Brevard's Trusted AC & Plumbing Pros
Brevard's Trusted AC & Plumbing Pros
Picture this: It’s a typical Brevard County scorcher—the kind where your flip-flops melt on the driveway and even the iguanas are looking for shade—and all you want is to kick back in your cool, air-conditioned sanctuary. But instead, your AC is blowing warm air—or worse, no air at all. We get it; the discomfort and frustration are real. Not only does it make your home feel like a sauna, but it also leaves you staring at that ever-climbing energy bill wondering where all your hard-earned money is going.
Before you start panicking, take a deep breath. While an AC that’s not blowing cold air might seem like the beginning of a horror story, it’s usually something fixable. You don’t have to endure the heat or rack up more expenses. With the right help, your home can be cool and comfortable again in no time. Don’t let the heat win—call us now, and let’s get your AC back to its cooling best!
It’s a big deal when your AC stops doing its job, and understanding why this happens can help you find the quickest route to a cool, comfortable home again. There’s not just one culprit here—oh no, the reasons range from minor hiccups to more serious mechanical issues. But fear not; we’re breaking them down in an easy-to-digest way so you can find your AC’s mystery diagnosis and breathe easy again.
You might not think twice about your air filter until it’s too late. Dirty or clogged filters restrict airflow, which forces your AC system to work overtime. Picture this: your AC is trying to blow cool air, but it’s suffocating, stuck behind a dusty, clogged filter. It can’t breathe, and neither can you. When airflow is restricted, the system overwhelms and can’t cool your home properly. Not to mention, it’s wasting energy like a marathon runner sprinting without a break.
The fix? Cleaning or replacing your air filters regularly. It’s a small maintenance task that can keep your AC running efficiently and your air clean.
Refrigerant is the magic juice that makes your AC blow cold air in the first place. If your system is low on refrigerant, it can’t cool the air effectively. Now, refrigerant doesn’t just disappear—if you’re low, it’s usually a sign of a leak somewhere in your system. Trust us; ignoring this issue won’t just leave you sweltering; it can cause major damage to your system over time, especially the compressor, which can be a pricey repair.
If your AC is low on refrigerant, you’ll need a professional to patch up the leak and refill the refrigerant. Once done, your system can go back to chilling as it should.
Your thermostat is the brain of the operation. It tells your AC when to cool, how much to cool, and when to stop. But if your thermostat is malfunctioning, it’s like trying to navigate a road trip with a broken GPS. Sometimes, it misreads the temperature, sending the wrong signals to your AC to stop cooling. Or, it just gives up entirely, leaving your home hotter than a summer beach day.
If you’re noticing inconsistent cooling, your thermostat could be the culprit. The good news? A simple recalibration or even a replacement with a new, energy-efficient model can get things back on track, ensuring the right temperature is maintained throughout your home.
Imagine this: your evaporator coils, which should be absorbing heat and cooling your air, are instead frozen solid. This can happen when airflow is restricted (hello, dirty filter!) or refrigerant leaks. Frozen coils prevent the AC from doing its job, causing the system to shut off or blow warm air. Not only does this leave you feeling like you’re in the middle of a desert, but it can also cause long-term damage if not addressed.
You’ll need a professional to thaw those coils out and fix the root cause—cleaning the air filter or addressing the refrigerant leak. Once thawed and repaired, your system will be back to its usual cool self.
The compressor is your AC’s heartbeat and is responsible for circulating refrigerant through the system. If the compressor is overheating, it can’t do its job effectively, which means you won’t get cold air. This usually happens due to poor maintenance, dirty coils, or even electrical issues. When the compressor gets stressed, it can shut down prematurely, leaving your AC blowing warm air instead of that refreshing cool breeze.
Fixing an overheating compressor can involve cleaning the coils or replacing the motor or other components. But don’t worry—you don’t have to deal with it alone. Our team at American Air & Plumbing can diagnose the issue and get your compressor back in shape.
A Goldilocks problem, if you will. If your AC is too large or too small for your space, it will struggle. An oversized unit cools too quickly, causing it to cycle on and off frequently (aka short cycling), which leads to inefficiency and warmer temps. On the other hand, an undersized unit works overtime, trying and failing to cool your home, which causes it to run constantly. In both cases, you’re left dealing with high energy bills and a system that’s constantly working against itself.
The fix? An AC sizing consultation can help determine if your unit is the right size for your home. If it’s not, we’ll guide you toward a more efficient system that can deliver the cold air you need without the hassle.

When your AC isn’t blowing cold air, it’s more than just a minor inconvenience—it’s a significant disruption to your comfort and your wallet. Here’s how:
A home that’s too warm is just plain uncomfortable. Whether you’re winding down from a beach day, trying to sleep without sweating through your sheets, or hosting a backyard BBQ, a malfunctioning AC means you’re fighting the elements inside your home. Inconsistent cooling can leave you with hot spots and cold spots, making it impossible to enjoy your living space.
An AC that isn’t functioning properly is bound to use more energy. If it’s constantly running in overdrive or cycling on and off, your electricity bill will skyrocket. Fixing the problem not only saves you from constant discomfort but also reduces your energy consumption, making your home more energy-efficient.
Ignoring the issue could lead to more significant problems down the road. A neglected compressor, leaking refrigerant, or clogged filter could cause more extensive—and expensive—damage to your system, requiring costly repairs or even a full replacement. Catching and fixing the problem early can save you thousands in repairs.
