CONTACTOR — STARTS YOUR A/C SYSTEM

CONTACTOR — STARTS YOUR A/C SYSTEM

Your A/C contactor is an electrical switch that sends power to the compressor and condenser fan when your thermostat calls for cooling.

✔ Helps your system start properly
✔ Controls power to major components
✔ Supports reliable cooling performance
✔ Works with thermostat signals
✔ Keeps system operating efficiently

⚠️ A worn or failed contactor can cause your A/C not to start, run nonstop, or short cycle.

Common signs:
• Outdoor unit not turning on
• Clicking noises from condenser
• A/C runs continuously
• Warm air inside home
• Intermittent cooling problems

Regular maintenance helps inspect contact points before failure happens.

Small part, big job — don’t overlook your A/C contactor.

DRAIN PAN — SMALL PART, BIG PROTECTION

DRAIN PAN — SMALL PART, BIG PROTECTION

Your A/C drain pan collects condensation water from the evaporator coil and helps direct it safely to the drain line.
If the drain pan is damaged, rusted, or overflowing, it can lead to serious water damage.

✔ Helps prevent ceiling and wall leaks
✔ Protects floors and surrounding areas
✔ Supports proper drainage
✔ Reduces risk of mold and moisture issues
✔ Keeps your system operating safely

⚠️ A bad drain pan can cause water overflow, stains, mold growth, and shutdowns if float switches activate.

Common signs:
• Water around indoor unit
• Rusted or cracked pan
• Ceiling stains
• Musty odors
• A/C shutting off unexpectedly

Regular inspections help catch drain pan issues before they become expensive repairs.

Protect your home — don’t overlook your A/C drain pan.
