What the AC Compressor Does

A heat pump system provides both heating and cooling by moving heat instead of generating it. In summer, it pulls heat out of your home; in winter, it reverses the flow and brings heat inside from the air outdoors.


If the compressor stops working:

  • The refrigerant won’t circulate properly
  • Your system won’t produce cool air
  • The AC may short cycle or shut down completely

Signs You Need Compressor Repair

Your AC compressor may be failing even if the system appears to be running. Each symptom below reflects a micro-context of potential compressor failure and should be addressed quickly.

AC Is Blowing Warm or Hot Air

AC Is Blowing Warm or Hot Air

When the air conditioner runs but only produces warm air, your compressor may not be compressing the refrigerant properly, leading to ineffective cooling.

Buzzing or Clicking Noises From the Outdoor Unit?

Buzzing or Clicking Noises From the Outdoor Unit?

Strange noises often indicate electrical issues or mechanical faults inside the compressor. Clicking could signal a relay issue, while buzzing may mean a failing motor.

Circuit Breaker Keeps Tripping

Leaks around the compressor or refrigerant lines could signal excessive pressure or internal cracks, reducing performance and risking total failure.

Visible Refrigerant Leaks

If your circuit breaker repeatedly trips when the AC is on, the compressor could be overloading the electrical system due to internal malfunction.

System Turns Off on Its Own or Won’t Start

This behavior may stem from a seized compressor, electrical failure, or a faulty capacitor preventing proper startup.

Higher Than Normal Energy Bills

If your utility bills are rising unexpectedly, an inefficient or overworking compressor could be the cause. A failing compressor uses more electricity to produce less cooling.
