I need to replace my AC unit. I built the home 15 years ago and I still have the same unit. The unit stopped working in September. I have a 2-story, 2100 sq ft. home and of course I want a good unit for an affordable price.

I own a 1200 sq ft house, two story. I want to replace my old a/c heating unit with new. I want a split system to control the upstairs and downstairs separately. I have a gas line to the house but I prefer full electric, but am willing to go back to gas for heat if it makes sense. I have been dealing with low airflow for a long time and expect a new system will end that problem too. I'm thinking 3 to 3 1/2 ton 13 seer. Need airflow!

An air conditioner is a sophisticated piece of machinery, and AC repairs of your unit should be trusted only to a professional. Unless you have above average AC repair skills, it's not recommended that you attempt any air conditioner troubleshooting on your own. One of the biggest causes of air conditioner problems is improper maintenance. Keeping your unit clean and free of debris is something every home owner can do. Simply remove the protective cover, and clean dust and dirt off the condenser fins. Hose down the fins if necessary, taking care to avoid splashing water on the motor and wiring. Accumulation of dust on the fins can reduce the cooling efficiency of your unit. Major AC repair problems like compressor failure, can also develop.
Improper installation of your air conditioner is also a leading cause of air conditioner problems. For instance, if your AC technician did not charge the correct amount of refrigerant during installation, the unit can quickly develop leaks. Improper operating procedures can also lead to air conditioner repair problems. For instance, switching air conditioners on and off frequently can cause the compressor and fan controls to wear out. if your air conditioner does not switch on immediately, check to see if the thermostat has been set to "cool". It should also be set to below the room temperature. Check if the breaker has tripped or if a fuse has blown. If you notice grinding noises in your blower, call your AC repair technician. Usually, it's a problem with improper belt alignment. If you notice pools of water accumulating next to the unit, check to see if there is a leak in one of the tubes. If not, it could be a problem with the pump.
