolutely amazing job with our two AC units. The customer service they provided was beyond what I am used to. I plan on being a lifelong customer of theirs. Feels great to have trustworthy people in this business especially since I am a first time homeowner and new to the area.

Great team. Provided honest feedback of the problem and took care of the issue. Company was recommended by my neighbor as a "trustworthy" business which is never easy to come by. Should the need arise I will only reach out to these guys.

Alex Z.

I converted from total electric to gas in 2014 using ACE.  Eric could not have been more patient, informative, knowledgeable and helpful during the conversion.  I was very pleased with the work that was done.  Since that time i have used ACE's maintenance plan.  When I call the office to make my appointment, I am always treated as an individual and not just an address that has to be serviced.

Sharon M.

We have been using ACE for over 8 years and have always found them reliable, knowledgeable, reasonable and friendly. They have installed a/c units and a humidifier in our home and we also have a service contract with them. It is convenient and keeps our systems running smoothly. I would highly recommend them.
