Restore your NAC024AKA1 central air conditioner running efficiently with genuine OEM replacement parts from Repair Clinic. The NAC024AKA1 is a two-ton residential outdoor condensing unit using R-410A Puron refrigerant. ICP, Heil, Tempstar, Arcoaire, and WeatherKing are all International Comfort Products brand designations sharing the same platform engineering and fully interchangeable service components. The NAC024AKA1 is the two-ton configuration in the NAC series, the smallest standard tonnage below the two-and-a-half-ton NAC030AKA1. The dual run capacitor, contactor, and outdoor fan motor account for the vast majority of service calls. Repair Clinic stocks genuine ICP OEM parts for the NAC024AKA1 including the ICP capacitor parts, ICP contactor parts, ICP fan motor parts, and ICP high-pressure switch parts.

NAC024AKA1: Two-Ton Outdoor Condensing Unit Service
Annual capacitance testing of the dual run capacitor before the cooling season is the most cost-effective preventive maintenance step for the NAC024AKA1. Match all microfarad values from the installed capacitor label before ordering a replacement. The central air conditioner repair help section covers capacitor testing and contactor diagnosis for this platform.
Most Replaced Parts on the NAC024AKA1
Dual Run Capacitor for the NAC024AKA1
The dual run capacitor provides starting and running torque for both the compressor and outdoor fan motor. A reading more than 10% below the rated value causes the compressor to hard-start. Match all three microfarad values from the installed capacitor label before ordering.
NAC024AKA1 Contactor
The contactor closes the 240-volt compressor circuit at every cooling cycle start. Pitted or burned contacts generate heat that transfers to the compressor motor terminals. Replace a contactor with visibly eroded contacts before compressor winding damage occurs.
Outdoor Fan Motor for the NAC024AKA1
The outdoor fan motor pulls air through the condenser coil. Test the run capacitor before ordering a replacement motor, as a failed capacitor produces identical slow-start symptoms at a fraction of the motor replacement cost.
High-Pressure Switch for the NAC024AKA1
A high-pressure switch that trips repeatedly under normal ambient conditions points to a blocked condenser coil, failed fan motor, or refrigerant overcharge rather than a failed switch diaphragm.

NAC024AKA1 Parts FAQ
What is the NAC024AKA1 and what ton size is it?
The NAC024AKA1 is a two-ton residential outdoor condensing unit using R-410A Puron refrigerant. ICP, Heil, Tempstar, Arcoaire, and WeatherKing are all International Comfort Products brand designations sharing the same platform engineering and fully interchangeable service components. The NAC024AKA1 is the two-ton configuration in the NAC series, the smallest standard tonnage below the two-and-a-half-ton NAC030AKA1.
Why does my NAC024AKA1 hum but not start?
A unit that hums but does not start has most commonly failed at the dual run capacitor. Test the capacitor with a digital capacitance meter before testing any other component.
How does the ICP NAC024AKA1 differ from the NAC030AKA1?
The NAC024AKA1 is a two-ton unit while the NAC030AKA1 is a two-and-a-half-ton unit within the ICP NAC residential outdoor condensing unit series. The dual run capacitor carries different compressor-section microfarad ratings between the two tonnages.
How often should I test the capacitor on the NAC024AKA1?
Test the capacitor annually before the cooling season. A reading more than 10% below the rated microfarad value indicates a weakening capacitor that should be replaced before it fails under peak summer load.
