What to do if the cooling effect of the air conditioner is not good
As the summer heat continues, air conditioning has become an essential appliance in homes and offices. However, among the hotly discussed topics on the Internet recently, the problem of poor air conditioning refrigeration effect has frequently appeared. This article will combine the hot discussions and expert suggestions in the past 10 days to provide you with structured solutions.
1. Analysis of common problems and causes

| Question type | Proportion (whole network data) | Typical symptoms |
|---|---|---|
| Filter clogged | 42% | Small air volume and increased noise |
| Insufficient refrigerant | 28% | Cooling is slow and the internal and external units are frosted |
| Poor heat dissipation of the outdoor unit | 18% | Frequent shutdowns, compressor overheating |
| Voltage is unstable | 7% | Stops working intermittently |
| other reasons | 5% | Remote control failure/sensor damage |
2. Step-by-step solution
1. Basic inspection (users can operate by themselves)
•To clean the filter:After turning off the power, take out the filter, clean it with a soft brush and neutral detergent, dry it and put it back (recommended once a month)
•Check the air outlet:Make sure furniture does not block the air outlet and maintain at least 1 meter of clear space.
•Temperature settings:It is recommended to set the cooling mode to 26-28℃. Too low will cause the compressor to be overloaded.
2. Intermediate maintenance (professionals required)
| Services | Operation content | Recommendation cycle |
|---|---|---|
| Refrigerant testing | Stress testing and supplementation | 2-3 years/time |
| Outdoor machine cleaning | Heat sink deep cleaning | every summer before |
| Circuit detection | Capacitor/Relay Check | 3 years/time |
3. The latest power-saving techniques (data from best-selling products on e-commerce platforms)
•Inverter air conditioner:Choose a new level of energy efficiency product that saves 40% of electricity compared to traditional models
•Intelligent linkage:Equipped with a temperature and humidity sensor, automatic adjustment can be achieved (Xiaomi/Huawei ecological product search volume increased by 65% weekly)
•Shading measures:Installing a sunscreen on the outdoor unit can increase cooling efficiency by 5-8%
4. Emergency handling
If the following occurs, pleasePower off immediatelyAnd contact after-sales service:
• Water leakage from the internal unit accompanied by the smell of burning circuits
• The compressor continues to make abnormal noise (metal friction sound)
• The control panel displays fault codes such as E5/E6
5. Air conditioning maintenance price reference in 2023
| Services | average market price | Warranty coverage |
|---|---|---|
| Fluoride (R32) | 150-300 yuan | Including pressure detection |
| Motherboard repair | 200-500 yuan | Depending on the degree of damage |
| deep cleaning | 80-150 yuan | Complete set of internal and external machines |
6. Preventive maintenance suggestions
• When not in use for a long time: power on once a month to maintain system lubrication
• Extreme weather: Unplug the power supply before a thunderstorm, and avoid working continuously for more than 12 hours on hot days.
• Intelligent monitoring: It is recommended to use "air conditioning companion" equipment to monitor operating status in real time
Through the above structured solutions, 90% of refrigeration problems can be effectively improved. If there is still no effect after trying, it is recommended to make an appointment for testing through official channels to avoid secondary damage caused by informal repairs.
