Understanding normal operating sounds

When your air conditioner is operating normally,

you will hear sounds such as:

Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing

a “pinging” or “clicking” sound. Water droplets

help to cool the condenser.

Air movement from the fan, especially on high

fan speed settings.

Clicks from the thermostat cycle.

Sounds also may be caused by house construc-

tion-such as vibration of the unit due to wall

construction or unsteady window mounting area.

Saving energy

You can help save energy by following the tips

below.

Improve your home’s insulation. Seal all doors

and windows. Close the fireplace flue.

Close all blinds and drapes on sunny sides of

the house. Add window awnings.

. Keep the air filter clean.

Do not block the airflow with drapes or furniture.

Ventilate the attic. High temperatures in the

attic add to the air conditioner’s cooling load.

Try not to use heat-producing appliances during

the hottest part of the day.

. Turn off lights and appliances when they are

not needed.

. Keep heat registers and cool-air returns closed.

Use exhaust venting fans when cooking, doing

laundry or bathing.
