AC Compressor Replacement in Tampa, FL
AC systems rely on outdoor compressors to cool indoor air. Ensure yours is always up to par by calling our professional team!
Refrigerant travels through evaporator coils and absorbs surrounding heat, evaporating before entering the condenser coils. The refrigerant then releases the heat outside your home. But if you ignore the signs you need an AC compressor replacement in Tampa, FL, the cooling process halts.
The compressor applies pressure to the refrigerant, releasing its absorbed heat and reverting it into a liquid. The Freon travels back to the evaporator coils to repeat these steps, but it won’t absorb heat without that pressure. B&B Professional Plumbing & Air Conditioning is here to replace a broken compressor to get your unit running again.

When Should You Suspect a Faulty Compressor?
Since it takes the refrigerant cycling through the coils multiple times to effectively cool, and a faulty compressor limits absorption, you’ll notice a lower cooling capacity. That means you’ll have a warmer indoor climate. Unfortunately, this causes more than just uncomfortable quarters, such as:
- Lower efficiency: With indoor temperatures remaining higher longer, your unit long cycles to produce your desired temperature. In doing so, your system places excessive strain on internal components, causing them to deteriorate prematurely.
- Loud noises: Banging, rattling, or squealing noises from your outdoor unit mean your compressor is struggling to pressurize the refrigerant.
- Leaks: Water leaks occur when compressor damage causes freezing within the unit. The warm air condenses, or coils freeze and thaw, causing pooling. Unfortunately, Freon also leaks from a damaged compressor, causing low refrigerant levels.
- Compressor not turning on: Whether due to an electrical malfunction, overheating, or a completer breakdown, the compressor can refuse to turn on altogether. You’ll need a reliable AC repair in Tampa, FL.
What Are the Benefits of a Replacement?
If you allow a bad compressor to affect internal components, you’re paving the way to more frequent breakdowns and constant repairs and replacements. If you need more than two repairs seasonally, or one repair costs at least half your original unit price, a whole unit replacement becomes necessary for regaining unit efficiency.
An AC compressor replacement in Tampa, FL, also means:
- Regular cycling: Your unit pulls less energy from your utility grid, lowering electricity bills and reducing your carbon footprint.
- Better indoor air quality: Leaking water encourages mold growth. The fungus affects your respiratory system and causes illnesses. Worse yet, refrigerant leaks (resembling water) are toxic and need immediate remedying.
- Higher cooling capacity: The weather down south is no joke. It can cause anything from lethargy to heat stroke. But with compressor repair or replacement, you’ll receive higher cooling power during each cycle.
