If you have poor airflow and notice that your indoor temperatures are rising, it may be a sign that your fan motor, dirty filters, or coil may be having a problem.
Your AC Unit Completely Stops Running
If your unit stops running, it may mean that something is wrong with its sensors or capacitors. Also, it may signal extreme problems with major parts like the compressor.

If you notice that your monthly utility bills are exceptionally high, your unit may be running harder than it should. Be a sign that it is time for an AC inspection to identify the issue before it gets worse.
