My Air Conditioner Cools Inconsistently
Posted On: August 23, 2024
If your air conditioner cools inconsistently, it could point to several underlying issues that may need attention. Here are some common causes and solutions:
Common Causes of Inconsistent Cooling:
-
Dirty Air Filters: Clogged filters restrict airflow, causing the AC to struggle in cooling your home evenly. Regularly cleaning or replacing the filters can resolve this issue.
-
Blocked or Leaky Ducts: Air ducts can accumulate dust or develop leaks, leading to uneven cooling as air escapes before reaching certain rooms. A professional duct inspection can help identify and fix these issues.
-
Improperly Sized Unit: If your AC is too large or too small for your home, it may cool some areas too quickly or fail to cool others adequately. An HVAC technician can assess whether your system is the right size for your space.
-
Thermostat Issues: A malfunctioning or poorly placed thermostat might not accurately detect the temperature in your home, causing uneven cooling. Ensure your thermostat is functioning correctly and placed in an optimal location.
-
Refrigerant Leak: Low refrigerant levels due to a leak can prevent the AC from cooling effectively, leading to inconsistent temperatures. If you suspect this, have a professional check and refill the refrigerant.
-
Blocked Vents: Furniture or other objects blocking your vents can restrict airflow and cause uneven cooling. Check all vents and make sure they are open and unobstructed.
-
Aging System: An older AC system may struggle to distribute cool air evenly as its components wear down over time. In this case, it might be time to consider replacing the unit.
Solutions to Fix Inconsistent Cooling:
- Regular Maintenance: Routine maintenance, such as cleaning filters, inspecting ductwork, and checking refrigerant levels, can prevent inconsistent cooling.
- Zoning Systems: Installing a zoning system can allow you to control temperatures in different areas of your home independently, ensuring more even cooling.
- Smart Thermostats: Upgrading to a smart thermostat can help monitor and adjust temperatures more accurately, preventing hot and cold spots in your home.
Addressing these issues can help restore comfort and efficiency to your home. If you're dealing with persistent inconsistent cooling, a professional HVAC inspection can identify the root cause and provide the best solution.

Appreciated a quick response to my request. Dave and Greg were very professional and made the experience seamless.

Very professional through the entire process. Installation and removel was done on a sloppy winter day, they put down runners on the floors and stairs and when they left, there wasn;t any sign of someone being in our house. Furnace works great as promised.

Dave was very pleasant to deal with and Twintech responded quickly when our furnace needed to be replaced ASAP. Installation was done on time and the crew were neat and tidy. We now have a great furnace that suits the needs of our family.

When your furnace kicks in over the holidays and you're not sure where to turn.. I'm so thankful that this company returned my phone call. I appreciated their transparency and clarity which allowed me to make an informed decision. With various quotes thrown at you, it can be difficult to make the right decision and trust the solutions offered by different companies. TwinTech spoke the truth and delivered on their word. Neat, timely and clean service; the peace of mind I needed during a very cold holiday season. I highly recommend them!

Pulling a old unit out and installing a modern heating system! Required drilling holes in the wall for the newer pipes. We went from 70% (I am willing to bet it was far less due to lack of maintenance and just old) to 96% newer . It now feels warmer and more pressure and we use to run extra heaters and feel as though they are not necessary!

I received three quotes before deciding to choose Twintech. Dave's prices was much more reasonable than the competitors. I most appreciated their honest recommendations. Others tried to oversell their products and services. Thank you Dave!

My 19 year old furnace stopped working when the cold weather hit in November, and I was left without heat. I interviewed several companies and found TWINTECH HEATING and COOLING to be very knowledgeable, quick to respond to my inquiries and very competitively priced.
Dave provided all of the information and pricing ahead of time and set up the appointment for the installation. Greg and Mitch arrived on time to do the installation and worked quickly and efficiently to complete the job.
After the completion of the installation, Dave followed up to ensure that everything was working well and that I didn't have any concerns.
Overall, this was a low-stress and flawless experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend TWINTECH HEATING and COOLING to anyone that requires a new furnace.

Our 20 year old furnace broke down during the first cold weekend this past November and our usual HVAC company never returned our phone call. Their loss, missing out on a sale since we didn't want to spend much fixing an old furnace and our 40 year old air conditioner was also long overdue for replacement. We proceeded in obtaining three different quotes for furnace and air conditioner replacement, and proceeded with the one we received from Twintech.
Dave was friendly, knowledgable and accommodating to our schedule and provided with us with a price that fell in the middle of the three quotes that we had. We felt that the Amana furnace and air conditioner he quoted us on were the best products and value offered to us and felt most comfortable with the professionalism and reputation of Twintech.
Greg, Grant and Mitch were at our house for installation the day after we decided to proceed. The guys were friendly and informative, the job was completed efficiently and workmanship appears excellent. Our house is certainly much more comfortable with the new two-stage variable speed Amana furnace compared to the old clunker! And, we're looking forward to enjoying the new air conditioner once summer rolls around again. Thanks Twintech!
