Tempstar Central Air Conditioner Parts

Tempstar Central Air Conditioner Parts & Repair Solutions

Tempstar air conditioning systems are built tough, but capacitors, condenser fan motors, and compressors wear out over time. When your Tempstar unit stops cooling, hums without starting, or runs hot, the right OEM replacement part gets it back to work fast. We stock genuine Tempstar parts designed to match your system's exact specs—no guesswork, no compatibility issues.

Start with your model number to find the exact parts your unit needs. Whether you're dealing with a failed run capacitor, a seized fan motor, or a tripped thermal fuse, we've got it in stock and ready to ship.

• Unit won't start, compressor hums: Run capacitor or starter solenoid failure
• No airflow, exterior unit not running: Condenser fan motor or fan blade obstruction
• No cooling, compressor won't kick on: Capacitor, fuse, or compressor issue
• Breaker trips repeatedly: Thermal fuse, capacitor short, or motor load problem
• Exterior covers cracked or missing: Condenser cover or grille replacement

Tempstar Central Air Conditioner Parts: Questions & Troubleshooting

What's the most common reason a Tempstar AC won't start?

A failed run capacitor is the #1 culprit. You'll hear the compressor hum but it won't turn over, or the unit simply won't respond to the thermostat. Capacitors store electrical energy to kick-start the compressor motor—when they fail, the motor is stranded. Replacing a bad capacitor is fast and affordable, and it solves the problem in most cases.

How do I find my Tempstar model number?

Look on the metal nameplate attached to the side or back of your outdoor condenser unit. The model number is usually labeled as "Model:" followed by a series of letters and numbers. Write it down exactly as it appears, including any dashes or prefixes. If the plate is weathered and hard to read, check your original paperwork or HVAC documentation from installation.

Can I use parts from other ICP brands in my Tempstar unit?

Tempstar shares the ICP manufacturing family with Comfortmaker, Heil, Arcoaire, and Grandaire. Many parts are cross-compatible, but always verify the model number and part specifications before ordering. OEM parts from your exact Tempstar model help support proper fit, electrical ratings, and model-specific fit and performance. A good approach is to sticking with genuine Tempstar parts unless explicitly cross-referenced.

Why is my Tempstar running but not cooling?

Check the condenser fan first—if it's not spinning, airflow blockage or a failed fan motor prevents heat rejection. A weak or failed compressor, low refrigerant charge, or a restricted metering device can also stop cooling. Start with visual inspection of the outdoor unit for debris, then test electrical parts like the capacitor and thermal fuse with a multimeter if you're comfortable doing so.

Tempstar Central Air Conditioner Model Number: Where to Look

On Tempstar central air conditioners, start with the metal nameplate on the side or back of the outdoor condenser. If it is not visible there, turn off power and check inside the service access panel. Look for the label marked "Model," then copy every letter, number, dash, and prefix exactly as shown. Enter that model number in the search bar to narrow the full Tempstar parts catalog to parts that fit your unit, including electrical, motor, fan, compressor, and cabinet parts. Using the complete model number removes uncertainty caused by similar-looking systems and helps you identify a compatible replacement faster. That means fewer wrong orders and a faster repair.
