My AC is making a rattling sound; What should I do?
If you find your AC unit making a rattling sound, then it could be one of four typical AC problems, some of them you can even fix yourself!
- Debris can be one issue. Outdoor AC units can have debris fall into them, so it’s good to check them regularly. It is recommended to have a professional clear the debris rather than attempting on your own.
- A displaced fan blade can be another culprit. A professional will need to take a look and determine if it can be fixed or if it needs to be replaced.
- A damaged motor could cause rattling and will need to be replaced by a professional.
- One thing you can fix on your own is a loose panel. Simply check all of the panels on your AC unit and tighten down any screws that may be loose.
If all else fails, give us a call and have a trained technician take a look. We’ll be able to quickly uncover the underlying issue and offer fast and affordable solutions.
