Saturday in Henry County and the a/c stopped

Image
 Customer said the inside is on but the a/c outside is not running. I told them to check breakers. It was on at breaker. I told them to turn it off until a technician can get there. I was able to get there in 45 minutes on a Saturday. I found the wires was melted on the capacitor. The capacitor was melted at the top. Do not touch this. Aaac service had the correct size on the truck. It was running within 1hr from initial call.  The furnace tries to come on but it won't light The furnace flames come on but the blower doesn't The blower runs constantly but no heat The flames come on but go right out The thermostat clicks on but the furnace never starts The thermostat clicks on but the air conditioner won't start The fan comes on but its not cooling The fan on a/c isn't spinning The air conditioner is buzzing and won't come on The a/c makes a loud noise but doesn't start The ac has a humming but not coming on The air conditioner is running but not cooling

Furnace won't start reason #5 resolved

Image
 The gas was turned off so someone could work on the line or other reasons. Now the gas is on, but the furnace won't light. The system went into lockout. It will try to light 3 times then locks out. To reset it turn thermostat off. Turn the breaker to furnace off. It is in the gray panel box where the power is. Turn it all back on. If the furnace doesn't start in 5 minutes, do it again.   Gas co put a lock on this one. It is shiny metal. Call them back. Do not let the furnace try to light without gas.  Issues we can fix fast The furnace tries to come on but it won't light The furnace flames come on but the blower doesn't The blower runs constantly but no heat The flames come on but go right out The thermostat clicks on but the furnace never starts The thermostat clicks on but the air conditioner won't start The fan comes on but its not cooling The fan on a/c isn't spinning The air conditioner is buzzing and won't come on The a/c makes a loud noise but doesn&

The a/c would not come on, resolved today

So the a/c would not come on. This is a good reason not to fix it yourself. I found the disconnect melted. You can get shocked or start a fire. Always call for service.  Turned off the power and looked inside the a/c. Everything was ok. Removed disconnect cover to find a melted mess. This should have tripped the breaker but didn't, making this a dangerous job. Call for service I'm sure you would have been shocked. Not me, I turn off breakers 1st on a call like this.  Replaced the disconnect and burned wires , tested the capacitor. I put a hard start on this one since it had a high amp draw at start up. This was $285 with service call labor and parts. Not all jobs are the same. 

Lightning near miss on a/c

  Monday 12 February 2024 Lightning hit heat pump or a/c Furnace repair in Mcdonough A/c hit by lightning. This air conditioner caught on fire after a capacitor blew out. Lightning would have gotten the compressor too. I replace all wires and parts. It still works. Sometimes it is better to replace the system but it worked out ok to replace wires and stuff. Insurance will not pay unless it is hit by lightning. Home warranty will not pay for this.  Posted by  Aaac service heating and air Mcdonough   at  09:16   Email This BlogThis!
