If the cool air has stopped flowing, the first thing you should do is check your thermostat.

Here are the steps you should take:

• Check Your Thermostat: If your thermostat display is blank, change the batteries.
• If the display is still blank:  Remove the thermostat from the wall and check the wires to make sure it’s getting power. Use a multimeter to check the voltage. (Electricians Only)
• Check your fuse box:  See if any fuses have been blown or tripped. If the fuses look good, locate the switch connected to your central A/C and switch it on and off to reset the connection.
• Check Condenser: If it’s getting power, but the screen is still blank, go outside and check the condenser to see if a fuse has been tripped.
• Call Top Gun Heating & Air services: If your thermostat still isn’t working, it may be time to replace it.

Replacing your air conditioner is an investment, and can lower utility bills by as much as 60%.

Here are some things to consider:

• The age of your air conditioner. The life of an air conditioner is somewhere between 10 and 20 years. So, if your air conditioner is more than 10 years old, it may be time for a replacement.
• Rising energy bills. As air conditioners get older, they become less energy efficient. To see if your air conditioner is losing efficiency, compare your utility bills over the past few summers. If your costs are rising, it could be a sign that your air conditioner is wearing out.
• Leaking refrigerant. Not only is refrigerant expensive, but refrigerant leaks will cause the compressor to eventually go out. The type of refrigerant that your air conditioner needs may also cause you problems down the road.
• The cost of repair. Call Top Gun Heating & Air services to get a free quote on repair costs. If it’s more than $3,000, it is probably cheaper to buy a new unit.
