Failing air conditioners tend to make different noises that are difficult for a novice to identify or diagnose. Screeching and squealing could mean there\u2019s a faulty belt. Rattling sounds may be representative of problems with the fans, motor, or compressors.<\/p>\n Beyond checking your thermostat, clearing debris from around your outdoor unit, and changing the filters \u2013 suspect noises best corrected by a professional.

If your system is several years old, it may be more critical to arrange for a professional inspection on integral components of your air conditioner.
