If your air conditioner is running but your house still feels warm, you’re likely frustrated—and possibly uncomfortable. This is a common issue we help fix across Kansas City, Liberty, Overland Park, and nearby areas.
Let’s break down the top reasons your AC isn’t cooling properly, and what you can do about it.
❄️ 1. Dirty Air Filter
When filters are clogged with dust or pet hair, air can’t flow properly. This causes your evaporator coil to freeze, making it hard for your AC to cool your home.
✅ Fix: Change your filter every 1–2 months. If you haven’t done this recently, it’s the first thing to try.

⚠️ 2. Low Refrigerant Levels
Your AC needs refrigerant to absorb heat. If there’s a leak, your system will blow warm air—even while running constantly.
Watch for:
- Ice buildup on the outdoor unit
- Gurgling or hissing noises
- High humidity indoors
✅ Fix: You’ll need a licensed tech to find the leak, repair it, and recharge the system.

🧠 3. Thermostat Malfunction
Sometimes the issue isn’t the system—it’s the thermostat. If it’s miscalibrated or placed in direct sunlight, it can confuse your AC.
✅ Fix: Check the location and settings. A smart thermostat may be a great upgrade!

🌿 4. Dirty Outdoor Unit (Condenser Coils)
Your outdoor AC unit needs to release heat. When it’s covered in leaves, dirt, or grass clippings, it struggles to cool your home.
✅ Fix: Gently clean the outdoor unit with a hose—or let us handle it for you.

⚙️ 5. Compressor or Fan Motor Failure
If your AC is running but not cooling at all, it could be a compressor or fan issue—which are more serious mechanical problems.
✅ Fix: These require professional diagnostics, especially for systems 10+ years old.
