WHY YOUR AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR FAIL OR GOT DAMAGED?
There are several reasons why an HVAC compressor may fail. Some common causes include:
1. Overheating: If the compressor gets too hot, it can lead to internal damage and failure. This can be caused by dirty coils, low refrigerant levels, or a malfunctioning fan.
2. Electrical issues: Problems with the electrical components, such as faulty wiring or a failed capacitor, can cause the compressor to fail.
3. Refrigerant leaks: If there is a leak in the refrigerant system, the compressor may run without enough refrigerant, leading to overheating and failure.
4. Contaminants in the system: Dirt, debris, or moisture can enter the HVAC system and cause damage to the compressor and other components.
5. Age and wear: Compressors have a limited lifespan, and as they age, they may become less efficient and more prone to failure.
6. Improper maintenance: Lack of regular maintenance, such as not cleaning or replacing air filters, can put additional strain on the compressor and lead to failure.
