Answering North Alabama and Southern Tennessee’s AC Repair Questions
Here are straight answers to the questions homeowners ask us most.
An AC that runs but won’t cool the home is usually dealing with one of a few issues:
- Low refrigerant
- A dirty or blocked filter restricting airflow
- A frozen evaporator coil
- A failing component, like a capacitor or compressor
The only way to know for sure why your AC isn’t cooling is a proper diagnosis from a licensed HVAC technician. While it can be tempting to try a DIY fix, guessing at the cause and treating the wrong problem wastes time and money. Schedule service with a professional who can test the system, identify the failure point, and make the correct repair.
Warm air coming from the vents usually points to a refrigerant issue, a problem with the compressor, or a thermostat that isn’t communicating correctly with the system. It can also be caused by a dirty condenser coil that can’t release heat properly.
If your AC is blowing warm air, contact Bobby Terry Company, and we’ll schedule a diagnostic visit to find the cause.

Reset the breaker once and see if the system starts normally. If it trips again, don’t keep resetting it. A breaker that trips repeatedly is telling you something is wrong, whether that’s an electrical issue, a failing motor, a refrigerant problem causing the system to overload, or a short somewhere in the system.
At that point, the system needs a proper diagnosis before it runs again. Our team can test the unit and identify the cause before the problem gets worse.
Yes. Refrigerant leaks are one of the more common causes of an AC that won’t cool properly. Low refrigerant isn’t just a top-off situation; the leak needs to be found and repaired before the system is recharged, otherwise the problem comes back.
Our technicians locate the leak, make the repair, and recharge the system to manufacturer specifications.
