FAQs
Q: Why won't my AC turn on in Washington?A: Most common causes are a failed capacitor, burned contactor, tripped breaker, or loss of thermostat signal. Capacitor and contactor failure accelerate in DC's summer heat — both are same-day fixes in Washington.
Q: My AC makes a clicking sound but won't start — what does that mean in Washington?A: Usually a failed capacitor preventing the compressor from starting. The click is the contactor engaging — the capacitor isn't giving the compressor the start boost it needs. Common call in Washington summer heat.
