Why is My Electic Bill So High? - Carrier Air Conditioner Repair

Homeowners noticed that electric bills skyrocketed after their Carrier air conditioner would have taken longer to get to the desired temperature. Only a few weeks of such functioning caused a big bite in the budget. Now, AC just puts ambient air to air temperature similar to outside.

When you turn on your air conditioner, the blower motor activates. It draws in air from your home through the return air ducts. Depending on whether you are using the air conditioner for cooling or the heating function (in the case of a heat pump or a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system), the blower motor directs the air through the appropriate coils or heat exchangers. If the blower motor is faulty, your appliance won't maintain proper temperature mode.

The same goes for a capacitor. Capacitors in an air conditioning system play a critical role in ensuring that the compressor and the condenser fan motor start correctly and operate efficiently. The motors may not start reliably without the capacitors, and the system's performance could suffer. If a capacitor fails or becomes faulty, it can lead to issues like the compressor not starting or the air conditioner not cooling properly.
