No AC in Kenton, OH

Air conditioner running but not cooling, or condenser silent. Same-day call when temps are 85°F+ or for vulnerable household members.

Step-by-step response

  1. 1
    Check the thermostat

    Set to COOL, fan AUTO, setpoint 5°F below current temp. Wait 5 minutes. Listen for outdoor condenser starting.

  2. 2
    Check the breaker

    Look for a tripped breaker labeled 'AC' or 'Condenser'. Reset fully off then on. Don't repeatedly reset if it keeps tripping.

  3. 3
    Look at the outdoor condenser

    Coils visibly dirty? Spray with garden hose (power off first). Fan blade not spinning? Likely capacitor — call same-day.

  4. 4
    Check the filter

    Choked filter restricts airflow + freezes the indoor coil, blocking cooling. Replace if dirty.

  5. 5
    Call HVAC for same-day diagnosis

    If unit is 12+ years old AND repair quote is $700+: get a replacement quote too. Replace becomes economic at the 50% rule.

Frequently asked

Why does my AC blow warm air?

Most common: blown capacitor (compressor isn't running), low refrigerant (slow leak), or frozen indoor coil from clogged filter or low refrigerant. The diagnosis decides the fix.

Should I repair or replace a 15-year-old AC?

If repair quote is over 50% of replacement, replace. Modern 16+ SEER systems are 30-40% more efficient — payback in 5-8 years. Plus 2026 IRA rebates for heat pumps.
