The ac unit was blowing out cold air yesterday but at some point last night I noticed it was getting hotter in the house I went outside and the unit was running but sounded a little funny I felt it and it was hot and the fan on top of the unit was not turning so I turned it off at the breaker box what does the proble sound like and cost.

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.

Air Conditioning - Air Conditioning Questions
1.40Where are the air conditioners in high rise apartment buildings and skyscrapers in the USA?
Q.I'm living in Shenzhen, People's Republic of China. I live on the 9th floor of our 34 floor apartment building, and just had to have our external air conditioning serviced. I was alarmed and amazed as our air conditioning technician tied a rope around himself, and then went out the window to the external air conditioning unit to give it a dose of freon (as I held the rope!). My gf asked, what do they do in the USA?
A.In the USA buildings have central Air-Conditioning and the equipment is usually located on the roof of the building.
1.30When you turn the air conditioning on in your home?
Q.Should there be a small amount of water coming from the base of the unit inside the house? I can't figure out if it's the air conditioning unit or a leaking water heater?
A.No there should not...most likely the drain is stopped up and will need cleaning...this very easy and you can do it yourself ....just remove front cover of unit drain line should be visible along with two copper a/c lines...remove drain line ..flush with water hose ...run some bleach down it and reassemble....this should solve your problem...
1.30What is a reasonable price range to have refrigerant service done to a 2.5 ton air conditioning unit?
Q.Unit is only 5 yrs. old, not sure if I'm quoting right I had about 5lbs. of pressure they took it up to 60-70 I believe.
A.Average range $175- $250. unless there is a leak on the line. than it's more.
1.20When to service your house air conditioning unit?
Q.How often do you need to service your home air conditioning unit, our house is two years old.
A.Once a year...springtime...
1.20Outside central air conditioning unit on, blowing air, sometimes a lot, sometimes not, sometimes hot?
Q.I have an outside central air conditioning unit, it is approx. 80 degrees outside and extremely humid, also very hot inside the house with fans running. The air is set to 70*, yet the air coming out of the vents feels to be room temperature and is NOT cooling the house down. Approx. two months ago, the landlord had a technician come out, and he said we had a slow freon leak, and although he filled it with freon, I was told he did not fix the leak. What is causing the air conditioner to do this? I cannot go in 100* weather without air conditioning. Any help would be appreciated :) and thanks in advance!
A.It almost sounds like the tech overcharged the unit. Either way he is supposed to fix the leak. He was not supposed to add refrigerant to a system known to be leaking.
Make sure the fan is working on the outside unit. If it is not the system has no way to remove the heat from your house.
Ask your landlord to call a different tech out to look at it. This guy was a fool.
1.20Annoying humming noise after ducts were cleaned out?
Q.I just got the ducts in my house cleaned out to get rid of pet dander and help me breathe better. The air conditioning is running great now and seems cleaner to breathe in. The only problem is that there is a loud humming noise coming from the big vent on the wall. It only comes from this big vent, and does not resonate from any of the vents on the ground. The big vent is not the original big vent; my contractor replaced it after the ducts were cleaned because the old big vent was dirty.
My contractor says the noise is a result of the air running so openly now, but I'm having a hard time buying that. I think it is the replacement vent vibrating when the air pushes through it. Any thoughts? I'm pretty sure he threw away the old big vent.
A.Call him back and tell him your not satisfied.Lining the duct with duct insulation should help.I think your right about the vibration.
1.20Who should I call to install an exhaust fan in my bathroom? And electrician or an air conditioning company?
Q.We desperately need an exhaust fan installed in our upstairs bathroom. There is one tiny window, which is not enough to expel all of the moisture (esp. living in FL!)... and no air conditioning vent. The bathroom is located on an exterior wall so I wouldn't think it would be too complicated. I just don't know who I should call to do it.
A.Actually, either one can do this job. When building new houses the electrician sets the fan housing and runs the wires, then the AC man runs the duct work when he roughs in his AC unit. Since there's gonna be a switch involved, I'd call an electrician first.
1.10How much should I expect to pay to get my air conditioning vents cleaned?
Q.In a 2400 sq. ft. house?
A.On the average $30.00 per vent plus a $40 set up fee per system price is usaully dictated by the numbers of vents in your house not the sqft
