Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhy Is My AC Running But Not Cooling Properly?
An AC that runs but doesn’t cool usually indicates restricted airflow, incorrect thermostat settings, dirty coils, low refrigerant, or duct leaks. The most common cause is a clogged air filter that starves the system of air so it runs without dropping temperature. Incorrect fan or mode settings can also keep the indoor coil from getting cold, and grime on the outdoor coil or a refrigerant issue reduces heat removal. Annual professional maintenance helps catch these early and restore efficiency. We service homes across the Mishawaka area with fast response, including 24/7 emergency AC repair when cooling fails in extreme heat.
Quick checks before a service visit:
- Set thermostat to Cool and Auto; lower the setpoint 3–5°F.
- Replace a dirty filter; confirm strong airflow at several vents.
- Clear leaves from the outdoor unit; keep 12–24 inches of open space.
If you see ice on the refrigerant line or these steps don’t help, turn the system off and book a diagnostic so a licensed tech can check refrigerant, coils, and ducts. <br/> Updated: 2026-06-08 <br/> Need help in Mishawaka, IN? Call (574) 367-8549 or book online.

AC compressor replacement cost varies by system and is confirmed only after an on-site diagnosis; Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling provides upfront pricing before any work starts. The compressor is one of the most expensive AC components, and failures often trace back to age, refrigerant problems, or electrical damage. In many cases we compare the repair against system age and efficiency to see if replacement of the unit is the smarter long-term move. Our techs routinely handle this job for homeowners around Granger and walk you through options in clear terms.
When we price a compressor replacement, we look at:
- System size and compressor type (single, two-stage, or variable)
- Refrigerant type and current charge condition
- Existing parts/labor warranty coverage
- Access, installation complexity, and overall system age
If your AC is not cooling or trips breakers, shut it off and schedule a diagnostic to prevent further damage. <br/> Updated: 2026-04-06 <br/> Need help in Granger, IN? Call (574) 367-8549 or book online.
