There are a few reasons why this happens, from simple adjustments to a more complex fault. Let\u2019s explore each possible reason and learn some practical solutions to keep that refreshing cold air flowing.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the\">Culprit #1: Fan Is Set to \u201cOn\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>The most common reason your air conditioner starts cold but then blows warm air is because the fan setting on your thermostat is set to \u201cOn\u201d instead of \u201cAuto.\u201d With this setting, the cooling cycle starts and stops as necessary, but the fans always stay running, potentially sending warm air through the vents.<\/p>\n<p>It can be useful to set the fan to \u201cOn\u201d sometimes, especially if you\u2019re doing something that requires better air circulation and filtration. However, it\u2019s best to keep the setting to \u201cAuto\u201d in most cases. When the fan only runs during the cooling cycle, cool air will be all you get.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Culprit #2: Incorrect Thermostat Settings and Malfunctions<\/h2>\n<p>Basic thermostats have auto, on, fan, cool, and heat settings. Newer thermostats give you the ability to schedule temperature settings in advance as the day progresses.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re getting warm airflow from your air conditioner, check your thermostat settings to be sure they\u2019re as you intend. Change the batteries if they\u2019re running low, and wipe the exterior so dust won\u2019t collect inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You can also check to make sure the thermostat is properly connecting. There are prongs on the back of the thermostat face, and if they\u2019re missing or bent, it can interfere with normal operation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If all else fails, ask your HVAC technician if a new thermostat may be necessary.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Culprit #3: Dirty or Missing Air Filters<\/h2>\n<p>When the air filters get clogged, your system is not able to pull as much air into the air handler, and there\u2019s more strain put on the blower and other essential parts of the air conditioner. This could be one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/hvac\/guides\/5-reasons-why-your-air-conditioner-is-constantly-running\/\">reasons why your AC runs constantly<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Missing filters are another significant concern, since their absence can cause the evaporator coils to get clogged up with dust, dirt, dander, and hair. Dirty coils can cause your air conditioner to malfunction or even freeze.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1621\" height=\"1081\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-201388 lazyload\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-1621x1081.jpeg 1621w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-1536x1025.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm.jpeg 2048w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1621px) 100vw, 1621px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-1621x1081.jpeg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1621\" height=\"1081\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-1621x1081.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-201388 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-1621x1081.jpeg 1621w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm-1536x1025.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Air-conditioner-repairman-removing-air-filter-due-to-AC-blowing-cold-air-then-warm.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1621px) 100vw, 1621px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.epa.gov\/2014\/04\/27\/earth-mont-tip-change-your-hvac-system-filter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EPA suggests<\/a>\u00a0that every homeowner\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/hvac\/guides\/how-to-change-air-filters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">change their air filters<\/a>\u00a0at a minimum every three months. However, not every homeowner should wait that long, and you should change your air filter as soon as you see that it is dirty.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"low\">Culprit #4: Low Refrigerant Levels<\/h2>\n<p>Refrigerant is the lifeblood of your air conditioner. If there\u2019s a freon leak or you have low levels, your air conditioner will struggle to stay at the temperature you need it to.<\/p>\n<p>You can prevent refrigerant issues by having your whole air conditioner inspected and tuned up a few times per year. Make sure your technician evaluates the condenser coils, outdoor and indoor units, ductwork, refrigerant levels, fan motors, and refrigerant lines.<\/p>\n<p>Fixing refrigerant-related issues is not a DIY project due to the environmental and health risks involved. Instead, call an EPA <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/section608\/section-608-technician-certification-requirements\">Section 608<\/a>-certified HVAC professional for the job.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Culprit #5: Dirty or Damaged Ductwork<\/h2>\n<p>Ductwork damage can cause hot air to blow out of your HVAC vents, decreases your air conditioner\u2019s efficiency, and puts more strain on the components.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>To prevent ductwork issues, have your ducts professionally cleaned every few years or as needed. You should also consider sealing and insulating ducts if you haven\u2019t already, especially in unconditioned spaces like attics and crawl spaces.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-201389 lazyload\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Did-You-Know-home-air-conditioner-starts-cold-then-gets-warm-Facts.png 600w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Did-You-Know-home-air-conditioner-starts-cold-then-gets-warm-Facts-300x150.png 300w\" data-lazy-data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Did-You-Know-home-air-conditioner-starts-cold-then-gets-warm-Facts.png\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Did-You-Know-home-air-conditioner-starts-cold-then-gets-warm-Facts.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-201389 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Did-You-Know-home-air-conditioner-starts-cold-then-gets-warm-Facts.png 600w, https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Did-You-Know-home-air-conditioner-starts-cold-then-gets-warm-Facts-300x150.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dirty2\">Culprit #6: Evaporator Coil Problems<\/h2>\n<p>The evaporator coil absorbs heat from indoor air \u2014 essentially, it\u2019s where the magic happens in your air conditioner. Dirty coils won\u2019t cool air efficiently, and frozen coils won\u2019t cool air at all.<\/p>\n<p>Look behind the air filter to check the coils for damage or ice. If you see any issues, turn your air conditioner off and call a professional for repair. You should also schedule professional coil cleaning as part of annual AC maintenance.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Culprit #7: Electrical Problems<\/h2>\n<p>If one of the components in your air conditioner isn\u2019t getting enough power, it could lead to warm air blowing out of the vents.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Check the circuit breaker by your outdoor AC unit, and reset it if you find it\u2019s been tripped. Set the disconnect switch near the unit to the \u201cOn\u201d position, and see what happens.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If problems persist, you could have either a wiring issue or a faulty capacitor. At that point, there\u2019s too much risk trying to fix the problem yourself, and you should call your HVAC company or a licensed electrician. \u00a0<\/p>\n<div id=\"hm-faq-block_82be959aa5c9597d55a6683531edcaaa 1\" class=\"hm-faq hm-faq--two-column\">\n<h2 class=\"hm-faq__title \" data-toc-text=\"Frequently Asked Questions\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<div class=\"hm-faq__item\">\n<h3 class=\"faqQuestion accordion mb-0\">\n                        How do I fix my AC that starts cold then gets warm?                    <\/h3>\n<div class=\"faqAnswer panel\">\n<p>First, check your thermostat\u2019s fan setting and make sure it\u2019s on \u201cAuto.\u201d If that doesn\u2019t work, check your HVAC filter and replace it if it\u2019s dirty.
