AC Repair – Bad Condenser Fan Motor

Is Your Condenser Fan Motor About to Blow?

ac-repair-tampa-bad-condenser-fan-motor

When you turn on your air conditioning, you expect to hear and feel a predictable sensation. The first sound is the exterior unit starting up. This includes the condenser. The condenser takes high-pressure refrigerant gas and lets it release all the heat collected by the refrigerant’s trip through the interior evaporator coil. The fan blows air across the condenser coil to allow the heat to dissipate.

If that fan stops working, it prevents the cooling process. This means that the condenser can’t release the heat, which often equals no cooling in the home. With these tips and expert AC Repair in Tampa, you can find the source and get it solved promptly.

Signs of Fan Problems

The condenser fan works similarly to other fans you have seen. The motor powers the fan, which is a series of blades that turn to create wind. When the fan motor is faulty, there will be several obvious signs:

  • Fan turns on or off intermittently or at inappropriate times
  • Warm air blowing
  • Noisy fan
  • Burning smell

A burning smell is an indication that the motor is overheating or about to quit. And if you aren’t hearing any sound at all from the fan, the motor may have died completely.

Causes of Condenser Fan Issues

Every time your air conditioning technician recommends that you trim back hedges around the exterior unit, they are trying to minimize problems like this. Condenser fan motor problems can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

  • Poor airflow
  • Wrong size capacitor or fan blade
  • Failed condenser

Poor airflow can be pretty easy to solve, if your fan motor is not past saving. It is important to schedule air conditioning repair when you observe this kind of issue. As you can see, DIY fixes like replacing a bad capacitor or fan blade with the wrong part can cause even more problems than they solve.
