What's Causing the Problem
Georgetown-specific causes based on 3,200+ service calls. We've seen these exact failure patterns in Wolf Ranch, Sun City, Berry Creek, and Teravista homes.
Failed Start/Run Capacitor
The #1 cause of complete AC shutdown in Georgetown. Capacitors store the charge needed to start the compressor and fan motor. When they fail, the system won't start at all — or starts briefly then shuts down.
Tripped Breaker / Electrical Fault
Georgetown's summer power fluctuations cause breaker trips. A breaker that won't reset after one trip indicates a compressor drawing too many amps.
Failed Contactor
The contactor is the relay that switches high-voltage power to the outdoor unit. When the contacts burn out (common in high-heat cycles), the outdoor unit won't turn on.
Low Refrigerant Safety Trip
Modern HVAC systems have low-pressure sensors. When refrigerant drops below a safe threshold, the system locks out to prevent compressor damage.
Thermostat or Control Board Issue
A dead thermostat battery, wiring fault, or failed control board can prevent the system from sending the start signal. Often diagnosed and fixed in one visit.
Dirty Air Filter (Airflow Restriction)
A completely blocked filter triggers a high-temperature safety shutoff. Check this first — it's free.
