What Constitutes as an AC Emergency

Temperatures are rising. You may have already booted up your air conditioning system to make sure the system is functioning right. But what do you do if it’s not? It’s getting warm, your AC system is acting up, and you want to get in touch someone but it’s nighttime and you aren’t confident this is considered an AC emergency that you’ll be charged more for. You have probably heard that Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning is available around the clock for emergency AC repair, but what actually counts as a 24 hour AC repair emergency? And how much will is cost?

Please know that you can always call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, anytime of day, every day of the year. Our customer service representatives are available live, at all times to help decide if a technician needs to come out immediately or if it’s something that can wait until morning.

When trying to evaluate the severity on your own, here are some issues where you should go ahead and call us.

Squeeling Sounds

There are a few reasons that your AC system might be making weird, screaming noises. One common issue may be that the fan belt got loose. Standard maintenance can help avoid this issue, but sometimes things happen and you need to have an expert come out for an AC repair appointment. Another reason your AC system could be making a loud, screeching noise is that the compressor is working at a high level of pressure, which can be hazardous. If a sound seems excessive, shut down your AC system immediately and call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning for an emergency AC repair appointment.

Strange Smells

A burning odor coming from your air conditioning unit is normally an indication of an electrical complication or a part has become so overheated that it’s literally burning. If your air conditioner smells like it’s burning, that is absolutely an emergency AC repair. Call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning right away for 24/7 AC repair.

No Air Flow

If your air conditioning unit doesn’t seem to be turning on, or you can’t feel any air flowing, this could be a sign that the cooling system has failed. The source could be a poorly calibrated thermostat, a complication with the blower, or your air conditioner could have finally kicked the bucket. If the air conditioner isn’t generating air flow, or the air that’s blowing is warm instead of cool, go ahead and call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, especially if there is extreme weather, so we can get an expert out to make sure your home is safe and comfortable. Not having cool air in severe heat definitely constitutes a 24 hour AC repair.
