- 1Check your thermostat — is it set to COOL and below current room temperature?
- 2Check the circuit breaker — has the HVAC breaker tripped?
- 3Check the air filter — a clogged filter can cause the system to shut down
- 4Check the outdoor unit — is it running? Is it blocked by debris?
- 5Check the drain line — a clogged condensate drain triggers many shutdowns
- 6If none of these fix it, call a professional
