CONDENSER NOISE



Why does my Air Conditioner make so much noise when starting?

Sometime it is perfectly normal for air conditioning condensing units to make noise above normal when starting. This is due to factors similar to a car engine starting; the oil must travel before it starts to lubricate the moving parts. The other factor is that the compressor is not under pressure for the first few seconds of operating and this tends to make it louder in operation. This condition should only last for a few seconds and no more than say 10 seconds. If it is suddenly making more noise than usual or it lasts beyond a few seconds this is more than likely a symptom of another issue. You should then give us a call and schedule service.
