5 Noises that Your Air Conditioner Makes and Their Meaning

If your air conditioner makes some unusual noises while it is working, do not overlook it: it may be a sign that it needs a repair.


Today's air conditioners are quieter than ever. These new units incorporate high sound damping technology. Therefore, if your air conditioner makes some unusual noise while it is working, do not overlook it, it may be a sign that it needs a repair.

The sooner you can determine what is causing the noise, the better; this will allow you to solve whatever problem your air conditioner has, right away.

1. One of the most common noises is rattling inside the unit. This type of noise may be a sign that there is a loose or broken piece inside. Another cause may be that the compressor needs to be replaced.

2. Metallic sound. Also a sign that there may be some loose piece inside, so the compressor probably needs to be replaced. This sound can also indicate that the indoor or outdoor fan and its blades are loose and hit other parts of the interior of the unit. These are problems that require fast action to avoid major problems.

3. Snapping. This sound during startup and shutdown is normal in the operation of the system. However, a permanent snapping sound is not. It could be a sign that the control or the thermostat is defective.

4.  Buzzing from your outdoor unit could mean:

- Loose parts.
- Debris accumulation.
- The outdoor fan motor is loose or about to fail.
- Fan blades are loose or out of balance.
- The copper lines outside collide with something.
- The condenser should be cleaned.
- The air filter must be changed.
- The coolant leaks and the air conditioner freezes.

5. Screeching. The fan motors of the outdoor and the indoor unit chirp loudly when they are malfunctioning. Some units make this sound when turned on. However, it should be possible to identify if it is a sound that it always makes or if it is new.
