What is that Air Conditioner Noise?
At times your home can make some pretty weird noises. Floorboard creaking, house settling, and some noises are expected, and there is nothing to worry about. What if you start to hear strange noises and you find out? Is it coming from your AC? Under regular operation, your AC system should not be making noise that you may deem “weird” or “not normal. We will go over some everyday noises. What may cause the noise, and in some cases, what can you do to fix it?
Loud Buzzing
Most times, the loud buzzing noise comes from an obstruction in the fan motor. If the buzzing is coming from your outdoor unit. Make sure the power is turned off, and look inside the top grille to see. You can see an obstruction.
It may be harder to locate the indoor fan motor if it comes from inside. The power is off, and I visually inspect it as well. If you can see no obstructions, there may be something wrong mechanically with the fan motor, in which case you need to schedule services of air conditioning repair Mesa. Give us a call to send out one of our service technicians to diagnose it for you.
Loud Rattling
If you hear a rattling noise coming from your air conditioning Mesa AZ, a likely culprit may be the fan blade for your outdoor unit. Sometimes, these can come loose and start hitting the insides of the condenser coils. If this is the case, turn your system off and give Sharp Air Conditioning & Heating a call before the blade can do further damage. Other times, this rattling can also come from a loose fan motor, which would need professional diagnosis and repair.
