Safety note

If the system is frozen, turn cooling off and allow it to thaw. Do not chip at ice or keep forcing repeated starts.

Start with the symptom

What usually brings the call into dispatch.

The same symptom can have several causes. Black Diamond starts with the condition in front of the technician, not a repair chosen before the visit.

01

Air is warm or weak

The cause may sit at the thermostat, filter, blower, coil, outdoor unit, ductwork, or refrigerant circuit.

02

Water or ice appears

Drainage trouble and frozen coils need different repairs, even when both leave water near the equipment.

03

The unit starts and stops

Short cycling raises wear and often leaves humidity behind even when the thermostat number drops.

What happens next

A clear handoff from phone call to field work.
