There are numerous important factors that should never be ignored when installing an air conditioning system. A thorough analysis of the anticipated air conditioned space is required taking into consideration things like square footage and whatever other factors needed in order for a properly sized unit.

Air conditioning units are designed to operated uninterruptedly potentially removing excess humidity while providing a cooling affect at the same time. However,  an over-sized unit will constantly run both starting & stopping leading to a decreased lifespan along with other potential both mechanical and electrical problems.

Needless to say, a unit must be properly charged and both its pressures and amperage draw checked when first started.

Air Conditioning repairs are usually a result of simple neglect. Low refrigerant charge, as well as an over-charge, frozen and/or dirty evaporator and/or condenser coils, clogged drains, improper thermostat set points and other factors can lead to small & minor air conditioning repairs -  or possibly complete compressor failure.

Ambient temperature is a huge factor which affects an air conditioner's potential and should never be over-looked or ignored.

Both mechanical and electrical problems are sometimes directly related. A system trying to start under a high head pressure will draw excessive current @ start up causing the compressor's overload to open & break the circuit until the pressure drops and the protector closes once again.
