What should I do if my AC is blowing warm air intermittently?

If your AC blows warm air on and off, check simple causes first, then schedule a diagnostic. In Roanoke and Salem, this often comes down to airflow or control settings.

  • Set thermostat to Cool and 3–5°F below room temp; replace batteries if needed.
  • Replace a dirty filter and open all supply/return vents.
  • Clear debris around the outdoor unit; check the condensate drain for clogs.
  • Verify the breaker and outdoor disconnect are on. If it persists, a technician can assess refrigerant charge, capacitors, and thermostat performance.
