Ductless Mini-Splits

5 Signs Your Ductless Mini-Split Needs Service

In many cases, a timely repair can protect your unit from serious damage and keep repair service costs low. Here are five things to watch out for:

Unresponsive Ductless Air Conditioner Controls

If a mini-split air conditioner fails to respond when you turn it on or off or use the controls, there’s probably an electrical issue, or the reversing valve may need to be replaced.

Unusually High Electric Bills

HVAC systems lose efficiency with age. The average lifespan of a ductless AC is 12 to 15 years. In a younger unit, high energy consumption could signal anything from grungy equipment or a clogged air filter to short cycling or failing parts.

Reduction in Mini Split AC Cooling Output

Once all of the refrigerant has drained from the system, the air handler will simply operate as a fan and nothing more. Refrigerant can leak out slowly over time, resulting in a gradual decrease in cooling capacity.

Grinding Noise Coming from an Indoor Unit

These noises usually mean the oiled bearings used to reduce motor friction have worn down. Ignoring the noise could result in the air handler motor overheating and burning out.

Ice Formation on Your Outdoor Unit’s Cooling Coils

Reduced airflow can cause the evaporator coils to freeze over. This could be caused by a clogged air filter, a malfunctioning thermostat, a broken fan, a refrigerant leak, or a dirty coil.
