CONTACTOR — THE SWITCH THAT POWERS YOUR A/C

CONTACTOR — THE SWITCH THAT POWERS YOUR A/C

Your A/C contactor is an essential electrical component that controls the flow of power to your compressor and outdoor unit. When your thermostat calls for cooling, the contactor makes it happen.

✔ Sends power to the compressor & fan
✔ Ensures proper system start/stop
✔ Supports reliable operation
✔ Helps maintain consistent cooling
✔ Keeps your system running safely

⚠️ A worn or damaged contactor can cause your A/C to fail, short cycle, or not turn on at all.

Common causes of contactor issues:
• Burnt or pitted contact points
• Electrical wear over time
• Dirt, insects, or debris inside the unit
• Voltage issues

Warning signs:
• A/C not turning on
• Clicking noise from outdoor unit
• System turning on and off repeatedly
• Outdoor unit not running
• Weak or no cooling

Ignoring a faulty contactor can lead to bigger electrical problems and system failure.

Regular maintenance helps catch contactor wear before it becomes a costly repair.

Small switch. Big role in your comfort. ❄️

CAPACITOR — THE START & RUN POWER OF YOUR A/C

CAPACITOR — THE START & RUN POWER OF YOUR A/C

Your A/C capacitor gives the boost your system needs to start and keep key components running—especially the compressor and fan motor.

✔ Helps the compressor start smoothly
✔ Keeps the fan motor running properly
✔ Supports efficient system operation
✔ Reduces strain on electrical components
✔ Helps prevent unexpected breakdowns

⚠️ A weak or failed capacitor can stop your A/C from turning on or cause it to struggle while running.

Common signs of a bad capacitor:
• A/C won’t start
• Humming noise from unit
• Fan not spinning
• System turns off randomly
• Warm air from vents

Heat, age, and constant use wear out capacitors over time—especially in Texas weather.

Regular maintenance helps catch capacitor issues before they lead to bigger problems.

Small part. Big impact on your A/C performance.

COMPRESSOR — THE HEART OF YOUR A/C SYSTEM

COMPRESSOR — THE HEART OF YOUR A/C SYSTEM

Your A/C compressor is the most important component in your system. It pumps refrigerant and makes the entire cooling process possible.

✔ Circulates refrigerant through the system
✔ Enables heat removal from your home
✔ Delivers strong, consistent cooling
✔ Supports overall system performance
✔ Keeps your home comfortable

⚠️ If the compressor fails, your A/C won’t cool at all—and repairs can be expensive.

Common causes of compressor issues:
• Low or high refrigerant levels
• Dirty condenser coil
• Electrical problems
• Overheating from lack of maintenance
• System age and wear

Warning signs:
• Warm air from vents
• Loud or unusual noises
• System not turning on
• Tripping breakers
• Weak or no cooling

Ignoring early signs can lead to complete system failure.

Regular maintenance helps protect your compressor and avoid costly repairs.

Protect the heart of your A/C. ❄️

PRESSURE SWITCH — PROTECTS YOUR A/C SYSTEM

PRESSURE SWITCH — PROTECTS YOUR A/C SYSTEM

Your A/C pressure switches (high & low) are critical safety devices that monitor refrigerant pressure and shut the system down when something isn’t right.

✔ Protects the compressor from damage
✔ Prevents overheating and freezing
✔ Keeps refrigerant pressures balanced
✔ Helps avoid costly repairs
✔ Supports safe system operation

⚠️ If a pressure switch trips, it’s usually a warning sign—not something to ignore.

Common causes:
• Dirty condenser or evaporator coil
• Low refrigerant (possible leak)
• Overcharged system
• Blocked airflow
• Fan or electrical issues

Warning signs:
• A/C shutting off suddenly
• System not cooling properly
• Short cycling
• Ice on lines or coil
• Unit not turning on

Ignoring pressure issues can lead to major system failure, especially compressor damage.

Routine maintenance helps keep pressures in range and your system running safely.

Small switches, big protection. ❄️

EVAPORATOR COIL — THE HEART OF YOUR COOLING

EVAPORATOR COIL — THE HEART OF YOUR COOLING

Your A/C evaporator coil is responsible for absorbing heat from inside your home, allowing cool air to circulate through your system.

✔ Removes heat from indoor air
✔ Delivers strong, consistent cooling
✔ Improves energy efficiency
✔ Supports proper airflow
✔ Keeps your home comfortable

⚠️ A dirty or damaged evaporator coil can reduce cooling, increase energy bills, and even cause your system to freeze up.

Common signs of issues:
• Weak or warm airflow
• Ice buildup on the coil or lines
• Higher electric bills
• Musty or dirty smell
• System running longer than usual

Dust, dirt, and lack of maintenance can block the coil over time, restricting airflow and performance.

Regular maintenance helps keep the evaporator coil clean and your system running efficiently.
