Central Air Conditioner Hard Start Kit I AC Parts

A hard start kit is an accessory designed to assist the air conditioner during the start-up process. It provides an extra boost of power to the compressor, reducing the strain and making it easier to start. Our Central Air Conditioner Hard Start Kit is usually installed by a professional HVAC technician and can be beneficial for older AC units, units in regions with frequent power fluctuations, or cooling systems experiencing difficulty during start-up.
A central air hard start kit comprises various components, including a start capacitor and a potential relay. When the compressor receives the signal to start, the start capacitor provides an extra burst of energy, helping the compressor overcome initial resistance and start smoothly. The potential relay then senses when the motor reaches the desired speed and switches off the start capacitor, allowing the compressor to run normally.
Signs You Might Need a Central Air Conditioner Hard Start Kit
  • Frequent Tripping: If your air conditioner has been frequently tripping the circuit breaker during start-up, it may be an indication that the compressor is struggling to kick-start.
  • Increased Energy Bills: A struggling compressor may consume more energy during start-up, leading to higher electricity bills.
  • System Age: Older air conditioning systems, especially those with original compressors, can benefit from the added boost provided by a hard start kit.
When considering a hard start kit for your central air conditioner, it is crucial to consult with a professional HVAC technician. They have the expertise to evaluate your cooling system's needs and properly install the central air hard start kit for optimal performance. Additionally, regular maintenance and inspections will ensure the continued efficiency and effectiveness of the central air conditioner hard start kit.
