Common Problems
AC Services Problems We See in Melrose
These are the issues our technicians deal with most often. If something sounds familiar, give us a call.
Refrigerant Leaks
High humidity accelerates corrosion on copper refrigerant lines. Signs include ice on the evaporator coil, reduced cooling, and higher energy bills.
Capacitor Failures
Florida's heat stress on capacitors is a leading cause of AC breakdowns. Symptoms include the unit humming but not starting, or intermittent cooling.
Clogged Condensate Drains
High humidity means your AC removes 15-20 gallons of moisture daily. Clogged drains cause water damage, musty odors, and system shutdowns.
Compressor Issues
Constant summer operation stresses compressors. Warning signs include loud noises, tripped breakers, or the unit running but not cooling.

FAQs
AC Services Questions from Melrose Homeowners
helpHow often should I service my AC in Florida?
We recommend twice-yearly maintenance in North Central Florida—once in early spring before the cooling season and once in fall. The extended runtime and high humidity here accelerate wear compared to northern climates.
helpWhy is my AC running constantly but not cooling?
This typically indicates low refrigerant, a dirty evaporator coil, or an undersized system. In Florida's heat, even a 10% refrigerant loss can reduce cooling capacity by 20%. Call us for a diagnostic—we'll identify the exact cause.
helpWhat SEER rating should I choose for a new AC in Florida?
For the Gainesville area, we recommend 16+ SEER2 systems. The higher efficiency pays off quickly given our 8-10 month cooling season. Variable-speed systems also remove more humidity, improving comfort significantly.
