AC Not Keeping Up in the Afternoons in Van Buren, AR (Indoor and Outdoor Coil Cleaning)

A Van Buren Comfort Club (our maintenance plan) member called because the AC was not cooling in the afternoons and was only working part of the time.

What Our Technician Found

Our technician found heavy dirt built up on the outdoor coil (the part that releases heat outside) and on the indoor coil (the part that cools the air). Dirty coils make the system work harder, and the hottest part of the day is when it shows the most.

What We Completed

  • Took the outdoor unit apart for a deep coil cleaning.
  • Cleaned the outdoor coil and the base of the unit.
  • Cleaned the indoor coil and treated it to help keep mold and mildew from growing.
  • Checked the system after the cleaning.

The Result

Both coils are clean, so the system can move heat the way it should. Learn more about our AC repair.

What Homeowners Can Learn From This Job

  • Afternoon struggles often point to dirty coils. The system has the least room to spare when it is hottest.
  • Look at your outdoor unit. If the coil looks fuzzy or gray, it needs cleaning.
  • The indoor coil gets dirty too. A good filter helps protect it.
