This week, while I was outside in the yard pulling weeds, I heard a weird noise coming from my neighbor’s yard.
After listening for a while, I realized it was coming from their Heating & A/C condenser.
If you don’t know what an Heating & A/C condenser is, it is the outside portion of a split Heating & A/C unit. I live close to my neighbor, so I am used to hearing the condenser cycle on & off. And though the condenser is a bit noisy, this noise was unlike the proper noise I would hear. It sounded like there was some kind of metal loose inside the condenser. And after listening for about a minute or so, I realized that the noise wasn’t going away! So, of course, I went over to my neighbor’s condo & let him know about the noise that I was hearing coming from the Heating & A/C condenser… He wasn’t aware that it was making any weird noises. In fact, he said the air conditioner component was laboring & cooling the inside of his condo perfectly fine. I am not sure if he contacted his Heating & A/C contractor, but if I heard a weird noise coming from my Heating & A/C unit, that would be the first thing that I would do. Weird noises usually indicate that there is something wrong. And even if the component is functioning officially, it would be better to get the component evaluated to identify the noise & get it fixed. Afterall, if there is something wrong with the unit, it would be better to identify the concern before it becomes a greater one.
