SPRINGBORO

There are several reasons why your Springboro area home’s HVAC system might not turn on. First, check your thermostat settings; it should be set to ON and AUTO. If your thermostat is set correctly, look at your air filters. A clogged and dirty filter can choke your HVAC system by blocking airflow. Once you’re sure your filters are clean, check your circuit breakers to be sure the HVAC circuit hasn’t tripped. If none of these things get your HVAC running properly, it’s time to call a professional. Your local HVAC technician will run a diagnostic and provide solutions to your home comfort problem.

If your air conditioner is running but not cooling your Springboro home, it’s telling you there’s something wrong! The most common cause is a refrigerant leak. The outdoor unit will make a rattling or jingling noise if this is the case. Another common problem is frozen coils. Crazy as it sounds, this is typically caused when your AC overheats! The easiest way to avoid these and other problems is by having AC maintenance done by an HVAC expert every spring.

To reset your HVAC system, follow these steps:

1. Set your thermostat to OFF.
2. Use the HVAC owner’s manual to locate the shutoff button on the unit. Turn off the unit.
3. Go to your breaker box and turn off the breaker to the HVAC system.
4. Wait 1 minute.
5. Turn the breaker back on. When power is restored to the HVAC unit, it should reset on its own.
6. Reset your thermostat to ON. Make sure the fan is set to AUTO.
