AC Not Turning On in Annandale On Hudson, NY

AC not turning on in Annandale On Hudson, NY is a control problem more often than a mechanical one. The thermostat calls for cooling, nothing happens, and the house heats up. Our crew starts on the low voltage side because that is where the answer usually is.

The 24 volt control circuit runs from a transformer in the air handler or furnace to the thermostat and out to the condenser. A blown 3 amp fuse on the control board kills the whole thing. So does a float switch in the drain pan that tripped because the condensate line backed up. That safety switch is doing its job, and the real fix is clearing the drain line.

Other causes on our list: dead thermostat batteries, a loose wire at the thermostat base, a tripped breaker at the panel, a pulled disconnect at the outdoor unit and a failed transformer. On older systems we sometimes find a rodent has chewed the thermostat cable where it runs along the foundation.

We test each point with a meter and show you the reading. Call (866) 703-1217 when your AC not turning on leaves you guessing.

Central AC Repair FAQs

Common questions about central AC repair

Questions we hear about AC Not Turning On in Annandale On Hudson, NY.

Talk to our crew
How much does central AC repair cost?
It depends on the part. A capacitor or contactor is a small repair. A refrigerant leak or a compressor is a much bigger one. We diagnose first, then give you the price before any work starts, so you decide with the number in front of you.
How often should I get an AC tune up?
Once a year, in spring, before the first long stretch of hot weather. In long cooling season states, some homeowners book a second check in late summer. A yearly AC tune up catches weak capacitors, pitted contactors and clogged drain lines while they are still cheap fixes.
Why is there ice on my AC lines?
Ice forms when the indoor coil gets too cold, usually from low airflow (dirty filter, dirty coil, weak blower) or low refrigerant charge. Turn cooling off and run the fan to thaw it, then call us. Running a frozen system can damage the compressor.
How long does a central AC system usually last?
Many central air systems run 12 to 15 years with regular maintenance. Units near the coast, where salt air corrodes coils, and units in very long cooling seasons often wear out sooner. Age alone is not a reason to replace, but it factors into repair decisions.
Do you work on heat pumps and furnaces too?
Our focus is central air conditioning: split systems and packaged units, the outdoor condenser and the indoor coil and air handler. Call (866) 703-1217 and tell us what you have, and we'll let you know if it is a job for our crew.
