Does your AC get a little noisy from time to time? It\u2019s a machine that\u2019s forcing air through a series of ducts and vents\u2013it\u2019s not exactly silent, but there are some sounds it really shouldn\u2019t make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, if it\u2019s making these sounds, it could signal that you need AC repair in Winter Park, FL<\/a>. Let\u2019s talk about what they are, what they mean, and how serious these sounds can really be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Abrupt Banging Sound<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sounds like someone\u2019s rapping on your screen door outside? Air conditioners can produce a large banging sound that normally comes from the AC cabinet outside, which is why it may sound like it\u2019s an external noise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When parts come loose, they vibrate and bang around. They can eventually become loose enough to damage other components in the system or stop your AC from working altogether. We put this on the top of the list for a reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clicking or Light Clapping Noises<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your thermostat sends a signal to your air conditioner, and that produces a slightly audible click on some thermostats. That\u2019s good\u2013it means it\u2019s trying to communicate with the AC, and if the AC comes alive and starts working after, it’s in good working order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when that clicking noise just doesn\u2019t stop, it\u2019s a problem. It usually indicates that there\u2019s an electrical issue. If that clicking isn\u2019t coming from its usual place at the thermostat, it could be wiring further inside of your AC. In either case, it\u2019s electrical, and a professional should take a look at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subtle Humming or Buzzing Noises<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Buzzing noises are normally related to electrical problems in some fashion. Anything could be wrong since your AC uses electricity in every component, so this is hard to diagnose just from listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make it clear, you should never try to repair electrical problems on your own<\/strong>. There\u2019s too much that can go wrong and your safety isn\u2019t worth the risk. Contact a professional HVAC technician to handle this for you so you don\u2019t end up with a bigger problem than a faulty air conditioner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wailing Noise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When metal pieces rub against one another in normal operation, it doesn\u2019t produce a sound. Do you know why? The pieces of metal are lubricated, so the fraction is negated and there\u2019s no sound or damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when you can hear an audible screeching or wailing sound, it sounds like a ghost is haunting your air conditioner. The lubricant has run dry, and the sound isn\u2019t the only problem\u2013now your AC components are under additional stress, and there\u2019s no telling how much it can impact the rest of your machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
