Boiler FaultsI really need a new air conditioner?

Then turn the air conditioning to cool the place. The place is cool. This is called the technician.

Shown. It controls the system. "I have bad news for you. The compressor is bad," he said. "We need a new condensing unit. Can I install to $ 1500 tomorrow."

You, the consumer is smart, are suspect. "Show me", they say. For what it does. The cover is the unit and you can see the compressor. That the power cycles. You hear and see the beginning of the fanbut it is clear that the compressor is there and does not work. Well, do you want? It does not work. It must be bad. So you sign the work order, and begin to appear where you can cut to pay for this sudden and costly repairs.

Well, congratulations, the miller. You've probably had.

Compressors goes wrong, of course. But most of the time when the compressor starts, the compressor is not to blame. Therefore, for your information and edification, is heremy list of things that prevent a compressor starting, more or less in order of frequency of occurrence, with an indication of the cost and time to repair properly. I stick with which the fan turns on and the compressor operates without a fan or compressor does the electrical problem is obviously easy to diagnose.

Now, if you decide to try one of these repairs yourself, be sure to disconnect the main circuit panel power switch beforebeginning.

The most common reason that the compressor does not start is not a start capacitor. This, according to cost between $ 6 to $ 25 and can be purchased over the counter from any source. The skill level required for the change is small. Anyone can do it if you correctly identify the parties and the owner of a screwdriver and a spanner. Some electrical tape and / or foam to help here too. The condenser is a metal that can (usually silver, but can be painted in green, dark gray,blue or black), which is located in the control panel inside the condenser unit. There will be two or three terminals on the top, each with four supports, the son left for the compressor (in the case of three terminals) for the fan motor. It will be held in place with a belt.

The best way to diagnose this capacitor is the change a new one. If you have a capacitor tester can be used. Otherwise, just get a new one. Remove the old capacitor (keeping track of the childwhere) and take it with you. The employee company supplies can help you get the right part again.

When you install the new part, which can be a different size than the old foam and adhesive tape can be very useful.

The most common reason not to initiate a connection to corrode and break the agreement. This can occur anywhere in a child associated with the compressor, but often the connections to the compressor, under the cover ofcompressor. The skill level to solve this problem is low. The cost of the parts is usually less than a dollar, but may work longer if necessary to replace all the children. Pop the clip that holds the cover of the electric compressor, then remove the cover. If there is a thread in his absence, out of the electrical box, and gently work the connector terminal corrosion. Be careful here, the terminal can also corrode and if you break it, you could find a way to make a connection with thecompressor (which require replacement of the compressor). Getting a proper crimp on the terminal (auto store parts, Radio Shack, or Walmart), clean the cable, connector crimp on the wire again, then back to the terminal of the compressor.

The failure is more common with thermal protector inside the cover on the electric compressor. The skill level is moderate to repair, replace and the skill level is low. However, you may need to be repaired becauseyou can not find a replacement. Usually, the child is running around and you must pay a new connection. Use appropriate techniques (resin-core solder and electricity – not plumbing solder) and younger. If you can find a new part will cost less than $ 5, general, and it is not necessary to weld the old part.

Next on the list is the sequence relays are in the unit. These are not common, but there are some units. The skill level for this repairis medium-high, mainly on the basis of the obligation to properly diagnose the problem. The level of skill to share the reality of the components is moderately low.

There may be an electronic relay in place of the sequence. The skill level is high for the diagnosis and level of skill to replace a moderate.

The following is the compressor. The level of expertise to properly diagnose this moderately high. The level of skill and equipment to replacevery high.

Next on the list have any pressure or temperature sensors that may be present in the system. The level of expertise to diagnose and replace them is high and the equipment needed to replace a moderate or high, depending on the details.

Now, in some units, with a lot of years with them, the compressor can work very well when it works, but can not start against the system load. In the latter case you can get a kit difficult start. It is basically a device that stores more thanenergy and, when the compressor is said in the beginning, the current outbreak of the second (which is a "kick ass"). This overload of the compressor and if you keep him alive, but is not compatible. On the other hand, when you get to that point, who cares if it burns. It starts anyway.

The basic kit costs about $ 40 takes and often can do the job. Of course, in this case is likely to change the unit in a couple of years, but a few years from $ 40.The diagnosis of the problem is the ability to fairly high. Installing the Starter Kit is difficult to moderate capacity.

And 'more or less in order. As you can see, a power compressor is a relatively low probability in a given case. The most common problems are things that anyone with a basic competence with the tools can be arranged.

Boiler FaultsAdvantages and disadvantages of an inverter air conditioner

When choosing an inverter air conditioner for home use, you must choose the best product available. A better quality of the two AC converters is manufactured by Fujitsu and Daikin.
