A Walkthrough of Your New Home - The Air Conditioner

Why isn't my AC working?

In this video, our QC Supervisor Dan McNulty walks us through the breakers for the AC unit. Dan gives useful tips for how to diagnose common reasons when your AC will not start or when the temperature in your home will not get cool.

 

Simplified Video Transcript:

Your AC condenser has 2 breakers, you have one on the panel and you have another one right here (outside by condenser unit). This is a service breaker, this is basically for a service repairman or anyone who has to work on this condenser that way they can shut the power off here without having to enter the home.  If you purchased your home in the Fall or Winter there is a possibility that either this breaker or the breaker inside may be turned off, so you want to check that and make sure your AC is running. If your switch is in an off position, then flip it to on.
