A homeowner in Quitman, TX called us because one of their air conditioning units had stopped working. Our technician quickly diagnosed the problem — a failed dual run capacitor. This small but critical component allows the compressor and fan motor to start and run properly. When it fails, the system simply won't operate.
Family Air HVAC Services replaced the dual run capacitor and performed a full check of the system to make sure everything else was in good shape. The unit was back up and running, cooling the home properly before we left.
If your air conditioner suddenly stops working, a faulty capacitor is one of the most common causes. Catching and fixing it quickly helps prevent further damage to the system.
