Q: AC blowing hot air

asked by on

The AC is blowing hot air even after I added Freon.

It’s likely that either there wasn’t enough refrigerant or there is a problem going on with your air conditioner. For example, a failed pressure switch or compressor wiring can cause this issue. I would set an appointment with a certified mechanic to diagnose your AC problem and get it fixed.
