A/C COMPRESSOR — THE HEART OF YOUR COOLING SYSTEM

A/C COMPRESSOR — THE HEART OF YOUR COOLING SYSTEM

The compressor is one of the most important and expensive components in your A/C system. It circulates refrigerant between the indoor and outdoor units, allowing the system to remove heat from your home.

✔ Circulates refrigerant through the system
✔ Makes the cooling process possible
✔ Helps remove heat from your home
✔ Supports proper refrigerant pressure
✔ Provides reliable cooling performance
✔ Helps maintain indoor comfort

⚠️ A failing compressor can cause weak cooling, warm air, unusual noises, breaker trips, overheating, or a complete system shutdown.

Common warning signs include:

• A/C not cooling properly
• Compressor struggling to start
• Loud humming, grinding, or clicking noises
• Outdoor unit repeatedly shutting off
• Circuit breaker frequently tripping
• Unusually high electricity bills

Dirty condenser coils, low airflow, electrical problems, incorrect refrigerant levels, and refrigerant restrictions can place excessive strain on the compressor and shorten its life.

Protect the heart of your A/C system with regular maintenance and timely repairs.

A/C DRAIN PAN — YOUR FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE AGAINST WATER DAMAGE

A/C DRAIN PAN — YOUR FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE AGAINST WATER DAMAGE

As your A/C removes heat and humidity from the air, condensation forms around the evaporator coil. The drain pan collects this water and helps guide it safely into the condensate drain line.

✔ Collects condensation from the evaporator coil
✔ Helps prevent water from reaching your ceiling
✔ Protects areas surrounding the indoor unit
✔ Helps keep moisture away from electrical components
✔ Supports proper condensate drainage
✔ Reduces the risk of costly property damage

⚠️ A cracked, rusted, bent, incorrectly sized, or improperly tilted drain pan may allow water to overflow or leak into your home.

Warning signs of a drain-pan problem include:

• Water around the indoor unit
• Ceiling stains or moisture damage
• Rust or corrosion on the pan
• Standing water in the emergency pan
• Musty odors near the equipment
• Frequent float-switch activation

The drain pan, drain line, and float switch must be correctly installed and maintained to provide effective water protection.

A properly functioning drain pan helps protect both your A/C system and your home.
