Crosley central air conditioner safety tips
- Conduct yearly maintenance. Have a HVAC service technician inspect, clean and perform required maintenance on your central air conditioning system annually. The service technician will examine the unit thoroughly for possible safety hazards such as worn components and shorts in the electrical system.
- Change the air filters regularly. The air filters remove contaminants from the air in your home. Use allergen air filters to remove dust and pollen that can cause breathing problems.
- Disconnect electrical power from the central air conditioner anytime you perform maintenance or access internal wiring or components to complete repairs.
- Read and follow all operational and safety instructions in the owner's manual for your central air conditioner.
- Have a service technician examine and repair the central air conditioner whenever it fails and you're not able to fix the problem with simple troubleshooting steps described in the owner's manual.

How to diagnose common Crosley central air conditioner problems
Here are some central air conditioner problems you might run into, and what to do about them.
- Won’t turn on. Check the house circuit breaker for the central air conditioner to make sure it’s turned on. Reset the circuit breaker if it’s tripped. Low air flow can also prevent the central air conditioner from working, so check the air filter and replace the filter if It’s clogged with lint. Check for a clogged evaporator condensate drain pipe because a drain clog can cause the central air conditioner to shut off.
- Lack of air flow through the vents. A clogged air filter can prevent air from flowing through the vents, so replace the air filter if it’s clogged. If the filter isn’t clogged, a problem with the blower fan may be causing low air flow through the vents.
- Makes lots of noise. Bearings in the blower fan can make loud squealing or screeching noise when the central air conditioner runs. Replace the blower fan if its bearings make noise while the fan runs.
