When your air conditioner stops cooling, it’s easy to assume the problem is low refrigerant. For many homeowners, that’s the first thing that comes to mind. Many homeowners searching for AC in Brandon are surprised to learn that several other common problems can prevent their system from cooling properly.
At AirSouth Cooling and Heating, we believe informed homeowners make better decisions about their comfort systems. If your AC is running but your home still feels warm, here are some of the most common reasons why your system may not be cooling.



Maintenance services are one of the best things you can set up for your air conditioner. Think of it like this: you want to set up an appointment for an oil change and other small fixes for your car before it breaks down; you want to have the same mentality when it comes to caring for your AC system. Even if the maintenance appointment is later than usual (say, mid-summer, rather than in spring), this service is still going to help your system do its job more effectively.
Spring is just around the corner, and you know what that means? It means we are one step closer to summer! Of course, the thought of warm weather is plenty exciting, but in order for you to enjoy it, you are going to want to ensure that your air conditioner is ready to go!
There are few things more irritating than a stubborn air conditioner—one that simply refuses to stay on no matter how many times you start and restart it. You might even be tempted to give it a good kick to see if that somehow magically does the trick!
Do you remember the air filter that was installed with your air conditioner? If not, we urge you to go check on it right away!
