A new noise is wear announcing itself, usually weeks before the part actually fails. Here is what each kind of noise points at, and how long you realistically have before it stops being a noise complaint.
Less dense air means more running time for the same result, and the extra hours show up as bearing and mount noise earlier than the service interval assumes.
Evaporator or condenser fan bearings wear out gradually, producing noise well before the fan actually stops running.
Cabinet panels or compressor mounts that have loosened over time can resonate against nearby surfaces.
Based on symptoms like this, these are the components our technicians check first. The exact part depends on your model and what we find during diagnosis.
